Kitchen Chef — great player. A class above everyone else on the pitch. Just made the team tick over nicely. No thrills, a real midfield general.

Yes, Kishy was different gravy that last season at Withers, great player, sadly he had to return home for personal reasons. Gus really did put together a great squad of players that year.

Did Bridcutt turn down Real Madrid for Lincoln?
Liam was a brilliant player for us, sadly, was unsettled by Gus and the 'bright lights' of Sunderland. Don't let bitterness cloud your judgement Justice!

Quality player.
His signing was another example of that time when every decision and signing we made, seemed to be the right one. He fitted into the squad perfectly like Greer, Sparrow, Barnes and Noone.

Way to young to remember, was this in the 50s ?

I loved him as a player, you could see the quality he had. He went home to Bulgaria for two or three months in our 2010/11 season, with the club mentioning family reasons.
A couple of days before that, I’d seen him in Churchill Square looking quite down, but I plucked up courage to speak to him. He was surprised I recognised him.
I found out later he had just found out his wife had breast cancer, and sadly died of it within a year. She was only in her 30s, and they had several children.

Oh that is sad, I wonder what he is doing now ? I hope he and his family are ok.

According to the 52 players thread, he is the current boss of Bulgarian side Chernomorets 1919.

Top quality player, shame he was at the end of his career during his time with us.

I was taking the piss yes great player for us and he should of stayed at the Albion personally think Gus ruined his career. I’ve read since his family told him not to sign for Sunderland shame he didn’t listen to them.
Totally agree with this. The two most disappointing players leaving us for me were Bridcutt and Murray, both indirectly Poyets decisions. Where could we have been if things had been different? Where would those up the road have been also? Still, we are where we are now, onto Anfield.......

He was fantastic for us and a big part of why the group was so successful. I can only imagine him being a hugely positive influence on the dressing room because of the career he'd had, he knew it was coming to an end and there was a squad of players around him who had the ability to do something special and create memories for themselves and the fans. It was a huge shame for him what happened with his wife that season with us, I hope the club took appropriate care of him and I suspect they did.
Only good memories of Kishishev for me.

Was surprised to see that he played 32 games in our promotion season. From what I remember most of them were from the subs bench to see us over the line late in games.
Quality player, top pro and just what we needed.

I think he's now their director of youth football after being replaced as manager in November 2019 (that article has a few mistakes although it was written a year or so ago)
He actually started 21 of his 32 appearances for us, which is a good return for someone who could hardly run. He was absolute class that season, read the game brilliantly (which helped with his lack of mobility) and could pick a pass.
Probably the most capped player to ever play for us, can't think of anyone with more caps, but none of them were won while he played for us (think the most caps while a Brighton player is Shane Duffy who must be nearing 40 caps while playing for us.)
