Introducing Ruben ‘The Aussie Voronin’ Zadkovich, Newcastle United Jets midfielder (formerly of QPR and both Notts and Derby County) and one of the most naturally limited footballers to have ever graced the A League…

Such grace, such poise, such beauty.

(Thanks to Pies fan @Trebortrebor for the poke.)

    I’m big fan of both the Jets and Rubes (as he is affectionately know), but this still gives me a laugh!

    I’ll have you know though that most Jets fans would have 11 of him on the park at once if they could!

    @Guy
    Dear god why??

    @Azz

    Admittedly, as the video shows he is prone to poor crosses and off-target shots (another nickname for him is “Row Z”).

    However… he gives 100% week in/week out, wears his heart on his sleeve, runs his arsehole out and tackles like a beast. Always hungry for the ball, even though he doesn’t always do much with it!

  5. Clayton says:

    Zadkovich is one of those guys who doesn’t do things “well enough” or “okay”. He’ll either do something really well, or completely stuff it up.

    You could also make a short video of Ruben playing well. When he is on, he has won games, been a difference maker. I would like to see more mad bastards like Ruben in the game – rather than keep your head down, play by the numbers, do nothing wrong but do nothing to help your team win robot types.

    @Azz, @Guy,

    This is why Newcastle are shite

  7. Hugh Jaas says:

    Hahaha, that’s hilarious. He must be a defender who is confusing when to make a clearance from the back with a shot on goal…Ruben, you really need to learn the difference.

    Reminds me of an old pascal Cygan tribute from 5 years back set to “I need a hero”. Worth a gander

    I am so embarrassed by the a league…from a regular viewer.

  10. Andy Carroll's Ponytail says:

    And they gave him the no. 10 shirt? Gives us all hope we can make it in professional football eh? or at least in the A League

  11. Captain Obvious says:

    brilliant

    How can someone with such a cool name be so rubbish at football?
