Best and worst foreign signings

[Processed Beats]

Fjortoft was before my time, so of the johnny foreigners I've seen it would have to Commingues or Brezovan (pre-injury).

Worst is definitely Dossevi.

[WR5]

Best Fjortofft

Worst  Sabin

[luckyluke699]

Fjortoft .

Pericard.

nailed it for me.

[cheltred69]

Looking back over the years, I'd categorise them as:

Good
Fjortoft; Invincibile; Nijholt; Mitchell; Fallon; Lescinel; Brezovan; vd Linden; Miglioranzi; Commingues; Talia (possibly); DeVita (maybe)

Not Sure!
Cuervo; Darras; Lorenzo; Griemink; Zaaboub; Risser
(some of these here because I didn't really see enough of them to judge)

Poor
Dossevi; Sabin; Pericard; Shakes; Kanyuka; Nalis

Thankfully most of the rubbish over the years have made less than 20 appearances (but still too many in a number of cases)

[Saxondale]

I dont know why but I really liked Nestor Lorenzo.  And like many others Dossevi has been one of the biggest disasters in my mind.  More the expectation than anything else.  Thought he was going to tear the league a new one, but disappeared up his own one.

[Peacocks-Lucky-Coat]

I always thought Nalis was pretty decent.

[Batch]

Nalis was pretty decent, unfortunately it was a few years before we got him. His legs had gone.

[Arch Stanton]

Best - Fjortoft
Worst -Marko Tuomela (well, he definitely didn't play 20 games, probably only 20 minutes), Adrian Bakalli? Although he only managed one game, and what a game that was, yet another tactical masterstroke by Mr Andy King.

So to play by the rules - Sabin (Made Dossevi look like Maradona) he had speed and absolutely nothing else. He then turned out for the yellow filth which makes him worse than Hitler.

[Madrobin]

Best: Jan, naturally.

Worst: So many possibilities. I'd have to go for Griemink, if pushed.

Did Cuervo play more than 20 games?

[Nijholts Nuts]

Best: Jan the Man

Worst: Alan O'Brien / Drossevi / Pericard

[radicalbyte]

Does Fitzroy Simpson count as foreign?

Chris Hay after his first 13 games was the worst I've seen.  Though that's probably because of the unrealistic expectations after THAT start 

[Nomoreheroes]

Roy Wegerle should count as one of the best.

[kaufman]

I know he did not make 20 appearances but as a kid I'll always remember Roy Wegerle coming to us on loan and him being a player like i've never seen before in a swindon shirt, I think that's why macari never took up the option of buying him as he seemed a luxury player at the time.
few years later and he goes for a million pounds.

Fjortoft without doubt the best we've had.

Worst I'd have John Buttigieg if i could but as it's 20 appearances I'll take Darren Bullock, i know he's English but judging how he went about playing football it seemed very foreign to him, almost alien.

Ricky Shakes probably a contender,  I missed a lot of the the 'todd' and 'Quinn' reign, it appears i didn't miss much

So to play by the rules - Sabin (Made Dossevi look like Maradona) he had speed and absolutely nothing else. He then turned out for the yellow filth which makes him worse than Hitler.

See, I've always quite liked Sabin for his Oxford spell in which he successfully led them out of the League.

[jutty274]

Best: Jan, naturally.

Worst: So many possibilities. I'd have to go for Griemink, if pushed.

Did Cuervo play more than 20 games?

Surely Talia would have been worse, Griemink did actually have a few good games where as Talia had a few good minutes.
