BBC Berks - Portuguese striker to join in next 24 hours

by Forbury Lion » 21 Jan 2019 17:28

BBC Berks News & Sport about 15 mins ago said we're expected to sign a Portuguese striker in the next 24 hours (or was it 48 hours)..... I was negotiating a tricky roundabout at the time so didn't catch the players name unfortunate, so there may already be a thread on this same person.

Having thought about it for a bit I've decided we have never signed a Portuguese player who has gone on to succeed. We should steer clear of this mystery signing.

No way John, Sa was excellent. He had a fire in his belly that no striker has had since for us. He was aggressive and always caused oppostion defenders problems, was mortified when we sold him.

He scored 5 goals and got sent off in a big game for an extremely petulant challenge. He then left after half a season. I'd call that a mercenary myself.

Each to their own, but I would have him in this team, no question.

Glad to have started another "was he shit or not" debate. Does anyone know why he left so quickly?

Word on the street is that his Mrs couldn't settle and he had a fall-out with BMcD.

Wife hated it here combined with him losing interest when McDermott came in.

His wife hated Reading, was the rumour at the time. Looking at his wiki page, he doesn't seem to like staying anywhere for too long. Most he's managed in any stint is 50 games.

No he scored 5 in 19 for us. It isn't just about his goals, he caused no end of issues for oppostion defences. You clearly can't have seen him play.
