M Royds Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Some bitter and twisted comments on here. Benny was simply irresistible on that pitch. He was an artist and like any artist they have can have fragile temperaments. I enjoyed him him and his talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was an artist and like any artist they have can have fragile temperaments. I enjoyed him him and his talent. Not all Artists have fragile temperaments I'm sure. Successful ones have self discipline, focus and the will to be the best. I don't blame Carbone for everything which went wrong, he was mismanaged. Obviously allowed to get away with murder until Danny Wilson turns up and starts asking him to behave reasonably. Clearly the club had created two monsters before things imploded under Agent Wilson. If you can see bitterness it's because the fans old enough to remember know that when Di Canio pushed that ref over it was the beginning of the end of our Premier League status, which we're still trying to recover now, twenty years later. Anyway, I'm glad Benito has been of help over his signing and I'm sure even Benito regrets how it all ended. And btw. BREXIT is BREXIT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronio Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Carbone and Di Canio up top were a lethal combination. They were both on the same wavelength. Top Premier teams at the time couldn't cope with them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronio Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 I was in Anfield, going back over twenty years ago. I managed to get the autographs of all our players apart from Carbone. We lost the game 2-0, think it was Steven Gerrard's Liverpool debut, he scored a long ranger in the game. I tried my best Italian to get Carbone's attention, wasn't having any of it, he ducked his head and ran onto the pitch, probably thinking I was a liverpool supporter trying to goad him. Only player who stopped to have a chat was a Andy Booth, There was a story in the paper in the weeks before about Booth getting run over. I asked him the same question that day, he said it was all bollaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Loved Carbone. Got his name on the back of my shirt. Some of the goals he scored for us where different class. The goals he scored at Blackburn when we lost 7v2 where among the best I have seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah a slightly defrosted, uncooked pizza out of a cardboard box...I can see why Di Canio was angry at the world now!!

fpowl Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 (edited) Carbone was a special player with a different culture to one we have in England players like that need managing. A lot like do canio I’m that sense apart from di canio was a complete nut. They have temperament and flair but a load of passion they just don’t always channel it in the right way for me carbone was one of the best and most exciting players we’ve had in my time watching Wednesday completely different when he was here I felt the passion from him as I did with di canio but we couldn’t manage that st the time and he becomes a villain. I’m not saying it’s right to treat people differently but management can go along way. We have a player on our books now in forestieri who’s also refused to get on a coach. These players if managed right are stand out players that the fans love. It’s not there emotion and passion that makes them temperamental and rash or hot headed it’s this that needs understanding and managed to get the best out of them complete different How is working class English react. I like carbone and Di canio and forestieri but they all need loving I also think in hindsight if we didn’t sign Di canio carbone would have stayed longer been more settled and be a legend for us Edited February 1, 2019 by fpowl 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a no from me. Yet Forestieri is adored and he did the same . Beni is probably still twenty times the player he is even now , so I’m sure it can be forgiven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still remember him skinning the Southampton keeper about 3 times before casually stroking it into the net. My favourite Wednesday goal. Remember going mental in the away end and losing my glasses.
