    Yep, he had a great World Cup & Arsenal doubled the transfer fee & salary.
    & they were a more attractive club than us..:(

    ... and we got Oulare instead.
    We dodged a bullet with that there Ljungberg and Haaland and Van Nistelroy and Henry and Shearer. Bloody time wasters.

    There was Kevin Phillips who came close to signing for us in 2008, but opted to move to Birmingham so he didn't have to uproot his family. He fired them into the Premier League that season with a goal ratio of almost one in two.

    Thought it was Simon Davey who said he wasn't worth the 500k transfer fee?

    The World Cup wasn't around the time we were after him. We would have signed him summer of 1997.

    That's not how I remember it. We'd agreed everything for Freddie in the September of 1998, when John Hendrie was manager. Sweden played England in a Euros qualifying match & Freddie had a great game. Arsenal then gazumped us.
