John Gregory tweeted a photograph of his match programme from when he went to see Juan Pablo Angel play before he signed him. Saviola and Aimar both in the starting line up with big asterisks beside each of them. Few other familiar names too - maybe Cambiasso. He’d written notes beside each of them. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love it! The last forward we signed from River Plate didn’t turn out too bad. Get him signed up Johan! I wanna see that fantastic but disturbing smile.

Yeah JG said he wanted to sign Aimar aswell but was way out of budget, think he moved that January to Valencia for about 15m. I think the orignial plan was to sign Serna aswell who was Colombian midfielder at Boca Juniors to help Angel settle but that didn't happen (probably work permit). Think we were also linked to Mario Yepes who was at River at the time but if we'd signed him Mellberg probably wouldn't have signed in the end. Always good to get a nice core of South Americans in given it's generally been the continent that's produced the best players down the years and there's some really good value still if you scout well enough.
