Stardog 11 Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 http://www.geocities.com/Colosseum/field/2968/target.html Robert Pires - £5m compared to £4.5m for Scott Brown. How times have changed and standards have slipped. A Jardel at his peak for £4.5m.... I think that's the one most people remember. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del 667 Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 I still think one of our biggest mistakes was Raul Tamudo! We pulled out at the last minute due to medical reasons i think and look at him now! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby 41 Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 worst of all was handing back gattuso, for £1m. enough said. im sure he would still be a ger to this day, Italy star or not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuart_RFC 41 Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Jardel would have been an unbelievable signing. He was near enough signed as well! But we let that 1 slip through our fingers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stardog 11 Posted December 17, 2007 Author Share Posted December 17, 2007 Jardel - 130 goals in 125 for Porto, then 34 in 43 for Galatasaray, then 53 in 49 for Sporting. This was by the time he was 30. We would've had him when he was 24 :computers: :despair: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leiper 0 Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 When you hear of things like that it makes you wonder why the hell these signings were never made. I also heard before we got the opportunity to sign Salas or Rosenthal... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craigy 0 Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 I found this bit interesting in Negris section Filippo Maniero will today join Parma from Verona in a £3.5 million deal. Reports in Italy earlier in the week claimed that the former Sampdoria striker was poised to sign for Rangers. The Ibrox club may now switch their attention to Perugia front man Marco Negri Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chewbacca 8 Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 I was more a youngster at the time but from what I recall were we not unable sign Jardel because he could not get a work permit so he went to Portugal instead where he was allowed to play?

Stardog 11 Posted December 17, 2007 Author Share Posted December 17, 2007 I always have WP problems on Football Manager for non-EU players. What's the big deal about them? If a large club is buying a player that scores a boatload surely they would think he would get games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rohan 25 Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Jardel is the worst player in the A-League now, can't run, can't score. What a player he would have been back then though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamcs 1 Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Big Eck must of seen that on the net and went for him. I think Eck used a combination of the internet + Football Manager to decide his signings. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice find mate I found this a few months ago and mentioned it in the thread about Ronaldo 'signing' for us, but I couldn't find it again! Er, I remember Mrs Jardel quite well . Seriously, we were told that Jardel 'could not trap a bag of cement'. The edical 'advice' that was lacking for Hartson and Raul clearly didn't influence the dozen or so unfit or injury prone duds signed over the last couple of years. It makes you sick :barf: !
