It's better to burn out, than to fade away.

Press conference at 7 to announce the signing.
The King Is Back.
SSN breaking news: Gervinho having his medical today.
Welcome.
He needs a nickname.
And a haircut.
And a new face.
http://www.goal.com/en/news/89/afric...tys-kolo-toureManchester City’s suspended central defender Kolo Toure has declared that his compatriot Gervinho of French Ligue 1 champions Lille will be the next Samuel Eto’o, considering the Ivorian’s dribbling skills and pace.
Kolo, who is currently on vacation in Cote D’Ivoire, expressed his vision about Gervinho to Sport-Ivoire on Tuesday, days after the 24-year-old former Le Mans winger was named Ivorian footballer of the year.
“Gervinho is very skilful, he’s young, swift and technical,” Kolo said. “I call him the next Samuel Eto’o. He merits being Cote D’Ivoire’s player of the year and I hope he will roll out another brilliant season. I pray he joins a club where he could express his talent the more to the world.”
Kolo earlier purchased Gervinho’s Lille jersey for $4,000 during the award ceremony, when it was put up for a bid meant to re-equip a public hospital pillaged during the country’s post election crisis.
Both players are products of the famous Abidjan-based football academy, Mimosifcom, where the likes of Yaya Toure and Salomon Kalou were groomed.
Reasonably happy with this one.
Now if only we can keep the other two...
The King Is Back.
