Liverpool signed a very young messi on my fm save and I managed to loan him for a season. Had such a good season we were one of his favourite clubs! If only...
I said Ashton over Marcus Bent, and a couple of others, but then thought we should go for Malcolm Christie when he left Derby, and thought Carlton Cole and Andy Gray would be very good signings, so swings and roundabouts!

I am sure we must have been looking at Ashton when he was at Crewe, what an excellent target man he was, tragic his career was cut short.
Remember seeing a young Craig Bellamy as a midfielder against us (Norwich i think). No choir boy, but wished we'd signed him before he'd built his reputation (em!). One player really excited about signing.....Andy Jones from Port Vale..........Oh dear!
Mattiue Flamini who went to Arsenal - if only Curbs had made the effort !! and also i agree with Sidwell !! - also still think we will see Bobby Zamora here in some form in the next 2/3 seasons.

Yeah, I'd forgotten how young he was - only 29 now and he hasn't played in 4 years, shame for the guy.
I got exceptionally drunk at my mates 21st (1996ish) got home and apparently tried to convince my dad and brother that John Aldridge was the man to fire us to greatness

Drunken logic is the best, i had a similar experiance explaining to a mate that the signing of JFH would fire us back to challenging for a euro place.
Still trying to work out how that all went wrong. :-)
I banged on about Tim Cahill whilst he was at Millwall but I don't think his missus was too keen on him joining us and wanted a move away from the area for maritial reasons
My stepdad used to act for him and was gently nudging him to sign for charlton and not everton always rated him even @scumwall

would've loved to have got Kezman, reckon he'd have been a hit with Rommedahl

The Good: Cahill, Dean Ashton
The Bad: Eastwood
The Ugly: Jeffers..
