Now that Man City have hit the big time there was little need to employ Mr. Vassell in any capacity he was sold to Turkish side Ankaragücü (I haven’t got a clue how to say it either) and you know what…he’s only gone and scored a goal. If you look at the former Aston Villa man’s face he actually looks genuinely surprised to have scored, which given he is a professional footballer who’s job it is to score, is a little worrying, perhaps he’ll get used to this sensation, but we doubt it!
They do know they have bought Darius Vassell, right? It’s not some silly mix up. This procession looks eerily like those organised in repressive regimes who have to threaten people to pretend to support them, there simply can be no other explanation for this somewhat disturbing scene! For the record and so as to shake some sense into these people it’s worth noting that in 12 Premier League seasons Vassell has managed to get into double figures just once!
