He had no bottle. I still remember that 70/30(in his favour) against fat wankard, and he bottled it big time and wankard got the ball. Lacked heart and passion i felt.
Not a joke. I liked Riera. He gave us balance that, for at least one season, made us look like real contenders. I'd take a mk2 of that Riera any day of the week.
His first touch was immaculate
I had no problems with Albert, even after the rumours of him sparking Pacheco, these things happen.
As for Assaidi he looked very good. As I Saud in the Young Boys game if you looked at him and Sowing and Saud one was a 20m player and the other was a 3m player, you would be forgiven for getting it wrong
The 5 Live commentator said words to the affect of remember his name you will be hearing a lot more if it.
Suddenly we have gone from a threadbare squad to one with options.

I just dont see Assaidi and Reira as similar type players is all. I liked Albert that year as well
Isn't that the truth Vlad.
That's been our problem in the transfer market - paying premium prices for substandard players as opposed to paying decent prices for "unfashionable" good players.
We've been spectacularly bad at getting bang for our buck for quite a while

last year was a doozy especially.... a-fucking-trociuos
Stewart downing.... Dear God....
i can't believe we may finally have a genuine tricky winger...!
It's been what 15 years since we had one? Riera was enjoyable, but we were starved for quality and relieved we had a left footed player that could beat a man, occasionally and cross the ball occasionally. He wasn't another Antonio Núñez, Smicer, Cheyrou disappointment.
I played as a winger for years at low grassroots level (don't laugh) , and nothing excites me more than a player who can beat his man, and go for goal or hit the byline and cross the ball in. It's a skill we *rarely* see anymore.

This, I did too, though he was more of a steady Eddie, I really like the look of Assaidi, in a different way, he looks as exciting as Sterling does.
I liked Albert too. Remember when he destroyed Villa at Anfield? Poor Nigel Reo Joker was playing RB for them that day.
Reira can't be compared to Assaidi though. Totally different players. Assaidi has pace, hugs the touchline, can attack on either foot and beats players down the line for fun.
Reira on the other hand gave us balance, guile, ball retention and intelligence. He was strong too.
It appears Assaidi can provide that too but looks to have blistering pace and ability to beat player also in his locker.

Yup, well said.
I liked Riera too but some of you went way over the top with the love.
Did you go drinking in the middle of that sentence Vladders.
I think Assaidi is a different kind of player to Riera. These kids coming through now could set us up for the next ten years or so and by adding players like Assaidi to the ones coming through the academy it's not going to cost FSG big bucks which is what they're looking for. We have to unearth gems like this one coz the occasional marquee player they've promised is all bullshit in my opinion.
Possibly only the version with class, style and fans with a great football knowledge.
Yes me and my big thumbvs 😉

Assaidi will be judged in a few months. If you'll indulge me by letting me be a dick for a minute.
He played well in the something cup against WBA. That is all.

*waits for jokes about definition of a minute*
Agreed. The other plus to add to the 20M Vs 3M debate is that these options we've now got - Assaidi, Suso, Yesil, Sterling, etc - all have 10-15 years of football ahead of them as opposed to 3-5.
That's enormous.
It's 60 seconds Gene.
I mentioned to a friend today that if Sinclair turns out to be top notch and has a long career we could be watching him on tv in 2032.
Fuck.
