Stupid punditry of the month

Craig Doyle, on Juninho’s free kick goal for Lyon against Barcelona:

We always talk about Ronaldo being the free kick master, but if [Juninho] keeps going like this, he could have some competition!

Quite right too. 34 year old, 44 caps for Brazil,99 rating for free kicks in PES, considered for some time by many people who aren’t Premier League sycophants as the best free kick taker in the world  Juninho is surely one to watch for the future.

Should have stuck to rugby and double-glazing, Craig.

[of course, there is a chance he was joking, but it certainly didn't seem that way]

  1. Glad that Barry Glendenning gave him some stick for that remark.

    Although Juninho is the best free-kick taker in history, he doesn’t have the honour of scoring the best one. That one goes to Roberto Carlos.
