    Enzo Maresca

    A lot of Baggies still keep banging on about him like he was some kind of George Best.
    The facts are that apart from Sevilla he never played more than 50 games or scored more than 5 goals for anyone else.
    I tell ya, if he had been named Jack Smith, nobody would remember him today.

    Never rated him Des.

    He had a great name and that was about it.

    Having said this the transfer fee received along with the Kilbane money did help spark the Megson revival.

    Artim Sakiri was no Ineista either!

    Dick Krzywicki was as fast as Usain Bolt but was no full back (Man C away a disaster if my memory serves me well). Now that was an exotic name at the time.

    Enzo knocked on the door and asked for a trial. The £4.5m fee we got was the pivotal turning point of our recent history.
    We was going no where. Thompson played a blinder getting that fee. That sparked our revival.

    I was at that game Yarm, he kicked anything that moved and eventually got sent off.

    Krzywicki from the valleys eh?

    Yes I was there as well as there was complete surprise I remember before the game about the selection. Problem was I never saw him make many tackles legitimately as a winger so how anyone thought he could make a full back!!

    I thought Maresca was a standout player, along with Sneekes, in a team of so so players. We would have been relegated without him.

    Absolutely right mate. That and the Kilbane money.

    Maresca isn’f fit to be mentioned in the same breath as Sneekes.
