Numerous mentions of the top class side that Southampton would have now if they could have kept there top players, VVD, Mane, Bale, Shaw etc but that Southampton side at the beginning of the 90s - Shearer, Le Tissier, Ruddock, Flowers, Rideout, Wallace and Horne - with the exception of Le Tissier all went on and won trophies elsewhere.
The top flight before carpet pitches and tattoos! Today's players would be feigning injury to get taken off if they had to play on a pitch like that while trying to deal with Keown, Watson, Ruddock et al. Happy days.
Loved that Everton goalie kit :)

Was Mike Milligan Barry Horne's twin brother? They look so alike!
This shows all the top sides played the long ball game but all held themselves out as playing a passing game.
All still often do it in modern era
Should have bid for Shearer straight afterwards 🙄
Timmy had a mare that day
