Taken from the F365 website, i've altered an article for a little fun.  Players names please, bonus points for filling in the blanks.  Obv don't look at 365 and list them if you've already read it on their.


From those who have fallen a long way, to those who didn't actually have that far to fall, there are plenty of players that you might think 'Are they still around?' Here are ten of those unfortunates...


10 - ?
The other players on this list had a way to fall, but relegation enthusiast _______ 'makes the cut' because of the depths he has sunk to at West Ham. For that's where he is still contracted, in case you'd forgotten. Last seen making three unspectacular appearances while on loan at ________ last season, ________ has now apparently (and this is according to a certain Sunday tabloid prone to hyperbole, so take it as you will) been totally frozen out by Gianfranco Zola, and has been told in no uncertain terms to stay the hell away from the team, the stadium, the training ground, the tea lady - the lot. And this in a team with no pot to p**s in, without two pennies to rub together and with a playing staff thinner than Peter Crouch's pinkie.

9 - ?
When he broke into the Manchester City first team a couple of years ago, mouths watered at the prospect of this strong, quick and massively talented player. 'A future England captain,' we thought.  Fabio Capello doesn't fancy him either, and though he still has plenty of time to live up to his potential, it's been a curious decline.

8 - ?
One of Jose Mourinho's first purchases after he joined Chelsea in 2004. Now It is probably only his ability to fill in at left-back that has kept him at Chelsea, and one imagines that this situation will not persist for long.

7 - ?
We're big fans of the _________ flyer here at Football365, but it seems that circumstances are against him this season. He missed the start of the season due to injuries, and further niggles. He says he wants to stay at _________, but he's 30 and as a winger, he doesn't have too many more years left. Perhaps he should seek a regular gig in January.

6 - ?
Sure, Alex Ferguson purchased the _______ winger as a prospect, but aside from a couple of not terribly convincing appearances in cups League and FA, _______ has been a ghost at Old Trafford. And this at a time when the wide positions at United are up for grabs. ________ is obviously viewed as one for the future, but it seems odd that he has been given so little chance since moving to Manchester in January. In any case, the Da Silva brothers were bought with similar eyes on times to come last summer, but they've chalked up more than two dozen appearances in positions where United are positively flush.

5 - ?
Scorer of 13 goals last season and 36 at a rate of slightly worse than one every other start since joining _________, this season looked like it would be perfect for _________.   _________ has only started once in the league and looks to be on his way out of ________ in January.

4 - ?
In truth, alarm bells should have been ringing loudly when Barcelona let the man once known as the next Ronaldinho go so easily, and for a mere £____million in 2008. A year and a half and two starts later, and the bargain is starting to look like a rip-off. The ________ has a reputation as something of a nightlife connoisseur, so perhaps bringing him to the land of Faces wasn't the brightest idea in the world, but even if he's developed a taste for the classier hotspots of Essex, his form has been desperately disappointing.

3 - ?
You could fill this list with dregs from the ________ reserves (_______  _________ is just astoundingly unlucky rather than forgotten), but the ________ has seen less action than a eunuch monk in recent times, partly due to a series of injuries but also because of the lashings and lashings of cash splashed on ________ other attacking options. A move either on loan or permanently to Hull has been mooted.

2 - ?
Recently ________ was handed an ideal opportunity to reclaim a first-team spot, but blew it in style, producing a performance that impressively combined both unreasonable arrogance and torpor, the nadir of which was a ridiculous attempt to reprise his _________ of last season's corresponding fixture, with inevitably hilarious results. One imagines it will be back to the bench and kicking footballs into skips for ______.

1 - ?
We've been accused of having a bit of an obsession with _______, but we genuinely believe he's one of the most underrated players in the world, never mind the Premier League. That's why we were delighted when he left __________ to stay in the Premier League last summer, even if it was for _________. However, it hasn't exactly gone to plan, finding himself on the bench for the majority of his time at ______, the nadir coming when he was the man sacrificed after _________ was sent off at Hull the other week, despite only being on the pitch for six minutes.
It doesn't seem to be anyone's fault either. _______ has a system that works, with ________ providing the perfect foil for ________ up front, leaving the most talented member of the ________ squad twiddling his thumbs on the sidelines..

Doesn't really fit for Richards imo - Michael Johnson?
