    Dublin was supposedly brought in to add stability and cover and I think he did that and more. He seemed to have a good rapport with the younger players and WGS allowed him to help organize on the field. Nobody who sat next to me could really fault the guy.

    Aye, was at that game. He was a good finisher but hopeless with the ball at this feet. Remember I think it was Riseths 1st game for Celtic and he played this great ball over the defence and Brattbakk scored 1st touch, that was what he was good at.
    Think he's actually an pilot now.haha

    Biggest one for me was Juninho came with a big reputation and did nothing at all. Also Gravesen he cost us the 3-2 defeat against Man Utd at Old Trafford gave the ball away twice for their goals. As for Ki the jury is still out, will give him time then decide.

    Scheidt

    .................and some swedish guy from Feyenoord. Had a decent reputation, scored in 3rd place play off at world cup 94. He was a forward i think, just can't remember his name. Anyway...reputation was decent, he came and we eventually managed to send him to Barcelona, I think.......dunno if he ever achieved anything else in the game :icon_mrgreen::icon_mrgreen::icon_mrgreen::icon_mrgreen::icon_mrgreen:

    Scheidt didn't really come with a good reputation, it was more media hype and the price tag in my opinion.

    Reputation wise I'd go for Roy Keane, Graveson and Riordan.

    Brazilian Internationalist mate! :56: Looked really good on paper, though apparently it was a con (Giving awful Brazilians caps) so they had more chance of getting sold for more money, it sadly worked. Barnes didn't even watch any videos of him. :rolleyes:
