REMEMBER ME SERIES

Blonde curly hair, two-footed, ability on both wings, eight years in Juventus, any familiar chord struck yet? Jersey Number 11 jersey for Juventus for many years, ex winner of  Ballon d'or award as European player of the year as well. NO not Zinedine great great player as well anyway. Seen as a replacement for Zidane in fact when Juventus splashed out 41Million Euros. A Czech republic player and four (4) times Czech footballer of the year. Possessing the ability to surge through defences with power and making best of defence combinations look so clueless at times. Remember me now?

I enjoyed so much success in my time with the old ladies and I was with the club when the Calcio poli crisis struck. Played for Czech republic in Euro 2004 up to the semi finals when we got beaten by eventual winners, Greece. Any Ideas?

  There yet? If no, well its Pavel Nedved. Not been gone for long but it feels like forever. He also enjoyed a good playing time with Lazio from where he moved to Juventus. A truely great footballer. Below are some of his moments in pictures.

Nightmare to defenders

Remember That name always... Nedved

Next week I would bring to your remembrance a player who was a nightmare to many strikers. Played in England, Italy and Holland. Thinking cap on...
