The Price is Right – number 2

Hello, and welcome to the next episode of “The Price is Right”, with your host, Dr Sulaiman Al-Fahim of the Abu Dhabi United Group!

Now that Manchester Shitty have got all this lovely money to play with, they’re making all sorts of bold and somewhat rash predictions about who they’re going to sign. It doesn’t matter who they are, what they cost, or who much they’ll need to be bribed paid; apparently it doesn’t even matter if they stopped playing ninety years ago! Hell, they’ll just build a time machine and go back and get them!

Now, we here at Grumpy Towers have managed to get hold of Shitty’s shopping list; this is a top secret list of their transfer targets. All you have to help you identify each transfer target is one partly obscured image and a  vague description – sounds like one of Kevin Keegan’s team talks when he was King of the Kippax!

If you think you can identify today’s mystery transfer target, leave your answer (and your name) via the comments link below. Winners wil be named and suitably rewarded when I can think of a prize, or indeed if anyone even answers. Are you ready to play The Price is Right?

The Price is Right!

Today’s mystery transfer target is an international forward who played in four different countries, and lists three different European Cup winning teams on his CV. During his most successful spell in his home country, his team won the league four times in succession and he finished top scorer in the league five years running. He is the only player to have won the Ballon d’Or whilst playing in this particular country. He played in the 1986 World Cup and the 1992 European Championship. In his native country, one of his particular tricks with the ball is so famous that it is now named after him. At his last foreign club, he was voted the club’s best foreign player of all time earlier this year. He began his managerial career with an amateur side, but was swiftly snapped up by one of the coutry’s bigger teams to help them return to the top division.
