In the annals of Premier League history, few transfers capture the imagination quite like Michu's move to Swansea City. A relatively unknown Spanish forward, hi

What a sublime player Michu was; an incredible find who propelled Swans to compete with the best of the best. I was at The Emirates that day and will never forget those final few minutes, 2 goals and the look on Arsene Wenger's face.

In recent seasons during some dark days of turgid non football presided over by, frankly frauds, I would turn to YouTube and watch Michu's 22 goal reel and thank my lucky stars that I was around to witness his performances.

so sad that injury cut his career so short. up with the very best to play for my Swans

His sad demise as a footballer definitely reminds me of what happened to Bodde.

Just imagine how electric the attacking third would have been had they been given the chance to play to together.

A wistful look crosses my face at the thought of such a fantastic combo.

I always kinda think that Bodde in the PL would have ended up a bit like Shelvey. Capable of moments of absolute genius, but also moments of complete insanity.

Ultimately too mad and/or dim to be relied upon completely at that level, but it would have been fun to watch either way.
