Juan Pablo Angel, forgettable Villa striker, was also a bit of a dreamboat wasn't he?
No one will ever forget Dean Windass's name.
Remember Newcastle centre-back Nikos Dabizas? On a similar theme; he's Greek, he's great, he'll smash yer dinner plates, Samaras! Samaras!

Today I found myself thinking about Andrew Impey, who was a midfielder if I recall right, in a Leicester team that also had Steve Guppy and Muzzy Izzet. There was also a young, widely-admired striking talent called Emile Heskey leading the line. Many observers watched his progress with a keen eye and thought he was destined for an outstanding career in the game.
Andrew Impey, everybody.

Julian Joachim. Scored a great goal once or twice.
What a fkn great goal. Picked it up in his own half as well . I love an outside of the boot finish.
He didn't turn out to be that special though, did he? Decent but not great player?

Meanwhile at the other end of the pitch, they had an ageing centre half called Gary Pallister marshalling the defence. For a good while I thought of him as that guy who played for Leicester until I found out, much to my surprise that he was a legend at Manchester United and that he formed one half of a famous partnership with Birmingham City's thickset manager Steve Bruce.
Andrew Impey, everybody.
Erm, Pallister never played for Leicester.
Talking of Gabby, I recall Gabby Yorath's dad.
Can't remember his Christian name but he was a footballer who was not as much fun as his daughter.
So I'll talk about her instead.
TV sports presenter Gabby is married to a former Scottish rugby player. A few years ago they played that game, who would you sleep with if you were guaranteed never to be exposed.
The hubby revealed his fantasy before Gabby named an All Black rugby player who was currently playing for New Zealand.
A few months later the happy couple had an early morning spat before leaving for work without talking to each other. At the time the Rugby World Cup was taking place in England and Gabby's job that day was to interview various players for a programme due to be broadcast later that week.
Gabby arrived at a London hotel where the interviews were scheduled to take place and found herself alone in the lift with her All Black fantasy. She took a selfie of her and the rugby star, send it to her husband then switched off her mobile phone for the rest of the day.
Gabby is still married and the All Black never knew what he missed.
Or did he?
Yes, quite. Amended to reflect this fact.
They did have Tim Flowers, who I remember being sensational one year.
Aye, played a good bit for Villa in the 90s. Scored the odd good goal, but not great.
Haha, she's one of my favourites. I thought she was stupidly attractive at one point. I follow her on Instagram and she still looks pretty good for 50 tbf.
She's not risque or provocative in any way though. Just seems like a middle aged mum who loves her adult kids, dresses her ages, speak well, and cares about the issues and causes she's interested in. Not much there to fill the wank bank with.
Nice story to read, thanks!
Christopher Wreh and Luis Boa Morte
Am I missing something or are you talking about Micah Hyde, the defensive back drafted by the Green Bay Packers?
Kim Källström because of his legendary status in Championship manager
I loved that team Fulham put together with Al Fayed's money. Steed Malbranque was one of my favourites. Tricky, skillful little player who I always thought should have got a move further up the league. Saha was someone I really rated as well, so it was annoying when you lot signed him.
And on that note:
Rufus Brevett
Barry Hayles
I don't remember any of these
Miklosko was the West Ham Goalie for most of the 90s.
You're right about Daley. Without looking, I think he won 3 or 4 England caps so he was fairly high profile.
Fan Zhiyi was a Chinese player for Palace. City had Sun Jihai at around the same time.
Hessenthaler was never in the Premier League. Don't know exactly know how I remember him, but he was a bit of a Gillingham stalwart. Played there for many seasons and went on to manage them.
Domi was a French defender who was at Newcastle for a bit around the turn of the century.
Micah Hyde is this guy, played for Watford - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micah_Hyde_(footballer)
Oh. Ok. That’s random.
No way, I've found my holy grail! I was never sure if this existed or if I had some sort of false memory. I've searched for it before with no luck.
Tony Daley modelled shell suits for an obscure clothing brand called Osabisa in home shopping catalogues. I didn't have the one I'm linking to, mine was much louder in oranges, yellows and reds.
Here he is alongside Gary and Michelle Lineker modelling Greyhound ones, whatever they were!

Luciano Becchio, I always forget his name, and then I have Google the Leeds teams between 05 and 09.
Nice one. Yeah actually I remember Domi as well. Don't remember a Chinese player at Palace but I remember Everton accidentally signing two of them when they got a Chinese shirt sponsor.
