Swanned around like a strutting peacock and about as much use when needed.
Epitomises everything wrong in today’s game
Yep.

To save you opening up the article, it seems he has set up a company to help football clubs in maintaining pitches

Probably learned that on the golf course.

True, given the amount of time he’s spent playing golf instead of football, he should be an expert horticulturalist.

Left us at 26, only played another 102 games in his whole career. About 2/3 of what he played for us.

Mad really.
Surprised he played that many to be honest. Seemed to do nothing at Villa and then he went to Luton for a season?

I bet his Golf Handicap has come right down though.

Had some pretty nice things to say about us on Ben Foster's Podcast.
He was one of my favourite players at Forest.

Did a good job for us, even when we were shit and we made good money on him as well.

He made good money out of us too, was better at conning pay rises out of Fawaz than he was football.
Can't forgive him for golfgate, he was club captain ffs. Bollocks to him.
Was he ever actually club captain? I always thought he on-field captain for an extended period of time but I thought Cohen was still club captain (he was just out injured).

I do see your point though. He hardly covered himself in glory in those last few months, particularly when he allegedly refused to play until Villa signed him. He was a very frustrating and arrogant (plus a walking yellow card). I never really got why successive managers were obsessed with playing him as this deep-lying playmaker like he was Pirlo, when he couldn't tackle and was nothing more than a decent passer. He played his best football under SOD and Billy Mk II where he was more of a box-to-box player and got in around the opposition box.

Yeah you're probably right re the captain status. He was the on the field captain at the time when "his head wasn't right" so he played golf with his mates instead of some crap FA cup 3rd round. Or something like that.

Naturally talented football with a poor work ethic and no qualms about pretending to be injured over Christmas so he could have a few drinks and be merry without having to worry about football.

Sort of epitomised that Forest era when we had a few talented players but they were always better at another club, with some of them only here to rinse Forest for money.

That we got £3m with his contract running out in six months was hilarious. As was the "we are definitely going down now" reaction on here at the time when he was sold, only for us to get stronger as a midfield unit and 11 after he left.

Genuinely one of my least favourite Forest players of all time. Shit tattoos too.

I only originally named it such because we ended up with about three at one point; the original one, one slagging him off, and another one slagging him off, and I glued them together as part of my regular tidying up.

And of course The Artist Formerly Known As Samuel has changed his username at least once more since then (I think…!?)

I think he had played the "I'm off to Burnley" card to rinse Fawaz for more money too many times, by the time he actually left most were pleased to see the back of the workshy idle fop.

Fawaz is probably thinking "how much am I paying this prick every week and he comes round scoff my mini twix and snickers dress like f***ing Catweazle"
