tomsky_11 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 He scored a few decent goals in Europe the other week... His first vs. Maccabi Tel Aviv ...and his second Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_eristic Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 I remember the guy having an almost absurd amount of technical ability, but was never able to get things going after he left Porto. His attitude and extreme selfishness (which he could get away with somewhat in Portugal) killed him when he made the move up to Inter, could hardly get on the pitch, probably less than 30 apps in 2 years. I've heard he's doing better in terms of playing for the team at Besiktas, so maybe he's finally getting his act together? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVFC_Hitz Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Yep plays for my adopted Turkish club Beşiktaş. Goes a wandering for about 89 minutes for each game and then produces a quality finish. That said, Turkish defensive quality is questionable. He is a hero here and extremely overpaid.

sir_gary_cahill Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 he was wonderful for porto but he never built on it sadly, he has great natural ability Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lapal_fan Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 reminds me of Taarabt to be honest. Got all the ability in the world, but isn't a team player and is lazy. A real highlights player if ever there was one. If he was driven, he'd be playing for a powerhouse club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lapal_fan Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 He really was. I mean, if you have someone like Mourinho managing you, you should listen and will naturally become a better player. Mourinho really tried with him too. But, y'know, he's a millionaire and plays when he wants to at Besiktas, so who am I to judge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 He was similar to Ronaldo but say what you want about him he has work ethic and always wanted to learn. Quaresma couldnt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
