Remember when he went to Madird they really were the cream of Europe.
So while Im sure some of his rep is true, its also true to say that Houllier made a huge mistake and that in a parrallel universe he owuld have played for 5 years and now be signing an extension (well, actually, he'd probably be threatening to go on a bossie next year if we dont let him go now !).
As for what he said, yep depserate attempt to get us interested, after we had talks (?) with him last winter as alternate target to Moro IIRC. As for should we sign him ? I can think of alot worse, but I can think of some better. If Rafa said yes, Id be happy. Otherwise enjoy Pompey Nico !

I've got no problem with Snelks I said at the time Houllier was wrong to let him go.
I wouldn't want us to sign him for what Pompey are offering though.
