rodders0223 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Krancjar playing for Rangers today. Only 31, would have thought he was 41 the way he moved. Always liked him. Shame. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a real prospect for them in those days. I know he's retired and has had major issues off the pitch but anyone have any up to date articles on what he's up to now? Last I heard he was or owned his own Estate Agents and seemed to be doing well for himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Notts Forest squad must have a good few contenders Mancienne, Perquis, Fox among others. still the best and most random is Stojkovic in goal. Was always a fan in an entertaining way as he is capable of the spectacular and also of some awesome blunders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been at Brentford ages now. He was very highly rated at Chelsea though as you say. Highly rated by them so that they could loan him out with the other 8,000 loanees.

Midfielder Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Nii Lamptey! Although I have seen a forum member have him as his avatar in about this place. Sasa Curcic and Garry Parker. External to Villa, from back in the day.... Georgi Kinkladze. He was something else at the height of his form for Citeh. honourable mentions to Faustino Asprilla and Vinnie Jones. Kids: he was actually a "footballer" back in the day and even became Welsh too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been quite good for Brentford but his time there so far has been regularly interrupted by injury. From what I've seen of him this season and last, there's definitely a player in there. You have to wonder how many players the likes of Chelsea and Man City are ruining by not giving them competitive football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never rated the lad, he played week in week out for Boro and did absolutely nothing. Just one of those players who doesn't do much, doesn't influence the game, just drifts by.

I don't want to play the "I've seen him more than you" game as I never really paid him any mind before he arrived at Brentford. I've seen almost all of his (home) games for Brentford though and I see much more in him than you clearly do. His passing is excellent, occasionally drifts in and out of games but has been pretty influential when he has played. He's had an awful lot of injuries in his short career though. Oh and he was voted young player of the year by Middlesbrough. Edited September 21, 2016 by choffer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 (edited) FWIW I think he was the only young player in the squad that year. Edited September 21, 2016 by rodders0223 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mantis Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Michael Owen. Can't believe he's only 36. Amazing to think that he was already past his peak by his mid 20s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
