Well, by star I mean a neutron star, dead to all intents and purposes but still glowing faintly in the firmament. The star in question is one Radislav Kovac, he who offers a passable impression of a lamp post when he takes to the pitch. Very passable in fact because opponents glide around him as if he isn't there, and very much like a lamppost because, just like the willing host to a mongrel's cocked leg, seeing him in Claret and Blue was always taking the piss!
And who wants him? Three guesses. A.C. Milan. Er no. Inter then. Not quite. How about Brescia then? Yep, you've got it, Nani is back in for another of his favourite darlings!So how does this work exactly? Nani arrives at West Ham, spends buckets loads of dosh on footballing excrement and then buys it back again at knock down prices two or three years down the road. Does something stink here perchance?
Remember Duxbury saying that he and Nani had helped fund the purchase of Diamanti? They probably cut their personal commissions by 10% each!
There will be no tears when Kovac departs. All the tears were shed when Nani grabbed the club by its bollocks and squeezed!
Does anyone know when the fixture list is published?

ReplyDeleteKovac was so bad that I once re-watched a league game to exclusively focus on him, as I couldn't understand what exactly he was being picked by Zola for.
ReplyDeleteHe offered nothing in attack (passing the ball backwards a speciality) and almost nothing in defence (in the same way that a lamppost would sometimes prove an obstruction to an opposing player had it been on the pitch).
He was weak in the tackle, seemingly uninterested in providing any attacking impetus, with a work rate that made a hungover sloth look energetic.
Good riddance. The only question I have is how much we will have to pay Brescia to take him away.
See what Zola had to deal with HF? Nice of you to finally begin to admit it.
ReplyDelete19.05 this blog is a pretty good place to start altho methinks to combine West Ham and interesting would need for you to have something to say as well
ReplyDeleteI refer you to Zito's comment above Stani. And Zola, Nani and Duxbbury were a triumverate!
ReplyDeleteNo they were not HF. Zola was separate from them two.
ReplyDeleteAnd in regards to you referring to Zito's comment, was you or was you not the one who stated on a number of occasions how effective the Parker Kovac partnership in midfield was?
I don't think I did! I advocated using Kovac to anchor when Scotty wasn't willing to do it but I always maintained that Parker offered nothing going forward.
ReplyDeleteYou're forgetting. Old age HF, old age.
ReplyDeletePoppycock - You loved Kovac just like your mum did. Bottoms.
ReplyDeleteCheck the history, give me the evidence Stani. I think you will find one thread where I suggest a team using Kovac and one acknowledgement that Kovac had enjoyed a couple of goodish games and the team had started losing again when he was left out. You'll find a hell of a lot of Kovac criticism!
ReplyDeleteThat'll do HF, that'll do ;)
