Hey Ed001, I've just seen Ribery has moved to Fiorentina. I know it's a slower paced league and that he still showed flashes of quality last season, but at 36 how do you think he'll manage?

Surprised its Robben who retired over him. Which speaking of, Robben recently came out and said Pep was the best coach he played under. I hadn't thought Pep was that popular with the Bayern players.

{Ed001's Note - Ribery has never impressed me, I have never been a fan at all. He is injury prone, a complete bell and not all that good a player either. He only shows flashes at any point in his career. However they don't mind that in Italy so he will be fine and carry on being as ridiculously overrated as he always has been.

Robben is one player mate, a lot of the Bayern players were not happy with him but some loved him.}

Cheers for the quick reply Ed001. From what I read he enjoyed the intensity and the idea that at 30 there were ways to improve, whereas that intensity just seems to drain others.

{Ed001's Note - a lot of players dislike being constantly rotated as well, they just want to play. Whereas Robben can't play every game and needs to be rotated in and out to avoid injury.}
