Best City Cameos

[Norbiton]

Yes, that's the one. I think his parents came over to watch him play in the next game but we signed Fulop on loan and Nielsen never played again.

Who was that keeper who came on at Arsenal when Given was injured? From the Faroe Islands or somewhere unlikely? Anyway, he didn't let anything past him, think it was the only time he played. Not quite in the Glauber Berti class, but close.

Gunnar Nielsen?

Ian Scott scored a few early in his first team career and looked promising before drifting out of favour and heading to Stoke.
McManaman's cameo was very brief and like Frontzeck's before lasted one game.

 

[Asa's Heart]

Another myth
He had a half decent game vs the rags and in the others he was very mediocre, culminating in him having an absolute shocker at Leeds and getting sent off

The whole Van Buyten being brilliant for us is purely because we beat the rags

I don't know who you were watching. This fella was class and stood out like a shining light.....

George Weah :) Thought his debut in a friendly at Edgeley park was the highlight

Pizzaro.

We had a good run of over the hill cameos....Vieira...Pizarro...Lamps.

Should have kept him for another season. He was unreal for Fiorentina for a couple of years after he left.

 

[Scaring Europe to Death]

Mpenza must be in with a shout.

 

[petrusha]

Ali B in the 2001/2 promotion season was more or less an 8-month cameo, really. After promotion, he didn't feature that much as he didn't have the legs to play full games in the top flight. He had some memorable moments, but largely as an impact sub.

His highlight was taking irwin out at his testimonial
