S-Clarke Posted 13 February, 2014 Share Posted 13 February, 2014 Bit of a cult hero really. You always have players during an era who aren't brilliant....but are still really popular, and Guly is one of those. He's not an amazing player, but he's made a terrific contribution to us over the last 3-4 years. 100 apps now for us, which says it all. He's a good lad and is well liked around the place, would be sad to see him leave, but hope he manages to get a club over in Brazil. He definitely deserves a fitting send off in the Man Utd game.

skintsaint Posted 13 February, 2014 Share Posted 13 February, 2014 Wanyama is a really key player for us i reckon, i hope he can get his spot back from cork. He is proper black though so makes up for it, leaves fingerprints on charcoal etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david in sweden Posted 13 February, 2014 Share Posted 13 February, 2014 (edited) It would be the right decision, but appreciation for his contributions in the past four seasons should flow generously. Quite right and so we should. Looking back at his You Tube video, you can see that when he was on top form ( the first half of the Championship promotion season) he played like a real Brazilian and made it all look ..SO EASY ! He got to double figures by mid January and was near enough upto Rickie's tally. Sadly , like many strikers his form went off a bit, then Billy Sharp arrived (and outscored Rickie) and helped secure promotion. Guly was not the only player to find the move up to the Prem. a bit beyond him, but he gave us some lasting memories before he fading into the background, and at 32 he doesn't come near RL nowadays. He mentioned (in an interview last year) perhaps moving back to Brazil to finish off his career? ...maybe so ..... Good luck to him.

Badger Posted 15 February, 2014 Share Posted 15 February, 2014 remember the "taxi for Guly " thread ? L1 . Perhaps it was a bit premature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
channonball Posted 15 February, 2014 Share Posted 15 February, 2014 Every cloud has a silver lining. Hopefully the last time we'll be tormented with another inept Guly display. Hopefully Jos also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Clarke Posted 15 February, 2014 Share Posted 15 February, 2014 Guly is a good lad, but looked totally out of his depth today against a very weakened Sunderland team. He's not going to be worth anything to us in the run in. Not that we're ''running in'' to anything particular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk Yawn......the Guly apologists line up to be counted. He is one of the worst players in the P.L. Starting him vs Sunderland was like playing with ten men. He can't complete a pass of more than 5 yards to someone in a Saints shirt. He can't head the ball He won't tackle. He can't shoot. He can't score. He jogs around like it's a Sunday stroll. I'm sure he's a nice lad, but the fact is he's being paid to be a footballer, and sadly, that task is well beyond him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being an apologist for players who perform poorly on a constant basis is a Southampton tradition. You've only to mention that Davis is garbage or Guly or Jos or even Lambert and someone will jump on you quoting performances from a wet night at Dagenham or Stevenage at sometime back in the dark ages. We're no longer in League 1 or the NPC and we need players who are PL standard every last one of them. If we continue carrying the junk forward for sentimental reasons results like yesterday's will just keep on happening. I want new players, internationals every one if possible and I certainly don't want any more money wasted on Guly Do Prados and Kelvin Daviss.

Yeah, but that still made him 100,000% better than Forecast or Pulis or Jonho Quick in recent years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Window Cleaner Posted 16 February, 2014 Share Posted 16 February, 2014 Yeah, but that still made him 100,000% better than Forecast or Pulis or Jonho Quick in recent years but they don't get trotted out in important games though do they. Guly has been with us what 4 years, I feel that he has been handsomely rewarded for the little that he has produced, sums far beyond the totality paid to all the others no doubt. Past it but there's just nothing else because our youth policy is flawed somewhere along the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Sanchez Posted 16 February, 2014 Share Posted 16 February, 2014 Guly is broken, if he were in a normal job he would be on the sick going to meetings every Tuesday and Thursday, how he has risen with us says an awful lot about the internal knowledge of our club, the example to back this up is watch what clubs want him and what one secures his services.
