Vicente

_mark_ · Apr 8, 2014

Just discuss.........

In these times of mid table mediocrity wasn't it a pleasure to remember "The Dagger".

How on earth he ever ended up playing for us I've no idea. It's rare to see a player so much better than everyone else on the pitch. If/when we get to the promised land of the premier league/premiership we'll get to watch some good footballers but even if Lionel or Cristiano turn up at our place I don't think they'll be head and shoulders above everyone else.

Vicente........

Is he still alive? It's as though he has just fallen off the face of the planet!

Please return o great one. How we need you, how we really, really need you.

That mazy run and shot against Derby that hit the crossbar is a memory that will live with me forever. We didn't see that much of a fully fired up and fit Vicente but when we did it produced football to make you drool.

Agree, he was different class.

It would be great to have a player who was worth the price of admission on his own, as Vicente was. We are a team without stars at the moment, although I think that KLL and Ulloa could be with the right set-up and man management. It would be great to be sitting in a full Amex with the sense of expectation that used to come about when Wardy or Bobby Z received the ball.

Agreed. We have absolutely nobody who gets you going at the moment. Lua Lua and Buckley aren't really firing lately and March isn't allowed to play very often.

Who wakes up on a Saturday morning and the first thing you think of is getting down the Amex and watching Keith Andrews do his stuff.

We have not had a player like Vicente since he left. The only similar one prior to him was Martin Lambert.

Really miss him, big time

He was amazing, the best player I've ever seen play for us by a mile. I seem to remember NSC doing nothing but moan about him though. How we could do with him to moan about now.

This absolutely. For that one game alone he was worth his time at the club.

Albumen · Apr 8, 2014

He was a success, we may have only seen half a season or so from him but he in my opinion helped bring the quality of the players that followed. And that Derby moment . . . . .

NSC wouldn't be NSC without a moan and people that moan about the moaners though! Pantomime

Vicente........

I think the Poyet factor played a big role there.

Vicente, on his day, was simply unbelievable. A shame about the injuries but lets be honest, if he was 100% fit with no niggles he would have been playing at a much higher standard. A joy to watch.

Do you remember the excitement when he signed?

Even his mother books a Tesco Direct delivery for Saturday afternoons

Why? Is Orlandi getting lonely in the physio room?

Edna should be along with a reply shortly, just after she's cleaned up.

Oh yes. There aren't many signings completed by and NSC member at Gatwick airport.
