I enjoy these articles, it’s such fine margins to make it but sometimes I get the impression the journeymen of their game have a more rounded view of the game / world. Interesting that it sounds like it was his own decision not to sign the extension rather than have an agent.

Michael Dawson - fantastic servant, made the absolute most of his natural ability and dare I say seems to be very Mabbutt esque off the pitch.
Mido is the exact opposite.

Taarabt the most skilful teammate Huddlestone has ever played alongside!

'It's just bounced off of him' 😂

Tom Huddlestone definitely isn't the easiest player to crunch on the pitch 🤣 pic.twitter.com/KZM2kTj5xz

I remember this match. Ledley, Mido, and Keane if I recall correctly after Darren Bent had scored twice and made his hand gesture. The days when we had 4 strikers

Charlie Corluka captaining Lokomotiv Moscow in the champions league against the holder Munich. Aged 34. Great player for us, amazed to see him still performing at the top level.
