I was more annoyed by his goal in that 2-2 draw at VP. We were by far the better side and he hadn't done anything in a year. Had to come off the bench and score another turn around shot. Fun fact, we had Bannan and Hogg starting in midfield for us that day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We won at Old trafford anyway six months later. Hurt more drawing 2-2 with them at VP in 2010, we were brilliant second half and that was our chance to beat the jinx against them at VP. Was amazed to look back at the match report and see at 2-0 up Fergie immediately replaced Berbatov and Hernandez and put on Macheda and Obertan (one for this thread) as the front two for last 15 minutes. And we still couldn't beat them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those two were a fruitful combination that season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted January 28, 2018 Author Share Posted January 28, 2018 Phew when I saw Zat had posted I was worried he was watching Leverkusen-Mainz and had noticed Nigel De Jong is now playing for Mainz before I did. Random pick up for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Anthony Pilkington. Just came off the bench for Cardiff. Looked good at Norwich under Lambert then completely disappeared. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has Kieron Richardson retired now, I remember Warnock taking him on last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that he had a trial at Granada along with Nigel Reo Coker when Tony Adams was in charge but hasn't found a club since. Still hasn't publicly announced his retirement it seems.

Then got relegated with bolton. From Wiki: Quote Reo-Coker joined Ipswich Town in October 2012, saying, "Ipswich are a sleeping giant in the Championship — a massive club with a great history. It's the right club at the right time for me and everything has fallen into place."[44] He made twelve appearances before departing the club in January 2013 after turning down the offer of an extended contract until June 2013.

Yeah, he hasn't announced his retirement either. After his trial with Granada he joined IK Start in Norway for 54 days before they released him.

VillaChris Posted February 3, 2018 Author Share Posted February 3, 2018 Bacary Sagna signed for Benevento! Probably still good enough to play for half the premier league but he says he's got disillusioned with the top level being about business now and joining them for the underdog challenge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
