Six years ago...

[CTID1977]

...they signed Phil Jones and we signed Kun Aguero

 

[bluetaco]

Aww bless them

 

[dickie davies]

And I still do not understand why Kun ever challenged Phil the face
There is only going to be one winner in a gurning contest

 

[Sir Joe Aguero]

'Jones, arguably the way he is looking, could be our best ever player.'

 

[Manchester la la la la]

I remember his debut against Swansea, came on late second half, scored two goals, one an absolute peach from miles out. Knew we had something special then.

In fact, the whole of that first half of the season was just magical, we thrashed everyone week in week out

I loved that début.

Kun scored two goals that perfectly exemplified his all-round goal scoring excellence.

As you say, the cracker from outside the box, and the brilliant poacher's goal from very close range.

He also provided an excellent assist for Merlin that night.

I feel a song coming on!

They are absolutely, and without any hesitation, the worst at over-hyping their own players. I know fans do it, but their whole organisation buy into it. They have previous on every single going player they'e bought, or given a debut to. The next George Best/Ronaldo/Duncan Edwards/that cunnt Scholes etc, etc.

After the last game where Herrop scored against Palace I remember seeing many on twitter talking about how he was going to be their next big thing, fast forward a couple months and he's at PNE pmsl

Is that a legit quote??

 

[davymcfc]

And what a legend he turned out to be.

Aguero has been on too.

Never seen a debut like it. All those lofty expectations and he surpassed them in twenty minutes. Just electrifying.

Trevor Francis....Ali Bernabia.....but after Kun I knew we would be CHAMPIONS.

I would have to add Robinho to that list for excitement but yes Aguero was the goal threat we lacked the previous year.

Meanwhile, at the Stadium of Light.......



Sincerely, from the bottom of my heart - Thanks Phil Jones. The look on your face capped the whole day off for me.

 

[Sir Joe Aguero]

Is that a legit quote??

Yep. Knew he'd lost it then.

"Jones, arguably the way he is looking, could be our best ever player. I think Jones may be one of the best players we have ever had, not matter where we play him. At 21 years of age, he is going to be a phenomenal player. I think he can play anywhere on the pitch.

"He has such a massive influence, with his instinct and reading of the game. He has a drive about him."

 

[BongoBlue]

Gormless fucker.

Thank you Phil. Blessed

Wash your mouth out Bongo.

It's easy (for me) to forget that Sergio's 1st season ended in the 3-2 QPR moment, seems like he'd been there for seasons by then
