Yuri Zhirkov

He should have stayed instead of Malouda but we were given an offer were we would have recouped most of the money we spent on him which isn't half bad.

Spartak.

Oh right. Thanks

As the season goes on, I'm really even more disappointed that we let him go as I was already during the summer...

Keeping him would have allow to put Mata in a central position sooner than now. And for me Malouda has a future as a left central midfielder, we should have kept both but there wasn't enough spots in the 25 man list.

i prefer him than malouda sooo much.

He can play in LB too, and he's so badass.

Still remember when he still play with so much blood from his head.

He's a warrior.

miss you so much zhirkov

I can't believe you sold him to be honest, he looked a great little player. + that goal he scored in the champions league!

He couldn't deal with England. It was too hard for him. No the football or anything but the culture and language.

The reason why Zhirkov left was the fact that he could not bring his family over to England. I am sure if his Wife & kid were able to make over to London, he would still be a CFC player.

The money offered was probably too hard to refuse. We recouped nearly all we spent on him.

The family and the fact.. We played Malouda ahead of this guy. NOT ONLY THAT but then when we did play him, we stuck him in MIDFIELD instead of the wing, where he belonged. We basically fucked with his career far too much.

He is still playing for Russia at soon 38yo.

Watching him now.

I really thought he would do well here, quite a shame, very wasted.
