georgeweahscousin Posted 12 August, 2014 Share Posted 12 August, 2014 Doing some research for a traditional 'Lowdown' piece on Gardos. Remember Raducanu? He scored Steaua's goal at St. Mary's in the UEFA cup in 2003, and then the winner in the away leg. Anyway... ...he now plays for FC Romania in the Essex Senior Premier League. Irrelevant but interesting. [video=youtube;oKZY4RL-rV4] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he was injured at the moment? If he is able to play vs Liverpool, great. Even if he only meets his new team mates a couple of days before, surely still an upgrade on Yoshida.

I remember Lulic from the World Cup. A Bosnian starter and all energy left sided player (in an advanced type role) who got himself into a few goal scoring positions without converting, but I see his record for Lazio is not too shabby on the goal scoring front.

It seems people were putting 2 and 2 together to make 5, that it was another player. Are we to believe the stories of him being injured and needed another medical or do we believe the Romanian media that he was coming to England on Monday..
