What do you remember about this young man's time at Villa Park?
-
Are you writing a book?
-
Wanted to take the twice missed penalty at Fulham.
-
Are you writing a book?
I think he'll struggle to get a pamphlet out of this one.
-
Doesn't this belong in "Memories" or maybe we need a "Blimey....HE played for Villa?" section
-
Oh, and practically nothing, Kevin. Sorry. I remember the underwhelmed bafflement I felt when we signed him, but I can't recall a single thing he did in a Villa shirt.
-
I remember his twin.
-
So bad, they named him twice.
-
His best game at Villa Park was for Odense in the InterToto Cup. Can't remember him ever doing anything positive for us.
-
I remember him being signed and thinking "oh FFS"
I remember him leaving and thinking "thank f%%% for that"
Can't remember anything about him in between
-
Never trust a bastard that doesn't drink and never trust a bastard with duplicate names like Boo Truss Boo Truss Ga Ga Lee Lee or Court Knee Court Knee Taylor Taylor from the Dandy Whore Holes.
Check it out, FFS.
-
He nearly broke this website.
-
He was so good they named him twice?
-
Played in the Reserve League decider at Tamworth v Man U
-
The Jumper!
-
The Jumper!
Wasn't that Makoun? (I had to look this name up)
-
Oh yeah. Maybe they were one and same person?
-
Always in are heart's
-
One question about this thread: Why??!
-
I remember Ferguson admitting he was one of his worst signings. I suspect he also thinks he was one of his best sales.
-
I think they were played out of position, someone put them on a football pitch.
-
Football died for me the day we lost that pair.
-
What do you remember about this young man's time at Villa Park?
NOTHING
-
I seem to recall he had one good game for us; an end of season match against Man City.
Otherwise he was rubbish.
-
I am sure they came with a letter of reccomendation from siralex.
-
Now Salifou, he was a signing.
-
He was almost as good as Mathieu Berson and slightly better than Jordan Bowery.
-
i remember his debut away at fulham and two blokes behind me chanting "djemba, djemba-djemba, djemba-djemba" to the tune of no limits by 2 unlimited.
didn't catch on.

It does make you wonder....almost as if our scouting network's thoughts are "he's played for Man U so he must be half decent"
Yes, he did have that one decent game V Man City but overall he can be added to the every growing list of.. Why?
-
He looked quite similar to Carlos Sanchez in that given his physique and athleticism he had a chance of being able to do a job. And similarly he didn't.
-
His name and that's about it.
-
yes, all name and no fart, but he was certainly shit.
-
If we are going on a walk down memory lane can't we pick one of our more salubrious eras.
-
I remember him stretching the shirt when he signed.
-
Didn't Sir Ferguson refer to him as the new Cantona? Probably just to fool us into buying the bleeder.

I would wager that was AD and CD Villains.

I'm sure there was a fella in the Villa end in a Man Utd shirt with Djemba Djemba on the back. I can't have imagined that
-
I remember him coming on against Arsenal & I think it was his debut? I remember him giving the ball away numerous times before being booked for a shocking tackle. He was truly awful that day. *disclaimer* certain facts may be incorrect due to me being pissed through the entire nineties
-
Big disappointment. Brian Green and I invited him to address the Schizophrenia Conference at Baden Baden. All we got was two sick notes. Just the same when we invited him to Wagga Wagga.

Bravo Brian

Does sound like the sort of thing we would sing.
-
Hey, he plays for Man. United, he must be really good! Then seeing him play, yes, yes, he's, he's, fucking worse than Gareth Farelly. Completely crap. Joins the same list as half the wasters Lambert and Sherwood signed over the last few years.
-
Nothing whatsoever.

His debut was at Fulham wasn't it?
-
His best game at Villa Park was for Odense in the InterToto Cup. Can't remember him ever doing anything positive for us.
I remember him nearly running over my foot as he drove into the car park at the game in Odense. He really didn't seem to know where he was or what he was doing.
Incidentally, Olof Mellberg also nearly drove over my foot in the terminus shopping centre at Wylde Green. However anybody familiar with where I am talking about will know it's quite a tight squeeze in there.
-
They were both shite.

Come on! You're only willing to forgive Ollie cos he was a fan favourite and the other was a waster.

Do remember when Nigel Mansell ran over a fan after winning the British Grand Prix? The scribblers and ambulance chasers swamped the guy for a reaction. In a broad Brummie accent he replied that it was the proudest moment of his life.

I was once inches from being mown down by the Villa team bus on Green Street at West Ham away. It was empty bar the driver and Cyrille Regis who was directing him.

Maybe he was African Car Reverser
-
Is this the 'Former Villa players who nearly ran over my foot' thread?
On a separate note, I have a feeling that myself and CD used to just sing "Djemba-Djemba-Djemba-Djemba-Djemba-Djemba-Djemba-Djemba-" for him.
