[Albion] Take a Bow Schelotto

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

I believe he played under Conte at some stage .

Conte was manager of Atalanta when Schelotto was on their books, but he'd already been loaned out to Cesena before Conte took over. Conte resigned after only a few months and long before Schelotto returned so I don't think he'd have played under Conte in a match.

It was a great performance by The Greyhound yesterday, ran himself into the ground, it's those kind of performances that will make him a fan favourite for sure. Would have been great for him to cap of the day with a goal.

From a Chelsea forum

We should sign that Scholloto fella, far better than Moses

They can have him for £50m

Weren't there people saying during his earlier matches that players were deliberately not passing to him?

Many thanks ,I thought there may have been a link between them ....or perhaps Conte asking if he fancied a move to Laaarrrrrndon.

Can’t blame them really, they must have read the post on here about him having won a sweepstake to get a game and the other one about him being the worst player to ever wear the stripes.

Surely he's now established and now should be betrothed with the glorious British title of 'The Whippet'! None of that continental nonsense.

They knew he would show them up that’s why.

Commented during the game that he reminded me of Mr Peter Smith

I like ‘Musketeer’......

Brilliant performance and effort
Do you think he actually would have walked off after the second appeal was turned down had Duffy not stopped him?
I also liked the way he made that ******* ref walk to him to book him

It was a bit bizarre - he was definitely heading for the tunnel, stopped, then carried on until someone (Goldson I think) told him to turn round and go back to the ref. Not sure if he was massively pissed off (he very obviously was) or expecting a red card (one for diving and one for whatever he probably called ‘Moobs’ Moss perhaps).

Amazed he managed to last the whole game after that, was convinced he was a 50/50 ball away from a red card.

Absolute quality. Just needs to get his haircut now.

ok, part of his charm?

 

[Landgull]

Best performance from any player in a long while imo.

agree, and just think if we had started with Kayal and BFG as centre-mid instead of the pondering Propper and Stephens what might have happened?

Probably lost by 6 goals.
