2017/18 Ramiro Funes Mori

CRIMHEAD · May 25, 2018

Mori is an okay player and all, but his status as an Argentine international is more an indictment of the defenders in that team than anything else. Liga MX can play some big money, but 10M is a BIG number for any Liga MX side.

If I remember this one, he’d played in America for Dallas with his brother who was apparently the better player than our Argentinian Badge Kissing Centre Half.

Did 100 odd games for River Plate and scored a few headers that meant a bit to them. All five years like. So, a deadline bid that was meant to be £6m ended up being £9m+ because he was personally due 50% of any transfer fee. Pulled his socks up, very high, missed a sitter in the Derby, always looks like he has a mistake in him.

He may be left footed, he may be our most dangerous threat in the box from a corner, he also may be better than what I’ve seen, but he reminds me of a poor man’s Materazzi. Keep him, sell him, I won’t lose a moments sleep over either. Another passing figure in our recent history.

Still 100% better than that Keane lump we bought , however.

I absolutely agree, and would say he’s more than 100% better, just not a great benchmark to go off lol

He’s better than Keane and Williams so it would be ludicrous to sell him before shipping on that yard dog Williams

Might be difficult to move Tubby Ashley on: the catering team at FF put together a full English breakfast just the way Tubby likes it. He knows which side his toast is buttered on...

Remember when Barca wanted him? Yeah me neither because that wasn’t ever.

He has me blocked on twitter and I have never once @ him. I once said “funes mori is [Poor language removed]” so he must have been searching his name tbh

Doesn't his brother play in Mexico?

Same team he’s linked with here I think.

Oh well, it's a marketing opportunity for them I guess

I think there’s ways of blocking certain words/phrases as well as “anonymous” accounts depending on what info has been used to sign up etc. I was blocked by Angela raynor despite having never tweeted about or to her. (More confusing as I’m a staunch labour supporter and tweeted a lot about labour and Corbyn). But I assume I was blocked due to certain words maybe but they don’t actually have to search and do anything to block it.

Not really.
