That's quite enough of that memory.

Watching Corradi's debut on TV is one of the worst moments of my City supporting life. To see that our new signing runs like a duck with no feet in a gale, chucks himself over at every opportunity & is completely unprofessional to go with it, was fucking soul destroying. It was so obvious that he had no purpose whatsoever & the horrific realisation hit home; that I'd probably have to watch the twat for a whole season.
I wasn't surprised though. I saw him few times for Valencia that year he was there and he looked really gash. Then, when we signed him, I went to some English speaking Spanish football board and found a topic about him. People were saying that he had been chosen as worst import player in La Liga! Knew it wouldn't be too rosy by then. I've seen him few times in Serie A since he left and he has been nothing short of abysmal there as well. Seems like a bad dream now.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?
