Pelé y Diego Maradona forman parte de la lista de invitados a un homenaje por parte de la alcaldía de Santa Marta al futbolista internacional Carlos Valderrama, que esta programado para el próximo mes de noviembre. http://www.colombia.com/futbol/noticias/DetalleNoticia13146.asp
se vien una avalancha de despedidas! creo que firmo por otra temporada mas en MLS, de ahi salen por lo menos 2 partidos de goodbye ayer puso otro pase gol en el partido que perdieron contra el equipo de foxboro. lleva el record en 6 anos de pases goles, lejos esta el diablo E que es el unico que lo puede alcanzar.
El Pibe stated that he will be back for one more year. There is a link to the story in the Colombianos en el Calcio thread.
'La despedida del 'Pibe' es todavía un proyecto', dice el alcalde de Santa Marta A pesar de los rumores que se han dado en los últimos días, el encuentro está todavía en 'pañales' http://eltiempo.terra.com.co/depo/f...xtodos/ARTICULO-WEB-NOTA_INTERIOR-129172.html
....y mas con ese estadio de porquería que hay en santa marta!!!! haya donde pastan las vacas y los goles los hacen montículos de tierra... que verguenza que los "altos" directivos del futbol sudamericano vean ese potrero....
well i know that they increaced the capacity of the stadium putting and endzone in the south end... (the north end have ), but about the field i don't know...... but i'm not sure if the increases are in the cartagenas team or the union teams...
One of my favorite players ever. He would be on my World All Star team. He gave the MLS 7 great years. Parabens El Pibe. Boa sorte
The way he plays he could still play in the MLS, at least 5 more years, and still be the best playmaker in the league.
If I read the article correct his contract with the MLS finish's at the end of October. If its the end of El Pibe I wish the MLS would have done a better job of promotting is farewell.
maybe next year the MLS will give them a good farewell and a place in the Hall of Fame of soccer in USA!!!
He will be in the National Hall of Fame but he as to wait is time, I believe a couple years. If Giorgio Chinaglia, and Bogiecevic another Cosmos and playmaker made the Hall of Fame El Pibe will be in. Know according to www.majorleaguesoccer.com they say El Pibe will be back another year. The story is on the left side.
The story about El Pibe is on the right side the clean sheet El Pibe not done. El Pibe tu es o maior de todos.
best news I have heard all week. I truly hope El Pibe stays for one more year. Although the talk of moving him to another team is pretty crappy....how many times does MLS have to ship him around ? If they were to move him, I'd hand him over to Ray Hudson and DC Utd....El Pibe and El Diablo working off each other would be incredible...it would be a slow midfield, but the passing alone would have Ray talking all day and night.
here is the 7 yrs history of el Pibe and MLS came in 1996 for tampa bay - 2yrs move on to open franchise in Miami- 2yrs back to tampa Bay - 2yrs one year in denver with former coach tim H he will retire MLS days under same Coach - hankinson BTW- he will be 2yrs every where!
