Olof Mellberg


Villastine

Recommended Posts

Easily the most likeable foreign player we've ever had. Maybe Carew would be too, it was a great shame how he left the club.

I adore the guy, probably the last player we had with any sense of loyalty. I remember him agreeing to move to Juve (I was happy for him) and we all thought he was going to take it easy for the last 5/6 months. In those 6 months he played out of position at RB, was outstanding and gave us THAT celebration in the 5-1, Mellberg day, and that great gesture with the shirts.

I'd love to get him back involved with the club in some way.

I'd add Laursen as well

That GIF is exactly how I will remember King Olof, as I was lucky enough to be at that game.

Not the best defender we've had in the last 20 years from a technical point-of-view, but definitely the sort of player you'd want to go into war along-side. Always gave his all whenever he played in claret and blue.

We loved him, and it was clear to see that the feeling was mutual.

Thank you, all the best for the future!

There's only ONE Mellberg!

I named my dog after him! Legend!

And my cat is called Olof. They should be friends.

Our dog's also an Olof, vet's in the Midlands must have them on a regular basis

 

Good job Blose fans are too thick to be vets..................

 

Anyway, good old Olof, have a great retirement.

Keep up with the wrestling, mate!
