Pelé ( the nickname for Pedro Miguel Cardoso Monteiro) joined Southampton from Portuguese side Belenenses at the start of the 2006\/7 season.<\/P>

West Ham and Portsmouth had previously shown an interest but having tried to sign him in the January 2006 transfer window Burley was determined to get his man. <\/P>

When he eventually arrived on the south coast on July 19th 2006 he became an instant hit.<\/P>

He made his debut in the pre-season friendly at Cheltenham in July 2006 and became a regular in Burley’s first XI from the start of the season, making his league debut at Derby – sadly squandering the fans chance to sing “We’ve still got Pele on the bench!”<\/P>

A composed central defender who can also do a job at left-back he passes the ball well from defence and also has the strength and determination required for the English game.
