Well they'd be better than Tonev and more consistent than N'Zogbia

Tonev was a dream player for all of those fans who get excited by being able to touch the match ball when it has been fired into the crowd. When I had a season ticket in the lower North stand in some of the Tonev games I had more touches of the ball than Tonev himself.

I used to sit a bit above the goal when we had Hitzlsperger. Was terrifying when he was practicing his shots before the game.

Every time I drove over spaghetti junction I was terrified that Savo was having shooting practice towards the Holte End goal.

Savo was a quality player, his goal record stands up against most players. His link up play with Yorke was brilliant. One of my favourite moments was Savo's late winner against Bordeaux, wild scenes in the Lower Trinity that night.

Agreed, Savo was ace, and he didn't do too badly when he left either, Euro's golden boot and having Roma shell out £17m when that was a shit tonne of cash, more than Yorke went to Man Utd for perspective.

It was Parma, not Roma.

That link also states we paid Partizan £1.3m when it was actually £3.5m.

Schoolboy error.
