I'm not the mans biggest fan but his actions on friday night have forced me to revise my opinion of him.
People don't like him. Their reasons vary from footballing to the his pony-taily and excellent dress sense. Basically he's been getting shit for the better part of 8 months from our fanbase.
I'm fairly certain Voronin is aware of the hatred that exists towards him for the stupidest of reasons. I say this because I don't think he was surprise when his arrival brought about boo's on Friday night.
Then it happened. The ball dropped from a fabulous pass from Spearing and Voronin's technique was spot on and he fired it in. However it was his shushing of the Anfield crowd that caught my eye. Nobody , except maybe Lampard, does that to us. For our own player to do it shows he must have balls because he knows exactly what that crowd can do. He knows he'll have to come back and play infront of them sooner rather than later.
Maybe it's because I dislike most of our fans or maybe it's because I like an under-dog but Voronin is now one of my favourite players at our club. I was considering getting Voronin 10 but thought it too much.
