Posted October 6, 200816 yr He seems to have disappeared without a trace this season. Just a couple of appearances on the bench but definitely behind Hilario in the pecking order. Last week he played for the reserves against Portsmouth rather than travel to Cluj. Is he struggling with injury or maybe just winding down to retirement and a coaching role? Maybe his portuguese isn't good enough? Very strange.
October 6, 200816 yr Is he struggling with injury? That's your answer he has been injured for nearly four weeks now - and that's why he played in the reserves
October 6, 200816 yr That's your answer he has been injured for nearly four weeks now - and that's why he played in the reserves I thought he was on the bench for our last 2 league games?
October 6, 200816 yr He isn't listed as being injured (or having been injured) anywhere. That's what Spy or was it Gigi said on Chelsea TV the other day
October 6, 200816 yr Isn't he with Valerie? Yes, she re-trained as a physio recently. Can't imagine why!
October 6, 200816 yr You know, I was wondering this the other day. He must be getting on a bit now... and Hilario's no spring chicken.
