I know he is Irish and might struggle a bit but glad to hear he is proficient in Spanish.

I was talking about Vicente you ****wit

Of course not!

I would give 110% if I was playing, doesn't mean it would be worth 0.0001% of the rest of the team.

But the thread is about players that annoyed you. Someone giving 100% and being gash is less likely to annoy me that someone who gives 20% and may be 1% better than gash (Harley)

And Hart annoyed me. So did CMS for the same reason. If giving your all is all you have then give me the 1% gain all day.

That said that is a bit of an extreme example. Harley was shit from day one despite that belter of a free kick he scored (on his debut?). But you won't find a Exeter fan with a bad word to say about him. Sometimes your face just doesn't fit places. Billy Sharp is another cracking example, didn't do anything apart from a Yorkshire clubs.

Interesting question. Not many I think, I try and see the good in all of them.

Robert Codner, yup, although how much that was peer pressure from everyone around me I'm not sure! And Davy Propper, definitely, for large periods he would absolutely do my head in.

There's definitely a connection between those two, 'languid midfielder' should cover it

In that vein I'll add Jason Peake to make a triumvirate.

Interesting. Although looking fit in a gym and being match fit are presumably very different things. It would seem very odd if he really was match fit and Poyet didn't want to use him, when he was head and shoulders above everybody else in the league.

There was an interview with Vicente in the Argus on Saturday May 18 2013 when he really laid into Poyet and said he thought the bloke had something against him (small excerpt here):-

Clash of egos? I can’t imagine Vicente was in awe of Gus and Gus was a complete control freak. If you told me Gus cut his nose off to spite his face on occasion I would be inclined to believe you. He did turn into a meglomaniac dick in his last couple of months here (Gus that is)

Didn’t Vicente say something along the lines of Gus being the worst manager he’d ever played for in an interview after he left?

not worst manager- WORST PERSON!!!!
