QUOTE (Milan Are Brilliant @ May 15 2013, 09:13 AM)  Need to add a few players to that team mate, mainly some experience. Which was the frustrating thing in January. In Jan 2011 we signed Bent for a club record £18m and his goals kept us up for 2 straight seasons - why not do something in Jan this time? Sylla has been brilliant, but he was just another young unknown. Remy arrested in gang **** investigation This post has been edited by kurtsimonw: May 15 2013, 04:01 PM |

Ross Turnbull has played 7 games for Chelsea.
His medal haul includes: 1x Champions League 1x Premier League 2x FA Cup 1x Europa League 1x Community Shield That's basically theft. |

Muntari played 42 times in Inter's big year, hardly comparable.

Valerio Fiori has played only 1 game for Milan from 1999 till 2008, yet we all know what we've won during those years.

But life's not fair... Naah, Junior is a completely different thing. He's a hero if you ask me, the way he mastered through the CL final with his injury, limping and still helping closing down the right flank, I'll never forget this. And also, he had his fair share of matches. Just like Muntari. Fiori and Mario Ielpo are good examples. |

The point is finding a player that won almost everything in a long span of years almost without any match played. |

For Kurt:
QUOTE Christian Benteke wants Aston Villa to honour their promise of a bumper new contract – after keeping them in the Premier League.
Villa’s escape from relegation has paved the way for manager Paul Lambert and owner Randy Lerner to step up their efforts to keep the Belgian sensation. Benteke’s 19 Premier League goals following a £7million move from Genk has alerted the cream of Europe, with Champions League finalists Borussia Dortmund the latest interested club. The Germans view him as a perfect replacement for Robert Lewandowski, who is lined up for a summer transfer to either Bayern Munich, Manchester United or Chelsea. AC Milan and Arsenal also fancy 22-year-old Benteke, now rated in the £30m bracket by the Villans' boss Lambert. Benteke’s agent Eris Kismet has confirmed Dortmund’s chief transfer negotiator Michael Zorc was at Saturday's game against Chelsea and added: “Now that the future of Aston Villa is secure I hope it will mean we can have discussions maybe by the end of the week. If not, then next week. |

From what I've heard Benteke and Weimann have been told that we'll double their current wages, so hopefully both of them will be happy with that.
If anyone wants to bid the £25m/£30m it will take to get Benteke then they can have him. At this point he is a 1 season wonder and you have to take the money when you can. If he stays and performs well again, then great. It's almost a win/win at this point. |

I think the big point is not the amount of matches played, because as we've seen over the years some of the worst players out there can still get a good number of appearances in for some reason or other and thus by being involved with their teams mostly not through their own merit they can win all there is to win while some of the most legendary players of the game can go without ever winning the World Cup as is Paolo's case or the CL as is Ronaldo's case |

I think if you're looking for the worst player who's won a lot of trophies while still being a fairly big part of the first team squad, then Muuntari has to be up there you would think. He won, what, 6 trophies with Inter and 1 with Portsmouth? Too much for a bad player.
