Spot on mate he really was the last piece of the jigsaw. What a let down he was.

Blades fans I know still dig me for that one.

How does that work?

If he'd signed for Utd, he'd walk into their best ever XI. So how can they take the wee wee out of us just because he wasn't as good as the rest of our team at that time (all of whom would also walk it into their best ever XI had they had the fortune to ever see players of that stature).

A player of his ability on our left wing today is exactly what we need. Unfortunately we're nowhere near that level yet.

Andy Sinton. The final piece in the jigsaw. We needed a proper left winger, so we went out and bought the best in the country , England international costing �2.75M. Everybody seemed to agree he was the best around and we got him.

He was ****!

Absolutely this.

Pity is we let John Harkes go who was a better team player and more productive, if not a left winger.

We also tried to force Sinton into our way of playing expecting him to beat his man and deliver a quality cross from the touch line, whereas at QPR who were more counter attacking, he tended to play on the shoulder of the full back and get in behind direct on goal. Remember a game against a depleted Chelsea team where he had about 30 chances to cross, made 5 crosses and only got one above knee height!
