Figo even when 70 yrs old would put in better crosses than Deki and Maxwell.

He's starting to be Mihajlovic, useless unless for crosses.

Figo is useless on the flanks, he doesnt have the pace for it anymore.

But he can still make the unexpected and accurate pass, unlike our other midfielders.

Just play him behind the strikers in a more static position with minimal defensive duties. Then he should be an asset.

He did this in pre-season. He is an intelligent man, both on and off the pitch, so he can in an extent make up for his lack of pace. He looked good in pre-season in the role that you mention.

This team needs Figo, Quaresma and Mancini are faster than Figo, but speed is not everything. He has ideas and that´s what this team needs. I had some bad games but he´ll be an important player this season.

Yes, that's what I want to say.

He play in a portugal movie called "Second Life". It's an erotic thriller. Figo can be seen in the role of a movie producer who use the casting-couch :)

I'm glad to see Figo back in the team contributing, after he picked up the injury early in the season I was concerned he may end up fading into obscurity in his final season with us. Thankfully I was wrong and he is back playing some good football, and hitting some form too just in time for the business end of the season.

Even if he isn't starting, it's still useful to have a player of Figo's experience and calibre to be able to call on.

Yea sure he scored a nice goal and I like figo, but to be honest he was not good. Didnt contribute in any way, accept for the goal and hes freekicks and corners

The goal was pretty much his only contribution to the game. I was disappointed with his general play as he slowed down our game (which generally is already slow). He wasn't really willing to make himself available by making use of any available space. Current Figo should come in for the last 15-20min of a game where we are 2 or 3 goals up.

Generally I’m disappointed with our lack of movement off the ball. I hope Mou has a thing or two to say to our players about this.

Figo Eyes Future Inter Coaching Role - Report

Inter midfielder Luis Figo could find himself sitting on the bench for all the right reasons next term as Jose Mourinho's coaching pupil.

Sportal.it have reported the Portuguese ace will be taking up a coaching course in order to begin earning his badges for the future. Figo's current deal with the Nerazzurri expires at the end of the season, but the club have not moved forward to make his future secure.

The reports suggests Figo will continue playing under Mourinho next term, but he will begin coaching lessons in order to plan for a future as the 'Special One's' assistant. The former Ballon d'Or winner is hoping to continue his days at San Siro as he eyes a brighter future.

Reports in Italy earlier this season claimed the former Barcelona and Real Madrid midfielder was considering hanging up his boots, but those rumours are unlikely.

The Portuguese ace has been used sparingly this season by Mourinho. The Nerazzurri are currently on course for the Scudetto, as they sit 10 points ahead of Juventus.
