Our biggest signing?

[FTY]

Alan Ball, defo. Like signing Iniesta in the summer of 2010.

Surprised that no one has mentioned Ferguson yet.

For me our biggest signing was Cottee, cecording signing and all

 

[toffeesnuggs]

Lineker.

He joined us when we'd just won the league, he was top scorer the year before and only 24 yrs old.

 

[Milk]

I'll throw Ian Snodin in to the mix. At the time, he was well rated

 

[Elong]

Errm, Dixie Dean anyone?

 

[ijjysmith]

Struggling to pick my answer here.

Struggling to pick my answer here.

Ball, latchford, lineker, cottee, kanchelskis mate in that order

Some worked out better than others but their the 4 that stand out for me like

 

[BlueLlama]

Bob Latchford
Kanchelskis
Dunc

 

[Professor Toffee]

Latchford for me, Kanchelskis too, I remember Dave Watson was a big and important signing!

 

[DonOne]

Got to be Martinez for me, if you could buy managers he'd be 50 mil, like falcao, with mourinho and guardiola being the ronaldo and messi. So we got falcao woohoo. Samways and ward, Mitch follow.

 

[davids]

Fred Pickering 56 goals in 97 games.

 

[Fresh Prince of Belle Val]

Paul Gascoigne, Mark Hughes, David Ginola, John Collins. AVM. Drenthe. Martyn. Proven players but sometimes its best to get them before they peak.

 

[WA Toffee]

Andy Van der Meyde.
Obviously didn't work out the way we hoped, but he was a genuine world star when we signed him

 

[BigDunc'sFod]

I think Kanchelskis was the biggest signing in terms of quality and signal. A truly top class player from a big club. If we did the same type of deal today, it would be like signing Walcott or someone like that

It would be more like signing a Mata at a dizzy to be honest

Alan Ball

This, all day long.
