If you're going back a bit further you'd have to include Antonio. Got one brilliant season out of him and sold him for 5 times what we paid for him.

I did actually want to include other years too but thought the above was all that was needed. However
Antonio
Assombalonga
David Vaughan (Oh David Vaughaannnnnnnnnnn)
Jack Hobbs
Lichaj
Radi Majewski
Oliveira
Perreira
McCleary
Bouchalakis
Samba Sow
Ameobi
I feel like this part of the list is a lot shorter. It does all make sense really.

Without doubt! Close thread!
Haha, yes agreed. Although this was meant to be players!
We could do managers next...
Soz Wassy, my bad!!
The point of my selection though is every one of the players he inherited had the same skills, capabilities etc but were badly under achieving. SC came in and turned the same bunch of mis-firing underachievers languishing at the bottom of the league, having just broken an over 100 year record for worst start to a season, into a Premier League side in the space of just 8 months

Lewis Grabban for me, leadership, and dependable Mr Consistency.
Signing Grabban was the moment the spine began to firm.

I loved David Vaughan, Antonio is the best at the moment but there's definitely an argument now that McKenna (or even Spence/Surridge) have contributed more in the sense that they actually helped us escape!

Are we talking just perm signings or are we including loans too?
I think it should be just perms and we need separate threads for loans.
