The latter is one will go down as a really important part of our history.

I’m thinking £1m, but I know I’m getting him mixed up with Holgate and/or Branthwaite

£3 mil.

Bargain really. Especially when you take into consideration the profit made.

Tim Howard must have cost just a few million.

Distin was around £5m and was largely a pretty solid purchase.

Mikel Arteta cost very little. Initially brought in on loan with an option to buy IIRC. He had been struggling in Spain, came here and the rest is history.

Even Marcis Bent came in for pennies and scored some important goals for us.

@Toddacelli a special mention for Big Dennis Straqualursi.
