Stillian Petrov has retired.

I didn't expect him to return to be honest but it's still sad news. He's starting his own leukaemia charity apparently.

Sad news about Stan but it was to be expected really. I'd love to see him back at Celtic in some capacity in the future, he's adored there.

Why are people praising Petrov and saying he was a great player? He wasn't unless you count that third world footballing country. It is sad the way he bowed out but realism is needed

He wasn't a great player, agreed. Certainly better than average though.

For an EPL player? He was run of the mill really but that standard is very high and people seem to take it as a slight when it is not

We all know your tricks - say something with the intended purpose of riling someone up, get called out, play the "differing opinion" card and result to petty insults. It's nothing new and it's as sad an act as it's always been.

Petrov's retired in incredibly sad circumstances and people are commenting on what a shame it is considering the influence he had at Celtic and Aston Villa. No one's claiming he one of the best, and you know that - you only made that comment to provoke a reaction, not contribute intelligently to a debate.

Stan Petrov was a very competent footballer.

No argument about that.

Aston Villa have missed him this season more than ever given the inexperience in their side.

Aston Villa are inducting him to their hall of fame, I can't help but feel a hall of fame should be for the very best players and managers a club has ever had, Petrov was good but he never really scored any important goals or won any silverware. perhaps retiring the #19 shirt and making a donation to his leukaemia charity would be a more fitting tribute rather than cheapening the HOF at the club.

I'm not going to interject with the politics or the reputation of the player. I just think it's a shame his career has been ended in such tragic and unfortunate circumstances, and I wish him all the best with what he does next.

Can't believe it, but I'm agreeing with TS.

I cannot believe people are saying he should not be in a HoF. He beat fucking leukemia - if that isn't a reason I dunno what is. "There is Stan Petrov, former captain and he beat a form of cancer" how many people can say that?

He played with Aston Villa with distinction, made a lot of appearances, was well regarded by the fans and in the Premiership in general. He might not have become the Stoichkov-lite he was supposed to, but he was a fine player and captain of his country. I don't even think his ability as a player should be brought into this debate - at a moment like this, is his ability really relevant?

Agree KM is being insensitive and trying to do an Adrian Durham, but he does have sympathy for the situation and that's all you can ask for from a decent person. May not have rated Stan but rates him as a person.

However, the thick Dortmund giving it the 'tin pot league' stuff - so fuck? One of the big reasons you have a European Cup played the majority of his career in a 'tin pot league' you elitist fuck. Think before you speak - you embarrass yourself on a regular basis and my toes are beginning to stay curled after surveying your thick-as-shit opinions.

The man should be respected because he done something very few people get the chance to, he fought off a form of cancer. That's more impressive than anything else.

Off to my crypt again for a few months - hope you are all well!

He said he loved them. But I really wouldn't read too much into that, I mean just look at the Evertonian's that have played for Liverpool in the decades gone by.

I still think Spurs are more likely though, not only are they more in need, they're more likely to want to give him a chance. You sense Wenger would rather look abroad.

Also, didn't Arshavin claim at one point or another to have supported virtually every team in Europe?
