main point is, we were good enough all round then to give players like that a try and ditch them if they werent up to it, without derailing the success of the team overall. the same is even more important when it comes to fitting youth players into the 1st team.
when were strong enough all round to do that like we used to, well be were we want to be.
the last 15 years is LITTERED with players for whom the expectation - and the difficulty - has proved to much. the very same players, introduced 1 at a time to a winning side, may have been more successful.drunk knows bestComment

Jimmy CarterI think it's a foul, and if the ref gives it. He got to give a penalty. I know it's outside the box, but you see them given that close to the area. So if the ref gives it he's got to give the penalty as it so close to the area. But I think it's a penalty. Robbie Savage 8/11/06

Carter was one of if not the last of King Kenny's bizarre purchases in either 1990 or 1991.
Can't blame this one on Souness...
Though I'm sure there was a game when Souness was in charge where Jimmy came on as a sub, Souness was not at all impressed with what he saw and subbed him!

He bought Redknapp (350k) and Speedie (675k) at the same time"For whom He did foreknow, He also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of His Son"Comment

I was never a fan of Kevin MacDonald*. I don't know why, I just didn't take to him. Of course I may be being unfair since we won the Double with him in the team. IIRC a broken leg kept him out for a year then McMahon had taken his place and he couldn''t get back in. Mind you, the fact that he sunk into relative obscurity afterwards might indicate that he wasn't such a good player.
* Or is it McDonald? I can't remember, sorry if I got it wrong..
Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.
