and as a kid: Freddie Mwilla, Emmant Kapengwe and of course Oscar Arce.

And you thought Balaban was a mistake...

Stan Collymore, then Dean Saunders. We have very rarely signed a big star from a bigger club.

Was pretty pleased when we got Delph. Still am. He'll be superb so long as he refuses to play right back.

I was well pleased when we signed Cuellar. Thought he was awesome for Rangers in their Uefa Cup run.

Merson. Also Six, and  it looked so promising after his debut.

Sasa Curcic.  When I moved up to the NW, the firm I worked for got free tickets to watch Bolton, so I saw a fair bit of him the season before he signed for us.  He was brilliant for them.

Milan Baros

Ripped the teams the Czech Republic played in Euro 2004 apart and was a genuinely exciting striker at that point. Even scored on his Villa debut.

But the one I got most excited about was Stan Collymore.
