You should listen to Graham Hunter's interview with Beardsley - he was actually spotted by George Best..... its a great listen - hard not to like Beardsley
Did he really play for them?
- Thread starter R.N7
- Start date

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) look forward to a new life under Ruben Amorim. What system will we be playing? What players will impress? and how will it all go? We also say goodbye to Ruud Van Nistelrooy and review United's 3-0 win at home against Leicester City.
I forgot all about that
Diego Lugano - West Brom.
Big brave John Terry at Forest?
Not sure if posted... but Pep at Brescia
Didn't realise how much he looked like Chris Harris of car video Youtube/Top Gear fame.
Di Stefano and Puskas both played for Barca
That's a shirt swap, right? When did this happen?
Oh ho ho, he's magic! You knowwwwNot sure if this has been posted before:
Esteban Cambiassooooooo.
Probably a better variation of the Carrick chant in my opinion.
Yeah but PSG weren't the oily lottery winners in the early 90s that they are now. Nobody'd heard of them outside of France back then.
Is that Gordon Ramsay?
West Ham have had a few of these. Nene and Futre also spring to mind.
It is.
You've won the thread.
My most unfootball like footballer of all time, looks like a drunk picked up from the park.
Look at that pic is probably what makes him so angry
The photo on the left - I don't remember the story behind it, probably some charity game for Kubala. I vaguely remember it, plus Di Stefano looks significantly older. Edit - yep, Kubala's testimonial, 1961
Di Stefano played a couple games for Barca before they gave him up to Madrid (a complicated story, you can google it if you want), the second photo is from that time (1953)
Puskas, iirc, also played a few games for Barca (and Espanyol) - during a limbo between Hungary and Madrid, but they couldn't sign him because of the ban. FA didn't allow us to sign him either
Also, this
Seedorf at Sampdoria.
It's funny, but that's the first club that comes to mind when I think of him.
Tobi at ATM
Didn't people know Gordan Ramsey used to be at Rangers? For some reason I thought that was common knowledge
Andy Cole
Didn't play for them competitively though.
Sammy Mac - man shity
Probably been mentioned already but Alex Song at Barca. Seemed like such a pointless signing.
George Donis. First Greek in the premier league. Was linked with United for a bit before joining Blackburn, dubbed the Greek Georgie Best.
Flopped.
Was he the Greek George Best purely because of the first name?
Wes Brown, Blackburn.
Oddo at Bayern
Jim Pakistan at Villa:
And at Burnley:
And at St Mirren:
Also, Adebayor was apparently at Palace this year:
Which still isn't a weird as this:
Then again, Madrid have form for forgettable signings:
And this one:
And of course, Faubert, Gravesen and Woodgate, who we're all very aware of.
And at Burnley:

Metzelder the German CB, too
And Altintop.
Anelka played for every club one earth it seems.
Pirlo at Inter.
But then again, every decent Italian played for all of the big three.
