I meant about Elano's past ;-/ imo i dont think he would have shone against Brum.

From what i remember he was a lazy sulking fucker most of the time and went missing in games more often than he produced something special. If he was all that then why is he playing in Turkey and not Spain, Italy or even for another top club in England?

Where did Anelka go when we sold him?

to this guy).
Barry (in his current form) and NDJ are DM's by nature and offer nothing going forward.
On his worst days, Elano could have made a move or two which would have meant the difference between winning and drawing.
We of course also miss Robbie's creativity and magic moves/passes.

Spot On there Dubai, we are too one-dimensional without that creative spark, Hughes had enough time to replace Elano with a better player or one of the same standard, and he failed in the last 3 weeks, instead chasing Lescott

Yeah - unless the match just happened to coincide with one of those days when he could have been bothered

With Gareth and NDJ around him we have become hard to beat,but to me he always seems to be sideways or is facing the wrong way making him have to pass sideways or backwards.
Elano and Robson were/are able to pass to him when he was facing the right way,so he could be creative.
For all Elano's faults I think he was far more of an attacking threat than Gareth and NDJ.
I dont think Stevie will flourish until there is attack minded players like Robson and Elano on the pitch with him.
Maybe it will change and Gareth will be more adventurous in future but there seems little in his play at the moment to suggest this to me.
As long as we continue like this in being hard to beat I dont think Hughes will change it.
I think in future when MJ gets match fit he will be able to do what Elano did(better I hope)and find Stevie with passes that allow him time and space to be creative.

I dont know tbh.

A little bit of trivia for you Lewis.
Did you know that Ribery played for Gala for a short time once.
They get called a shit team and I dont think they are that bad.
Along with Anelka I think they have had some decent players over the years.
