Players Who Have Left With Blessing

Hi All,

Sorry about filling up JA with my nonsense (long time reader and registered but never really got involved in debates due to pointless WUM and constant BS)

Being a LFC fan and wishing Soto good luck got me thinking,

what players have been sold or left your team with a genuine good luck or blessing and no animosity?

Cheers and please keep this a proper football debate

hmmm a midfield coach...Hamman? Loved the guy, he always gave his all for the team - imo, one of the best foreigners that came to us along with Sami

was a shame about Babbel, quality player....do i remember him playing centre half for a few games too?

Agreed about Hamann, I have heard he was a real character in the dressing room too.

Ive heard a bit about Didi Hamman being a bit of a lad. If he wasnt training he was at a bookies in West Kirby, ciggie in mouth betting on the dogs.
Apparently his wife is a greyhound trainer as well.

I read a bit in Carras book that Houllier used to hold him up as a shining example to the rest of the squad and at night Didi went out and raised hell!

Big Jan Molby was another like that. He'd be getting carried out of The Conti at two in the morning and thirteen hours later he'd be pulling the strings in the centre of the park.

Ahh yes those were the days, they broke the mould when big Jan came off the supply line. I can imagine Carra, Jan and Didi out on the swig!

Didi Haman was in the cool rooms in Birkenhead quite often!

Riise, Alonso, Garcia, Hamann, all correct but all obvious. Why does no-one ever seen to remember Steve Finnan? Like Riise, we never really recognised his contribution until he'd gone, but what an outstandingly consistent defender he was.

yes Finnan was consistently good for us i agree, reminded me of a modern day Rob Jones!

makes me wonder though why has no-one said Big Igor would be welcomed back?!!
