Southall
Coleman Jags Watson Baines
Kanchelskis Gravesen Arteta Pienaar

it's quite depressing when you look at the players we've had over the last 26 years and how few players we've had have been standout brilliant.

Rooney (first time round) and Lukaku are the only truly top quality players we've had in that time. The others mentioned here were good in fits and starts but nowhere near the level of those two.

And I think it's instructive that none were bought by Moyes in all his time here. He wouldn't know a great player if he fell over one and made sure the players he did dither over were the type who'd accept his dominance, which is generally a recipe to bring in dullard players..
