Were we ever linked with Bastian Schweinsteiger? I would love to see him at the bridge one day.
Other than that and i guess it's unanimous, it has to be Aguero. It pains to see his stuff at city and realise what could have been! I remember we had a game with atletico when he was playing for them and he scored 2 goals and it was always thought he will end up here.

Agüero of course top of the list. What a beast he is and how good he and Drogba would have complemented each other. If we had signed him instead of Torres we probably would have won the league in 2011 and Carlo would not have been dismissed.

Honourable mentions: Alexis Sanchez, Di maria, Walcott, Micah Richards, Vincent Kompany, Daniele de Rossi, Franck Ribery, Yaya Toure, Milos Krasic, Adriano, Marton Fülöp (was free, his name is epic and we could have used a decent 2nd goalie)

Aguero for obvious reasons.

Silva as well. It would be amazing to see Silva and Mata work their magic here, but maybe Mata might not have turned into the player he is now if it worked out that way.

Cabaye definitely. Can only imagine him in the pivot now. And at £6m? Daylight robbery.

Now for my love affair with Dortmund. Marco Reus and Subotic/Hummels. Beasts. Enough said.

Just thought of a good one - Stevie G.

That looked like a done deal and then all of a sudden Rick Parry is on SSN saying he's staying. The thought of pissing off every scouser was delicious and seeing a few of them burning shirts when they thought he was off was hilarious. From a footballing side it would've been interesting to see if Mourinho could've got Lamps and Gerrard playing together in the same team, but ultimately we got Essien instead and Gerrard still hasn't won a title.

This season it's been annoying to see Spurs get Vertonghen and in particular Dembele. He could've been great for us in the midfield but it wasn't to be. I can't remember if we were properly linked with Kompany either (might be thinking of Vanden Borre), but he's the one player I would truly love for us to have gotten. Intelligent, aggressive and a proper centre-back.

The tales that were told about that non-transfer were salatious, such as Dalglish having to visit scouse criminals houses and asking them not to pay Stevie and his family a 'visit'.

And the 'Pancake' rumours. There's a good story to be told once everyone's had a few years in retirement - the Scouse Goodfellas.

There was supposedly a CCTV video of her 'chomping' on a 'Pancake', Stevie also gets a ballad sung to him, mostly by the Evertonians, relating to the parenthood of one of his children.

She'd also allegedly had an affair with an ex-Forest and Celtic player as well.
