A poor manager and coach he was/is, but what a bloody good player. One of my early favourites. I remember GT saying that he thought he'd paid £500k too much for him. One of the rare times in his first spell that Taylor was wrong.

His eventual destination was the 1991 equivalent of going to Citeh: all Bari had was money, but no pedigree.

In fact, I wouldn't be at all surprised if he doesn't become the saviour of English football and moves to Italy for £5 million. Take this blank cheque and buy him."
