I remember us signing him for what was a massive amount of money in 1985 - £250k. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/fo...pensive-teenager-signing-Liverpool-250-000-19 Just shows how any footballer whether a star like Messi or a donkey is omly one injury away from the end of their career. Today Wayne would probably have played again after hi cruciate ligament injury, but in those days it was a career ender. RIP
Remember the fee. CL was a career ender in those days. Terrible to die so young. Thoughts with his family. RIP.
Record signing (for a teenager) when he came from Oldham who we are playing in the FA Cup (again!) on 5th Jan.
