In the dark old days when the club actually went and bought a player not like how it goes now, look at him, think about it, make a bid then wait, think about it again then go back off an even lower bid, wait a few days then look stunned when club turn your bid down and player goes to another club.Crazy that he was the last player we signed
Great player, manager and man.
We have been searching
for his like ever since
A destroyer who can pass.
Still looking I'm afraid.
We've had destroyers who can't pass
Dembele, Wanyama, Make your own list
and passers who can't destroy
Hoddle and Eriksen for a start.
perhaps we should refine our search
and think in terms of pairs or trebles,
though Big Dave played with Danny Blanchflower
which certainly helped.
