NICE TO MICHU

Incredible impact of silky Spanish striker

- 

THERE is a rather annoying phrase that has crept into English football over the last few years - 'the streets will never forget'.

It basically means a player who is brilliant for a relatively short period of time and leaves behind a highlight reel of magical moments but never reaches the very top of the game.

Think Hatem Ben Arfa, Adel Taarabt and Mido.

This edition of Foreign Legion focuses on Spain and the streets will definitely never forget Miguel Perez Cuesta - or Michu to me and you.

He could also feature in any one-season wonders countdown after his exploits with Swansea in the 2012-13 campaign.

Brendan Rodgers had just guided the Welsh club to an impressive 11th-placed finish before jumping ship to take the Liverpool job.
