I was a saint, I did everything by the book and didn't get into any trouble whatsoever. I certainly didn't get arrested, or nearly die in a stupid drunken accident in a hotel in Bali. I'd like to think we can all say the same. Welcome Saido. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Father died at 10 Fled to England not Speaking the language to live with his mum as a refugee got told he wouldn’t be sold i front if his mother unless a 30 million bud came in ( made his mother cry ) felt like an object lads made some poor decisions but he’s probably been through more some can imagine on here it’s hard for me to justify what he’s done but it’s harder to try and understand what it’s like going through key problems in his life that he’s faced without having the right guidence and discipline around me and I didn’t grow up until I was 31 and my son was born even now I like to act like a child I think sometimes instead of trying to pick everyone’s faults to bit as fans we can do our hit by supporting their efforts they put in when wearing our shirt 6 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can all be dicks and so stupid stuff. Getting caught driving under the influence 4 times is taking the ******** though. Luckily he’s not hurt anyone. At the end of the day if Darren Moore thinks he can change him fair play. Just don’t be surprised when he doesn’t and everyone moans that he was a waste of a wage. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll not be surprised or moan As redknapp said when he signed do Camio from us for West Ham “I don’t care what anyone says I’ve signed a f&@king genius” went on to be a West Ham legend we’re a league one club this could be an obscene player for us on the pitch it’s what I pay my money for to see it in the pitch I’ve 0 influence on wages, dressing room, personalities, professionalism and I trust those that do to manage that so have we signed a player of quality at this level I’d like to think yes 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but I’d rather our club wasn’t involved in his rehabilitation. Is the gamble that, against all the odds, he rediscovers his form of 2016 worth the negatives of employing a driunk, drug cheat who fell out with Brentford, WBA and Stoke? None of his previous clubs have fought to keep him Why would we want him ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of his previous clubs have fought to keep him Why would we want him ? Personally, I'm happy to judge him based on what he does from this point onwards. He's spoken previously about his battles with depression and how he feels he wasn't mature enough in parts of his career. We'll see how it pans out. Certainly the natural ability is there for him to be a cut above at this level. Hopefully he's willing and able to do the right things to get his career back on track. As for being a 'drugs cheat', that's not quite accurate: he was banned for taking a recreational drug, not a performance-enhancing one. There's nothing to suggest he's a cheat. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He trained at 100% all the time by all accounts and wasn’t impressed by some players around him These other players are the opposite of that, and that’s why they slide down the leagues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick70 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Sooner or later we’ll get lucky with one of these kind of signings? Will be this player...have my doubts think it’ll be another Andre green scenario? We all make mistakes in life and sometimes you’ve made it before realising wot you have done. It’s learning from them and not doing it again that’s the important part . It’s never too late to change and hopefully proved me and 1000s of others wrong knuckles down bangs loads in gets us up maybe gets himself a big move again ( might be part of deal if all goes right) . I have my doubts just my opinion.....go on kid prove me wrong 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesteel. Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Seems like he settled at WBA with the various father figures but lost his head when held back. Id like to think DM can be that kind of figure to him here. No one told him DC will never let him leave though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love DiCanio, but let’s not try and rewrite history. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul.. Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 The ability he has he should have been setting the Belgian league alight, but he barely did anything there which is really strange, if anyone can get the old Saido out of him it's 100% Darren Moore so for that sense I'll see it as an exciting signing and not worry about what has gone on before! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
