Popular Post ShanksRFC 3,866 Posted January 9, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 9, 2019 Nice read that! He's the type of player I will always look out for and hope he does well even after he leaves. A definate star in the making.

SeparateEntityMyArse 53,260 Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Cheers Esky. The lad deserves all the riches he gets from football. I'll be gutted when he goes but fully appreciate his drive to get to the top of the game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanoli 4,623 Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Amazing. You can tell he has fought tooth and nail for everything he has every time he steps on a football pitch, completely different breed and we cannot let him go before that trophy is back where it belongs. Ive never loved a player more. Dan Deacon 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prince George 600 Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Enjoyable read, Alfie will go on to greater things however seems the type of person that will always remember his humble beginning. Like just recently going home and taking strips with him for local teams. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WATP-FOREVER 5,231 Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 A remarkable young man - he should gain the utmost respect from everyone. And even with his rural upbringing, I am sure he hates child abuse. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BILLYBOY50 1,638 Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Great read you can see the way Alfredo is so determined to succeed that he will go right to the top in the game. And we all must enjoy him while we have him because there is no doubt our Alfie will eventually move on to a new challenge but let's hope he helps us secure 55 first.

Popular Post denya 1,661 Posted January 9, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 9, 2019 Majority of football players here grow up in humble places. It is maybe little exagerrated story but good that a newspaper there write about him. He is definitely not on back pages of newspapers here though, this is very exagerrated and selling fruit is very normal everyplace here, I have family that live in Cordoba near Cereté and it is not 4th most poor area of Colombia this I am very sure but most people here live in humble lives. They could write articles of every player from here just the same. But hope he scores the goals for Rangers to get the 55!

Davie Mr Magic Cooper 515 Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Cheers mate. It was good reading something positive about him rather than the half-arsed garbage we get from the usual agenda driven suspects. Hopefully he'll be celebrating with the rest of us come the end of the season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A guy that age, from that background absolutely bossing Scottish football should clearly be the story, not odd shows of petulance. Scottish football media is an utter fucking embarrassment.
