Guest Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 Richard Dryden to Southampton in the mid 1990s? As direct transfers go. Luke Wiltshire to whichever Dutch club he went to after WC 2006. Aside from that Rob Newman straight into the Norwich Uefa Cup Madness probably takes it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarksRobin Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 Magnussen went on to play in the Champions League the season after we sold him. I think he played vs Real Madrid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re wasting your time MOP , you start a thread about soccer hard men , end up talking about Tammy Abraham’s hair after trawling through a myriad of fish puns . Our threads are like our children, we bring them into the world and set them off on the right path but we don’t own them. They are living things of beauty.

Chivs Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 I'm going with Andy Cole. And no, I haven't read the OP as there seems to be some confusion about it. I'm answering the question "Which of our players was purchased from the highest placed football club?" Hence, Andy Cole and Arsenal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

italian dave Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 18 hours ago, LondonBristolian said: The original post sets some odd parameters which I am just going to ignore. Simple fact is we have never sold a player who has gone on to reach a higher level in the game than Andy Cole. Not really relevant that we sold him on to Newcastle and then he moved from there to Man Utd. I cannot think of a player who has played for us permanently who has won premier league and champions league medals so he has to be the answer to the question in the title of this thread. They may be odd, but they're the parameters; stick to the question. Just because you don't want to spend 24 hours trawling the internet.......

WhistleHappy Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 Ok, well, we exactly didn't sell the wonderful legend that wasTony Rougier we released him after the play offs vs Brighton. It appears he went abroad for a while after that, played a bit in the US before eventually returning to Trinidad and becoming a coach. ( no, not a tourist bus btw if that's what you're thinking ) The thing that's bugging me is I cant think for the life of me whatever happened to his brother Anthony, did we sell him, or release him like Tony ? Anyone know what became of him after leaving The Gate ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ska Junkie Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 Judging by the OP's question, is has to be Magners doesn't it? As for what players went on to do, it would be Mr Cole but that's not what the OP asked so I'll plump for Magners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
