Hello and welcome Bonce.
I always found this true little story about Zigic funny - and just about sums him up anyway! -
Portsmouth manager Harry Redknapp has cooled his interest in Serbian striker Nikola Zigic.
The forward is one of the tallest players in world football, standing at 6ft 8in, but he has the talent to match his stature as he has attracted interest from a host of clubs.
Arsenal were credited with an interest last season and, armed with a sizeable war chest, Redknapp took a look at the forward during Crvena Zvezda's UEFA Champions League qualifier with Cork City on Tuesday.
Zigic's side claimed a 1-0 win in Ireland, but Redknapp was decidedly unimpressed with the striker's efforts.
"He was the tallest bloke on the pitch by a yard, but never won a single header all night, Redknapp said in The Sun.
"They were asking £5 million for him. Afterwards, his agent came up to me and said 'I don't think five million will buy him'.
"I replied 'I know, I'm one of them'."
