Nico clausen. iirc got in the summer before Clive Allen did his 49 goal season. Talk about timing. But he would have been half decent I think.
 
And cost us a goal in a cup final.
I’m absolutely sure that he wouldn’t have gone clattering in the way he did had he been staying. He loved Spurs a lot and us fans. He so wanted to go off in a blaze of glory by winning the cup on the pitch with us, rather than sitting in a hospital bed in pieces. How badly it turned out for him that day. For all his faults I will always have a soft spot for the crazy bastard and wonder how things may have turned out had we not been in a situation where we had to sell him. The bloke was a bloody genius on the pitch.
 
Foyth. IMO he would have been a great RB and a "defensive RWB" as contradictory as that sounds.

His only problem was taking the liberty while on the ball, at Villareal he doesn't seem to do that much. He was much more impressive than Lo Celso against Juve and Bayern. Coeman probably still having nightmares.
 
Not at all a flop but Gazza would have been a world beater for years had we not had to sell him and had he not tried to go out in a blaze of glory for us that left him partially crippled and mentally scarred.
 
And he has always said he was happiest when with us.
That for me is the saddest part of all. A wonderful footballer who was getting better and better. Sold when he would have been happy to stay, trying too damn hard to make sure his last game would end gloriously for him and us fans. Whilst he went on to have a great career, I think things would have been better for him had he been given longer at THFC
