    oleee...finally we got our CB:weee:

    :agree:


    We don't usually sign players who have recently spent 9 months out injured.
    Was he injured? No wonder I didnt see him in LaLiga. That explains Depor's poor performance this season. I am relieved to know that he wasnt part of it.

    He missed some of it. The injury also made him miss the World Cup last summer.

    this guy is good but he need another solid cb beside him,we cant play with him (chiellini or criscito) against milan,inter or even roma.We will suffer a lot in defense if we didnt get another solid cb!!

    his best displays were in the Cl 2004 where he combined with Nour el Dine Naybet to form one of europe's most solid defense at this time!! We played deportivo in the last 16 round in 2004 & they won at home & in Delli Alpi(1_0)! we didnt score once in the 2 games!! I remember very well Montero's mistake in the 2nd game in Delli Alpi & Appia's shot from the middle of the field which went to hit the higher bar!~

    Man, everyone keeps ragging on Andrade's injuries like he's bag o' glass Trezeguet here. The guy had his leg snapped in half during a match at the end of the 2005-2006 season, so he had to sit out WC 2006 plus much of the La Liga last year. He's been back since Spring and, IMO, looks solid. Though I suspect he's not 100% just yet.

    Will he ever be up to his old 100%? That is a risk. But his current 90+% seems pretty damn good thus far. Is he injury prone? No more than you would be if someone broke your leg a year ago.
