THE MIGHTY BORO WERE GOING UP, WERE GOING UP, WERE GOING UP!!!

He was never lazy like Romario

[@Whendeesle]

Romario had more ability in his little toe than this fella had in his whole body

[@vika0194]

@@WhendeesleDon’t disrespect Afonso. He was insanely good but made the mistake to go to the PL. He had no confidence there and couldn’t play like he used to.

[@Whendeesle]

@@vika0194 never said he wasn’t but if you think he is remotely comparable to Romario you need serious help

[@vika0194]

@@Whendeesle You need some help with your attitude. ”Never said he wasnt’”. Look at what you wrote and try to be better instead. Talking about a toe.

[@Whendeesle]

@@vika0194 hahahaha we all see that edited😂mate your comparing AFONSO ALVES to Romario get a grip one man done it at world cups best teams in Europe while the other had a couple good seasons for herenveen😭

Quem?

[@vika0194]

Are you really dumb?

[@iEchoXD]

Yeah a flashback to that complete waste of money.

[@GeorgeUK84]

Afonso was a GREAT player! Boro shouldn't have printed "Afonso Alves" on his jersey and given him number 12 (which is for backup goalkeepers). He would have been a star had he been given the number 10 jersey with just "Afonso" on the back.

[@vika0194]

@@GeorgeUK84 Problem was that he wasn’t comfortable there. Not his type of team.
