    With the gossip around the R's possibly looking at Dani Garcia, I was thinking how many overseas players have really performed in hoops?

    Ale Faurlin - Gives his all when he plays
    Adel Taarabt - sporadically, when he felt like it
    Loic Remy - For the brief period he was with us
    Leroy Fer - Was starting to show his worth playing in the right position
    Apart from those above, I can't think of any others.
    I've not included the many Irishmen (although perhaps I should) who have performed heroically for us over the years.

    Danny ****tu - Nigeria - not the fastest around, but a man-mountain!

    Akos Buzsaky - Hungary - always liked him, though not the most skilled seemed to put in a shift

    How can anybody forget the legendary duo brought in during our Championship canpaign? Oguchi Onyewu and Javier Chevanton.

    Antti Heinola and Sampsa Timoska. Superduo from Finland, the country who has raised one "Litmanen" every hundred year

    Gino Padula...loved him. Kaspars Gorkss was alright. Ludek Miklosko was great in goal towards the twilight of his career.

    Also liked Taiwo - we should've signed him instead of letting him go back to Milan at end of his loan - far better than Diakite and M'bia

    Daniel Pajero - got from Real Madrid at 18 but he couldn't settle. However always thought he had a good touch and a good passer of the ball
    And why has no one mentioned Ned Zelic - the only Aussie that couldn't settle in the UK!!!!!!!
