Crespie6 334 Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 have a look at the Souness years - we seemed to get a major injury to one of our best players every year: Butcher, Durrant, Woods, Kutneszov (1 game in!!), later had players like Seb Rosental who I cant even tell if he was good (just lots of promise), Prodan. these are just the ones I can remember in my head. Mr Google will likely give more Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammer93 15,057 Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Jack Wilshire and Joe Cole, two players who had the world at their feet but both are just injury ravaged time and time again, I wouldn't write Wilshire off but I think he will struggle to fulfil his early potential.

Goianegra 4,682 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Alexandre Pato I'd say that's more a case of him being overhyped at a young age. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
West_Side 1,571 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 I'd say that's more a case of him being overhyped at a young age.Can't believe he's still only 25. Feels like he's been around for ages. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueshoff 11,814 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Prodan was my first thought.And Gazza although he was great was never the same after that injury at Wembley (think it was a cup semi Spurs v Arsenal?). He would have been off the scale and maybe even not self destructed later in life. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
there'sonlyoneamoruso 1,724 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Sebastian Deisler.That's the one! He was looking like he was going to be the mainstay of the German national team, then it all went wrong. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

harlands plater 16,977 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Older Bears will remember a winger we had called Iain McDonald who broke into the first team at 17 and looked a bit special until a knee injury finished him, although he tried to come back with Dundee Utd.

siamthedanger 2,855 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Yeah agree with Jamie Ness..he had some fantastic performances for us including a class showing at Tynecastle. Hopefully young Lewis Macleod won't go the same way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSuedeSambas 53,789 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Ledley King.If it wasn't for his knee problems he would have ended up at a huge club.I think he was absolutely quality. Like the best parts of Rio & Terry merged into one player and I have always rated Rio & Terry pretty highly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
