the one that got away

[growler]

I was just thinking, it gets a bit annoying when you find a player, don't sign him, and then he goes all super star on you. I was thinking Alves and what we could have had for a couple of extra mil...

 

throw in pennant when he left notts county, Duff who we let go as a kid, I was wondering if there were any others?

 

Of course there's the Zidane when we didn't make the CL story too...

I know I'm going back a bit here, but weren't we supposed to buy Boniek? I always thought he was a world class player. He went to Italy and played for a few of the bigger clubs there

[downunder]

I'm pretty sure we almost bought Cruyff for a million many years ago! At the same time Francis went to Forest for the same price.

 

Other than that Samba....

I always thought he would have been great at Anfield.

We had Jap Staam on trial too. Uncle Roy thought he'd never be able to cope with the premiership.

 

Kenny Dalglish on trial but was rejected.

Thought that was more a case of home sickness and Shanks realising that he would have problems adjusting to life out of Glasgow as a young age?
