Cheers Aloe, really enjoyed those.

Never noticed how often Forlan took his shirt off.

I really didn't understand what the point was of selling him for so cheap. What was, it £1m or £2m?

Then he goes to Villarreal, wins european golden boot, then sold to Atletico Madrid for £14m.

Now valued at around £30m.

Always keep eye on Athletico because of him, can't believe he's 28 tho
That's because he's 30...

Because he looked ridiculously short on confidence.

Not much use when youre a striker. Plus we'd just but Smith and Rooney so it was a case of get him off the wage bill before the window shuts I think.

SAF liked him I think, wouldnt have wanted him stagnating until Jan due to never getting a look in.
