Fond memories of watching balls flying through Reina into the net for his last two seasons, like he was made of gas. 

Had the reaction speed of Jabba the Hutt. 

[lifetime fan]

Golden gloves his first 3 seasons. 
Actually spoke out against Hicks & Gillett when others refused to. 
Fuck knows how many goal assists. 
Bombed out the club by FSG for that fucking clown Mignolet to save on his wages. 
 

He tailed off badly towards the end of his career with us but actually improved for the last 6 months before he left and was always a better keeper than Mignolet. 
 

He’ll always be a legend for having the bollocks for calling out cancer and aids when far too many others refused to.

Footballers have never been too smart.

Notorious thicko, but he does have mental health issues, so he gets a pass from me.

 

Did these lefties in Spain threaten food supplies?  If so can imagine Reina being angry.

This bit seems to have been erased from people's memories.

He was defo wobbly in my mind in his first season here. Was that the Johnson derby? I was at that game sat in the Everton section.

Yeah, I don't think speaking against Hicks and Gillet over a decade ago excuses dismissing a terrible virus that has killed millions of people and harmed countless more.

 

I can't believe he's still playing and for Lazio at that. He looked like a pub footballer at Villa.

That is a shit thing to say, if true.

[Curly]

Isn’t he just saying, very poorly:

 

”Racism is wrong and shouldn’t happen. It needs to be stamped out”

 

”I don’t believe my nation is racist as a whole, but there are racist cunts here who make the issue”

 

”Regardless of his skin colour, Vinicius is an amazing footballer, but a bit of a whopper”

More he's  adding to the chorus of shite in Spain that he brings it on himself by diving and complaining to refs

Fair enough - if it’s a case of him saying “if he doesn’t want racist abuse, then don’t act the cunt” then that is bad. Really bad.

 

But if he’s saying “the abuse someone gets should never be racist, but he does deserve non-racist grief as he is a cunt” then it’s more a case of ‘why say anything at all? Sit this out you fool’. Not the best time to chime in with the fact you don’t like Vini Jr
