Good call on Robinho. I was so disappointed when he left Madrid. Can't believe how far he's fallen.

I believed in Andy Van der Meyde too
Newz Bar Legend then

Oh yeah completely forgot resilient Joe f*ckin Cole. When Woy signed him I was ecstatic. I mean the guy was a really good at one point for Chelsea, bordering WC. His debut was unbelievably good too (albeit it was against Rabotnicki in EL). But :facepalm:

Gerrard's Messi comparisons haunt me to this day.

Thought van der Vaart would become world class.
Thought Kaka would be one of the top performers for Real Madrid.

I thought that Lassana diara was smarter than that : taking the n10 at RM and refusing to play fullback Laughing

I thought that Papiss Cissé and every single good player from bundesliga was going to shine in the PL .

i thought robinho could've been more than he turned out, still think rm broke him, and i thought mou was a great manager until he coached us Laughing

Aah, that's the one I was thinking of. So consider this one an update.

Santon, yeah. I was predicting this to be his breakthrough season, but hasn't happened. Like Mole said, there seems to be the talent, but he just can't take the next step to start showcasing it on a regular basis.

I was absolutely certain Pato would win the Ballon D'or at one point.

Thought Thiago Silva would become a Milan legend :'(

Pep in the end was not sent to destroy Bayern. He has been sent to make us less direct.

by El Gunner Mon Mar 24, 2014 9:20 pm

Back when Pedro scored goals in every single competition I used to say that he is a future world player of the year if he just left Barcelona for another top club which would make him more of the focal point Laughing

I thought, and claimed, at first that Jupp Heynckes wouldn't be able to take us beyond mediocrity Very Happy

Thought Ronaldo would be a big game player. Instead, he has consistently flopped in big games for almost a decade.

You are both right

Gil flip flops on subjects so often that chances are you can find completely opposite opinions by him merely months apart on the very same subject

Not always.....

I was wrong about Ratface or Modric if you like. I thought he is just a Typical over hyped Bpl midfielder that get glorified only in the account of workrate but after watching games. I can say he is actually a decent player

by guest_07 Fri Apr 25, 2014 2:03 am

with the talent he have, roman should have no problem to be selected for his 2nd chance in world cup
