Washed up certainly doesn't apply to Figo. He's still contributes considerably to Inter's success.

Beckham has been washed out for quite a long time, and so has been Ronaldo (the Brazilian, of course). According to this theory, Pauleta's retreat was, of course, self-explanatory, and Figo's too because he has done so much for Portugal and European football. At least three times in a month he plays really badly in important matches, although his performance in training is constantly good. But he needs to rest by being only substituted more and more often. Old players are not automatically washed out…

He's not washed out, he's 33 (or 34)... He WAS European player of the year, World player of the year, the leader of the 4th placed team in WC06, almost the leader of his current team where he still has an extremelly important role, etc, etc, etc... You can argue that Inter is a team with little "victory spirit" and that tradition says it's a team where most players go to end their carreers... A lot of people will back you up, true or not... Just remember this year there aren't either (Berlusconi's) AC Milan, nor (Agnelli's/FIAT's) Juventus, in the way... Which should give all the other teams the honest chance they usually never get... Anyway, going back to the point, Figo is old but certainly not washed out... But you can say what you want, CR19... ;-) What point…?

He will be playing less and less, but enjoying life and the game and still providing a club with so many options is valuable to all parties. I think Moscow would be delighted but I don't think Moscow would fly well with his wife, if it did, yeah I think Figo might give it a go. Hardly washed up CR19 !
