eelpie Posted 26 January, 2009 Posted 26 January, 2009 Another player not good enough for Saints, but good enough for the Premiership. That was down to Burley, wasn't it? How we could do with Pele now. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/p/portsmouth/7850798.stm

How we could do with Pele now. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/p/portsmouth/7850798.stm I think it's a different one to the Pele we had a while ago
Saints67 Posted 26 January, 2009 Posted 26 January, 2009 I'm sure this is a different Pele from 'our' Pele. How many of these Peles are there out there?
buctootim Posted 26 January, 2009 Posted 26 January, 2009 I'm sure this is a different Pele from 'our' Pele. How many of these Peles are there out there? Pele is Portuguese for 'lots'. True story.
stevegrant Posted 26 January, 2009 Posted 26 January, 2009 I'm sure this is a different Pele from 'our' Pele. How many of these Peles are there out there? Probably quite a lot - after all, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. In forty years time, there'll be hundreds of David Beckhams...
Mr X Posted 26 January, 2009 Posted 26 January, 2009 er............. thats a different pele by the way http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vítor_Hugo_Gomes_Paços
sfc6mufc3 Posted 26 January, 2009 Posted 26 January, 2009 Sold Diarra and bought Mullins - glad to see they are suffering as well=D>
a1ex2001 Posted 27 January, 2009 Posted 27 January, 2009 Interestingly the Pele who did play for us seems to be rotting in west broms reserves, he's only made three first team appearences this season. Could he be the tackling midfielder we need? I'm sure West Brom would like to get him off the wage bill!
oxfordshire_saint Posted 27 January, 2009 Posted 27 January, 2009 Indeed it is a completely different Pele. The one Pompey have signed is a young Portuguese central midfielder who joined Porto last year from Inter Milan as part of the Ricardo Quaresma deal. He hasn't got a game at Porto so has joined P*mpey on loan. As far as I know, the Pele we had is rotting in the ressies at West Brom.

How we could do with Pele now. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/p/portsmouth/7850798.stm I wouldn't get too excited. I think Pele is not an uncommon name these days, and usually " borrowed" by Latin / S.American players who have unpronouncable names in the first place...but at least it gets them noticed !
david in sweden Posted 27 January, 2009 Posted 27 January, 2009 Probably quite a lot - after all, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. In forty years time, there'll be hundreds of David Beckhams... No there won't! ..they'll all be called ... "Brooklyn" .. "Romeo " ...or "Cruise " mind you they all sound like names from some third-rate American soap.....
david in sweden Posted 27 January, 2009 Posted 27 January, 2009 ...............is this the new striker Mark Wotte was talking about ...?
eelpie Posted 27 January, 2009 Author Posted 27 January, 2009 So... the Pele we signed wasn't actually the one who's real name is Edison Arantes do Nascimento. We were robbed. lol
Junior Mullet Posted 27 January, 2009 Posted 27 January, 2009 Probably quite a lot - after all, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. In forty years time, there'll be hundreds of David Beckhams... Or hundreds of Steve Grants
