No, because Sheva doesn't have EU status.

thats what he gets for not having "the stones" and listening to his wife.
look at this picture, he didnt want to leave.

Are you a Grateful Dead fan?

I think some of us are a little bit too harsh

Sheva will always be a legend - lets remember the good times not the bad the second highest scorer for our club just behind Nordhal.

and for the record:
i wish he could come back. i dont have any hard feelings, just that he should not have left in the first place.

Yes, but he also betrayed our trust, something Nordhal didnt do....its one thing to talk the talk, but another to walk the walk...and he walked...to Chelski.

If he does return (which is extremely doubtful) then, I will welcome his goals, but nothing else...as long as he delivers to our expectations and scores goals for his pay, then thats all good...and thats how it would be for me...he is nothing more than an employee...and no where near the "hero" status that Kaka, Clarence, Rino, Nesta etc enjoy.

Good stuff.

I went to prep school in Massachusetts, and they were huge there.

I can't say I particularly like or dislike them. 20 years...that's something. I was just getting into football 20 years ago.

Pity? I feel nothing but contempt on a good day, on a bad day, I feel nothing.

He looks like "can I have a turn please Mr Mourinho" in that pic

@ Milan he used to be like "put me on so I can save your sorry asses again Carlo"

He betrayed all of us thats the truth and to be honest it really hurt last year. Warro I was in the same position like you and I know how you felt but look at us now we're the kings of Europe, I had a big grudge against him early last season but its all gone now I still have respect for him. We are talking of a player who had many good times with us and handed us the Scuddeto and the CL a few years back. He has done more for Milan than I or any other fan could do, thats the way people should be thinking.

His football career is going in a downward direction but come the next young generation of Milan fans, im sure they will hear Shevas name and they will watch videos of him in Milan not in Chelsea or any other team but Milan because he spent the best part of his football career with us, i dont want them to look at how we treated him because they will feel the same, instead I want them to respect him like we should do.

Er...er.....er

I guess we should be classier than to hate him for his mistake.....I mean we all make them + I'll finally get to see my dream attack of Sheva-Ronaldo...the most complete attack ever......well sort of...two years ago for sure..but now...

They will of course respect him, as in truth, I do...I respect him as a player, with vast talent, who unfortunately made a mistake late in his career...I do indeed respect him, I just:
a) Dont really want him back in Milan colours,
b) Wont accord him "hero" status...thats for Maldini, Weah, Rui Costa, etc.
c) Continue to hope that he starts to perform for Chelsea...but only in the EPL of course, not in Europe.

Nuff said?

we still have a eu spot as it were, technically could another seria A side sign him, then sheva move to us?

Completely agree with Warro...... Love him,worship him,respect him,hate if if u want... but lets just move on, Its not like i`f heard that his saying his made a mistake and wants to turn back... his stated that his happy in London. lets leaf it that way...

It hurt a lot, but milan is a team orientated club, not player orientated......We indeed were successfull since he left.....

Love the Avatar! Favorite show?

I know it's probably overhyped, but May 8, 1977 is it for me! I have almost every show on cd from '77 (incredible year for them) but the 5/8 show feels the most "complete". After 5/8/77 then #2 would be the 8/13/75 - My favorite version of my favorite GD song(s) Help->Slipknot. That and Sage and Spirit are just beautiful...

And by your name, I'm guessing your a phish fan too?
