Deepcar_lights Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 The memories served up by Di Canio are unrivalled. We missed out on his peak. Will refrain from the typical Wednesday narrative...oops. White boots. Short shorts. Rounding keepers more times than was necessary before tapping one in. Brilliant!

I've got far better memories of Hirst, Sheridan and in particular, Waddle if I'm honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me too, because then we had a team. But Di Canio was effectively on his own for long periods. Wim was good but couldn't be arsed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to think he's doing this tour because he's fallen on hard times. Looking forward to hear that only a handful turn up and the ones that do, give him a hard time.

Think those 3 players all had respect for the club. Di Canio didn't really have any. More talent in his little finger then 95% of other players but only played for himself.

HIGHERSTATE Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 You could hear the men on the north swooning every time he did a stepover. Thats why people blindly forgive him now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fred mciver Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 He hardly needs the dosh. Di Canio's SkyItalia's main footy pundit, probably on only slightly less than Abdi. Typically, he presented solo until a big gaffe last year so now has a baby sitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a great player for Paolo Di Canio wherever he’s played, a veritable legend in his own lunch box. Not for me I’m afraid, give me the likes of Waddle, Hirst, Sheridan, Nilsson, every time, I just have a soft spot for team players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly they were 2 of the most talented players I have seen in my time but both soured they time at Wednesday a bit. Also I don't think either player probably cares if they are a Wednesday legend or not. Its over 20 years now since they played for us. Carbone keeps sniffing around the club and claiming his love for the club .Like DiCanio thought kissing the badge was enough to delude most fans. Good as they were both sold us down the river at the first opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went to the smallest club of Londons premier league teams as it suited him to be the star. Left Sheffield as it wasnt big enough a city for his ego. Wanted the bright lights of London.

Some reason while DiCanio didnt represent Italy was probably down to DiCanio himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
