He did always try, and went on to have a good career really. I always felt he just wasn't anywhere near the standard of central defenders he was playing alongside, and was too slow. He was far better than Richards and post-injuries Okore though I suppose. I'm standing by Leonhardsen though. I tried to find the quote from GT at the time saying he went to watch a Spurs reserve match, saw Leonhardsen on the team sheet and though "I forgot he was still playing" and signed him. Bizarre. A few other names I had on the list were Isaiah Osbourne, Dave Farrell, Simon Dawkins, Carl Tiler, Yacouba Sylla, Salifou (I can't even remember his first name), Emile Heskey, Alan Lee, Fabio Ferraresi and David Ginola. Maybe you're joking but Salifou's first name was the best thing about him......... Moustapha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post NurembergVillan Posted January 5, 2017 Author Moderator Popular Post Share Posted January 5, 2017 The 12th Day of Crapness, and another gift from Paul Lambert. Even in his best days he wouldn't have been good enough for us, but we signed him on loan when he was past even that. Fat, slow, no composure. None of the qualities you'd want in a striker. Yet this guy had them all. The only positive is that his surname was Villa related. I'm signing off with Grant Holt... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Grant Holt is pretty much the worst example of a "man" I can think of. Held Norwich to ransom over a new contract and then once he got it put on about 3 stone and pretty much retired. Absolute sh*thouse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
