    Quick Google shows we paid nothing for him, which youngster did we buy for £1m and never made it?

      Can't remember as we've had so many youngsters over the years.

      Is the one you're thinking of under the Rafa era? Barragan?

        Are you thinking of Lauri Dalla Valle we paid £600k for him?
        The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.

          I saw Gary Mackay-Steven's name pop up on the scoresheet this weekend. He seems to have done okay since he left us.

            Paletta? We paid nearly £2m for him!

              Now he was dog****.

              Remember his debut in pre-season and he was a beast. Won everything and Rafa even said something like "He needs to work on his English, but he doesn't need to work on his tackling."

              Played a couple of cup matches and was promptly shipped off out. Swapped him for Insua didn't we?!

                  He has been tearing up the SPL with flicks and tricks.

                    He's meant to be a right player at that level.

                    On my phone so can't check, but didn't he do alright for himself? Serie A I think.

                      Forgot about him! He's done okay.

                      What happened to Paul Anderson after he left Forest? And Whitbread?

                      We should stick in a bid. £5m should do it.

                        Yeah just checked and he's been with Parma since 2010. Spent three seasons with Boca Juniors prior to that.

                          Mackay-Steven is regarded by many as an "old fashioned winger", his main aim is to reach the byeline and cross the ball. Being predominantly left footed, he hugs the touchline and has a unique running style. He has a tremendous dribbling ability and uses many mind boggling tricks to gain advantage of his opponents. Some of his trademark skills he has named are the "Gaz getaway" and "GMS juggle".

                            When we bought him, Vickrey had an article on Palletta. Vickrey said Palletta had good potential but was moving to England too soon. He went back to Boca did decently well and now is with Parma.

                            Insua - Atletico Madrid, Palletta - Parma, Barragan - Valencia. They appear to have done well.

                            Remember Carl Medjani - French U21 defender bought my Houllier. He is now with Monaco in the second division.
