Did anyone see that Tsunami Charity game last night. The finest footballers in the world on display, among them Beckham, Zidane, Ballack, Henry, Raul, Ronaldinho, Shevchenko's etc. And RIGOBERT SONG ![:-/](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/undecided.png) What on earth was he doing on the pitch ![???](//storage.proboards.com/1258782/images/ZEjvtQKOmLArVPumuTsh.png) I went to Anfield about 6 years ago when he played for Liverpool against West Ham. In the bookies under the stand he was 500/1 to score the first goal. I had never before (or since) seen anybody at that price so I had to have a quid on him. When I put the bet on the bookie said "you haven't seen him play much have you mate ![;)](http://www.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/winking/winking0070.gif) " He was appauling. Sods law - 6 months later Harry bought him for West Ham, where he got even worse. Definate rival to Rioch for the worst full back I've ever seen live ![:-/](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/undecided.png) What was he doing on that pitch last night ![:-/](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/undecided.png)

camara was also playing??? There was me thinking that only the best players in the world were playing, not players on loan from a struggling championship club ![::)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/eyesroll.png)

It was to get a spread of nationalities and to cover the fact that many players couldn't be there - no Man United attendees, hmmm, while Henry was there despite having played a top flight game less than 24 hours previously

I went there. And it's Camp Nou or Nou Camp ![;)](http://www.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/winking/winking0070.gif) Funniest things ever! Camara scoring twice! (has he ever done that before?), Gerrard playing centre half for most of the second half... Minute of silence was the most appalling thing ever! About 30 secs of it and interrupted by whistling, shouts and boos. AS for the worse player on the pitch...can't look further than Raúl ![:-X](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/lipssealed.png) We were also taking the p**s out of Ronaldinho's XI number 7, Cha. HE scored a good goal to be fair but if he's in a world XI then I'm Mother bloody Theresa.

its all very well slagging off half the team, but the match was to raise money for charity and was supposed to unite players from all over the world, hench the inclusion of players like Song, Cha, Park, Suazo etc.
Whether the players were 'eligible' for their sides is irrelevant, and Montero also played for europe.
Incidentally, Song had a decent performance and Cha showed more quality than many of the 'big' names on show.

Henry played for 20mins only didn't he? Or it seemed like that kind of time!

6 months later Harry bought him for West Ham, where he got even worse. Definate rival to Rioch for the worst full back I've ever seen live 1) Did enable the Scousers to chant "We've only got 1 Song", which was mildly amusing. 2) Saw the Hammers play at Filbert Street, year escapes me, lost 2-1 when Savage I seem to recall got the winner and then jumped headlong into the crowd - Song was far & away the best player on the pitch Perhaps I caught him on a good day ![:o](http://www.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/scared/scared0015.gif)

You must have Mark ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) 1) Serge Rebrov only scored 3 goals for spurs - 2 of them when song was marking him 2) New years day 2001 at Old Trafford played a one two with Beckham for Beckham to open the scoring ![:-/](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/undecided.png) 3) Same year at Villa Park he backhealed a 15 yard og ![:-/](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/undecided.png) I could go on but I'm busy applying to join Fenerbache ![::)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/eyesroll.png)
