http://sportsworld.nbcsports.com/jose-fonte-early-days-stardom/ Fantastic read this, only half way through so far but had to post it. EDIT - HE SAYS HE WANTS TO PLAY IN THE USA! MELTDOWN! EXODUS! EVERYBODY PANIC!
Journo's making stuff up. Being serious, Fonte will always be one of my fave Saints players of all time. If he decides to go to the USA in a year or two then fair play to him.
Great read..though I found it very hard to get past his tight black T-shirt in the first sentence Like the way Fonte even suggests winning the league as a target...once brainwashed by Nicola, you stay brainwashed . Interesting that he suggests he improved by playing with Lovren....things are not always as we fans see it.
For Fonte, Lovren arrived at the right moment, as a defensive pairing they worked things out together and Jose definitely improved through Lovrens influence. It was just a shame that Dejan went "bad" as I am sure he would have been better off staying here, he didn't, he left under a cloud and any respect for him has long gone.
He improved Fran because he had to play like superman to make up for that bellend who left to sit on liverpool's bench.
There was a late, promotion deciding goal at Brighton this weekend and it reminded me of one of my favourite moments as a Saints fan.
In the list of videos after yours Piri was this one, referred to quite recently, but the video wasn't shown. Great day, and a young Bolasie scored a consolation goal while making me wonder whether he was worth signing:
My favourite as well....was when I realised just how talented Fonte was Still amazed he didn't get into serious trouble for running that distance into the crowd.
