Bad Boys Of Soccer (past And Present) by twinstaiye(m): 1:29pm On Mar 23, 2006
By the way, who are the bad boys of the game of Soccer, past and present. The first that came to my mind is Rene Higuita, that Colombian Goalkeeper. He to me epitomises the baddest of a player I had the course to watch. Higuita will leave his post take the ball from his own half, ask his defenders to man the post and dribble upfront. The most captured among his antics is the one when he was in the post and need to simply catch a ball, but decided to volley the ball in an acrobatic way you will love to watch again and again.

Re: Bad Boys Of Soccer (past And Present) by nightrider: 1:54pm On Mar 28, 2006
mochafella

that was the aim of dodging the test so he could take it later in the day when it had been flushed out his system.
(Conspiracy theory though)

As far as I know, such substances don't flush out in a couple of hours, the metabolites will still be in your bloodstream. Anyway that' s beside the point of the thread.

You can add these names to the list:
Juan Esnaider
Wayne Rooney
Patrick Viera
