Can someone please provide me with a comprehensive list of who we've actually singed?

Do I strike you as someone who would be so unequivocal if I wasn't 100% sure I was right?

I mean, look at my Brexit predicti....oh.

If he's a great success, I suppose you can always claim you were deliberately reverse-jinxing him.

He strikes me as the kind of player who would have been a world beater about 60 years ago, i.e. when football was still sh*t.

I give you the obscenely overrated George Best.

I've no idea how good or bad Best was, since I never saw him play. Some people at the time seemed to think he was quite good, though.

The first footballer from a bygone era who would still stand out today was Maradona

That's not what I said though, is it.

Fair enough. So are you saying that if you simply plucked, say, Cruyff out of the early 70s and simply transplanted him as he was then into a modern side, he would struggle to stand out?
