Who he?

I have never heard of him.

Dud he ever play in the first team, Groucho and if so approximately when?

Played one game in europe. 9 games as an unused sub.

We let him go as a kid, he hung about sampdoria's reserve team in serie b a couple of years. Then about 2-3 years after he left us, he started playing reguarly, made it big and got picked in the german world cup team.

One our coaches called wrong, you'd think, Though whether he'd have been patient enough to wait 3 years for first team action here is another matter.

Oh how we could do with him now. Imagine him and Stones.
 

Mitch Ward, Marc Hottiger, Alec Cleland.

Seem to remember the latter getting sent off at Villa for two yellow cards in the first 15 min! Lost 3-0 I think.

Wish I could erase memories like that.

Stefan Rehn and Peter Degn. Strange Scandanavians...
 
Mark Hughes

I wish I forgot he played for us.

I think even the term 'played' can be used quite liberally!

Stefan Rehn.

He was highly rated when he signed for us. Seemed homesick more than anything. Returned to Sweden with IFK Goteborg and was a very influential playmaker. Won the league 5 times with them. Some might say not a big deal given it was the Swedish league however he showed his form when he played for Sweden also.
