    To be fair to Salif he did give it all every time he played. He also played some good games. A legend he ain't but he doesn't deserve any stick. Of course we'll always remember that he turned up with Diouf, but that's not his fault.
    Apparently a nice guy in and out of the club and put his all in a red shirt. Not a legend but should still be respected for his attitude.

      It was the opposite, 1860 have been royaly ****ed by their Chief sponsor.

      He has basically financed the club for a few years but wants to own the club. This is not allowed in Germany (no individual may own 51%) in protest he refused to bankroll the 3m euros needed to stay in the 3rd division, so they were kicked out, down to non-league football.

      Aye, although only being there a few weeks earned a lot of credit across Germany for fighting the clubs corner against this idiot, although he lost, he had the decency to walk. The club are in dire straights because he won't finance the licence (proof of adequate finances needed) 3m Euros, but he won't allow other sponsors in, as a protest against the ownership laws.

      Because of this my local club SC Paderborn were not relegated, they stayed up because they had the money.

        He was so underrated. Will always remember when Rafa moved him to left back to specifically deal with Messi, and then had him in his pocket.

            Yeah really rated the guy & gutted at the time that he left.

                ****ing hell, he's not dead ha ha! I know what you're saying, very young for someone of his quality and fitness level to retire. Maybe he just doesn't have the time on his hands to trim his beard and now that he's retiring he can spend more time keeping it nice and quaffed.

                  I think going from Real Madrid to West Ham would make me reappraise my career to be honest.
                  Really?

                    Yes. Rafa was nothing if not a tactical genius. Some managers thrive with limitations, win by defeating opponents (...obviously). Rafa could take a weaker side and turn it into something more deadly.
                    Unfortunately I think he was his own worst enemy when it came to man-management. Either way, Arbeloa was a fantastic signing from nowhere. Shame he couldnt settle. Shame Madrid wanted him.

                        Damn, remember when they used to have world class players in every position?

                          Chelsea, Roma, Liverpool, Milan and he is only 26.

                            The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.

                              And never scored more than 9 goals in a season.
