He was playing, scoring and assisting for Villareal last season. He's also one of these players that 'never had pace' so can probably still cut it at a fairly decent level.

Get him in the Gylfi role!

He played 30 times in La Liga last season, I'd be amazed if someone doesn't pick him up sharpish. In fact the publicity might kill this deal for Crawley, unless he knows someone there (hence the 'talks' in the first place). Would welcome Pires at RFC!

The publicity works completely in Pires' favour. The only reason I can think of for him being off the radar for other clubs is the concern about wages - if Crawley can pick him up then surely other teams can afford him too.

When are you going to give up the "I hate the French" charade Spaccer. It's getting old.

He was born in France but his parents are from elsewhere.

Wikipedia Wrote:

Robert Pirès was born in Reims to a Portuguese father and Spanish mother

Does that mean that Spacey won't hate him after all ? :shock:

Perhaps not, he was a Gooner after all.

Whether he's from France or not, it doesn't matter, he's still played for Arse and is a confirmed diving cheat.

Neither were confirmed diving cheats.

Did I attribute the "diving cheats" tag to foreigners? Read my post again and come back with a better response.
