Roy Wegerle should count as one of the best.
Forgot about him, he was fuckin brilliant, worst one has to be either Sabin or Zaaboub. Nestor Lorenzo was a typical South American, if he couldn't get the ball he was taking you out! |

Did Cuervo play more than 20 games?
18 starts + 20 from the bench - cannot believe it was that few, but think his appearances coincided with the short period that I was local enough to get to home games regularly! |

I fucking loved Eric Sabin... Don't forget he scored the winner versus Mansfield to end a 7 game losing streak under Andy King.
For me, Danny Invincibile was the best. Worst, with the 20 game qualifier, would have to be Dossevi - mainly as he was so bloody frustrating to watch.

Don't think I ever had the plasure of watching sabin play, did his game extend beyond running towards the area really fast and then falling over?
Do I recall he won a penalty in something like each of his first 4 games?

I don't know how many times he filled the Player part of the Player Manager slot but Ossie wa a bit useful.
Worst?
Dossevi gets my vote though Brian Kilkline was foreign in that he comes from a differnet planet.

After he broke his leg in the reserves (against Millwall?) he was awful. Which was a shame, as before then he looked a player. |

i think ill go with mr invincible for my favourite player, that shined volley to keep us up.  felt so many emotions that day. Dossevi without a doubt has to be not just the worst foreign singing but the worst ever in all football. The guy was just fucking hopeless. i have never seen someone run like they were wearing the boots from a deep-sea diver. i cannot believe how often i kept turning up to watch that spaz  |

Does Fitzroy Simpson count as foreign?
Yes. He was born in Bradford on Avon and they're all on a different planet over there. Nestor Lorenzo was the best for me. World Cup finalist, always looked like he was about to maim someone and be sent off. Opposing strikers seemed to sense it too. |

Now Pericard, he couldnt move... |

The one thing you cant accuse Dossevi of not doing is running, that's all he had going for him.
He tried bless him, i find it hard to hate anyone like him who is dogshit but puts 100% in all the time

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.
Macari did want to sign him, but Wegerle had better offers. |
