Tekel Towers » Joaquim Ferraz Q+A

Tek · 09/6/2021 5:34 pm

To help break-up the monotony of the close season and no Dundee Utd action, i aim to hold two or three Q+A's with former Utd players.

The first one is 9.30pm tonight with Utd's former Portugese Centre Forward, Joaquim Ferraz.

So, get your questions at the ready for the big man 👍

I was not impressed because I knew already his value. He is a great player that have some ordinary problems of adaptation, but I think that next season he going to be in the best of his performance

hi, My favorite memories were the goals I score against Dundee, amazing atmosfear! At the time United had a lot of great players like Billy Dods, Sigy Jonshon, Jason de Dos, Alex Mathie, David Hanna.. and a lot of other young players. The season was not great because he have some injuries and lost Billy Dods para o Rangers.

The defenders in Scotland were very Strongs and the duels were always hard to win. the back defenders of Rangers were the most difficult.

Yes I Did meet him. He always had something to encourage the players.. I remember one time, In the beginning of the seasons that I was not fit yet, e said to me: You know how to score, you need to be fit fast because we need what you have to give to us.
