Utter shite

[Harry Genshaw]

It shows there are really fine margins at being a success in football. Some players play consistently well year after year, some have a couple of good seasons in a career of medicority, and others, like Andranik, show flashes of brilliance but never quite make it for reasons such as injury or lack of opportunity.

John Walters & Delroy Facey both moved downwards in search of regular football and only 1 came back up, which is rare in itself these days.

[Lofthouse Lower]

I'm sorry, when exactly did he show flashes of anything?

Two goals against Wigan that went through the keeper's legs....can't think of any other 'highlights' from his career with us

[jonnybwfc]

The quick throw-in against Munich !!

[Lord Kangana]

I thought that was Cid?

[Tombwfc]

That was Andranik, I'm sure. People started adding "Great at throw-ins" to the list of reasons why he was a superstar being cruelly held down by a succession of managers.

Anyway, he clearly wasn't that good, but he didn't do badly given his lack of opportunities. More than Rodrigo anyway.

It was Andranik. To some, it was as influential a throw-in as Rory Delap regularly comes up with.

Pele himself was gushing with praise at such an audacious 6 yard chuck-in to one of your mates.

Didn't he have a good game at Doncaster once? I think you're all doing him a disservice.

[Lord Kangana]

Clearly after his perofrmane at Bayern, we'd be in the Champions League now if we'd kept him. And Vaz Te.

Its like Alan Ball and Roger Hunt all over again.

Ran the show from what I can remember

[Lofthouse Lower]

[Prufrock]

No easy games in the FA Cup with Budweiser.

[aussie_wanderer]

was one of my fav players. think he woulda performed alot better under owen coyle

[General Mannerheim]

i remember driving home from Donny that day thinking 'weve got a good'un on our hands ere!' never live it up to it tho, shame.

[Prufrock]

Presumably he is somewhere else, still being a bit shit.

[Lofthouse Lower]

Back in Iran now

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

In cases like this, we should start up a thread, perhaps called "Where Are They Now?" or summat...

[Prufrock]

I'm not claiming credit or owt. But.....straight after my comment came one about where he is now. JSL.
