"Sniffed him out" from Auxerre as an 18 year old, and I'm fairly sure Sissoko was known as a striker at the time. Didn't Rafa convert him into a midfielder? Also played him at right back a few times.Thanks very much for being ‘This Mornings’ Farmer’ -

Bill shankly to Tommy Smith after he'd turned up for training with a bandaged knee:
'Take that poof bandage off, and what do you mean YOUR knee, it's LIVERPOOL'S knee !'
"Sorry, boss, I should have kept my legs together," said Lawrence. "No, Tommy, your mother should have kept her legs together!," replied Shankly.

yes origonally a striker until used in a practice match one day at valencia, never looked back (or foward) since
doesnt mean a whole lot though tbh, where players play as youngsters doesnt always transfer to where they play as seniorsParry is a clown. En Rafa que confiamosComment

Sissoko started his professional career in 2002 with AJ Auxerre in France, but failed to establish himself in the first team. After just one season, at the age of eighteen, he moved to Valencia CF in Spain. At this time Sissoko was considered a striker, but his new manager Rafael Benitez saw the potential for him to be converted into an energetic midfielder — the position he is now famous for playing.Originally posted by bazza76
no wonder he couldnt get in the first team as a striker!!!_____________________________________

He must have been a poor striker. About the only thing he isn't very good at is shooting.Comment

Momo - all the attributes, painfully unable to get a Goal. His run against Haifa late on was brilliant, the position perfect, the finish awful.Originally posted by red gComment
