Players you had forgotten existed

I serioulsy couldn't have told you that Timo Werner is at Tottenham hadn't his thread been bumped.
 
Off today and having a bit of lazy hour. Watching Utd v Newcastle mutv for 1999/00 season.

Newcastle had Steve Clarke as interim manager.

Tommy Wright in goal - not a clue.

Warren Barton - apparently was the most expensive defender in England at one point.

Goma, Dabizas, Solano, Rob Lee.

Jeff Winter was referee.

And they just mentioned that Utd were looking to bring in Taibi a few days after this game.....
 
A recent one, but whenever I see a clip from last year with Sabitzer in it I am confused for a moment.

I reckon next year the same will be true of looking back at this year and seeing Reguilon.

It just doesn't really feel like they were ever United players.

Same with Schweinsteiger, which is a shame because he seems to love the club.
 
Danny Mills

David Nugent. Greatest goal per game ratio player in England NT history.

Danny Cadamarteri.

One of my personal early examples that just because they start games as a teenager doesn’t mean they’re going to be good when they’re older.
Can remember him ‘bursting’ on the scene and he was touted as the next big thing. Within 12 months he was effectively useless
 
Does anyone remember or know of Bajraktarevic??

he was my first unknown signing on CM9798 - the first time I played the game! Me and a mate were in the Belgium league managing anderlecht and Brugge.

Dont believe he was a regen but never heard anything of him.

he was mega for my anderlecht team though
 
So much time has passed I’ve started to combine Milan Baros and Juan Pablo Angel into one player in my mind.
 
Shortest international career of any England goalscorer too, clocking in at 11 minutes.

He may be as forgotten as yesterday's leftovers, but nobody can take that record away from him.
 
David Bentley

It would appear some people have failed to "remember the name"

Yeah, Bentley is obviously wrong.

Yes, ok, calm yourself. He made himself notable as a young, fairly unknown player for saying "Remember the name; David Bentley" and was derided for it. We are in a thread called "Players you had forgotten".
