I remember the standards for him were so low that people were basically lauding him every time he went through a game without costing us or nearly costing us a goal.

The Koemanista's were all "If he's good enough for the manager, then he's good enough for me!"

That worked out well...

File under Anton Peterlin and Eddie Bosnar.

Well £3.5m was an expensive mistake in 2016 which does not include his wages. At least Peterlin and Bosnar costed peanuts.

File under Anton Peterlin and Eddie Bosnar.

Sadly his name was Eddy Bosnar. Not Eddie.

So we have the ignomy of actually signing a professional footballer named Eddy.

Remember Martinez basically made out like he was the Swiss Messi?

Yes, the Alpine Tevez

Imagine being a nothing footballer, having played next to no games in your career yet being settled for life financially ! This guy has earned 15k a week for 5 years for doing F all FFS !

Another Martinez masterpiece of finding talent.

him, the Uruguayan and Europe’s best midfielder Tom Cleverly

That Uruguayan striker, someone compared his stats to Saurez.

I kid you not.

Remember Martinez basically made out like he was the Swiss Messi?

He was highly touted to be fair. Don't know what happened to him, just seemed to stop being even remotely decent.

He never got to play for Martinez..maybe was the missing piece of the jigsaw...

That Uruguayan striker, someone compared his stats to Saurez.

I kid you not.

Suarez and Cavani, on the basis that he was Uruguayan.

 

[Brisan123]

another cream of the crop pick from Martinez, How does he do it.

72 points though lad

 

[Papa Shango]

Kone and Alcaraz.

Kone was a (somewhat) proven premier league player.

Nobody envisioned his leg falling off after half a game.

 

[Moomin]

Suarez and Cavani, on the basis that he was Uruguayan.

Leandro Rodriguez

Tarashaj not leandro. Oh mate

A bit like when a manager getting £10m pay off when he was sacked?

 

[hktoffee]

Kone was a (somewhat) proven premier league player.

Nobody envisioned his leg falling off after half a game.

Paying £6m in 2013 for him was madness.

 

[Brownie]

I reckon if Martinez was about him on TV, even now he would say he was a phenomenal talent and unfortunately things just haven't worked out for him - yet.
