Not including folks who had won the old first division, and Gascoigne and Waddle and the other pre-premierleague stars, or Gullit and Shevchenko or Hierro or Klinsmann who were really all-time greats but were far from their peak when they came to the premier league. Neither including Mancity’s new recruits.
