I’ve posted this before but I love it so here it is again. Keegan on signing “trouble maker” Asprilla

 

"I've seen what other people say about him. They think he's a good player and warn about his temperament. But if I had signed players on the basis of what I heard about them, David Ginola and Andy Cole wouldn't have come to this club and the fans would have missed some great players."

"You've got to have the courage to look at what you need and get the very best available. That's what I did. What other people think of players has never worried me. You listen to the talk, but you've got to make your own decisions. It's on the field where it really matters."

"The crowd will love him. He's a match-winner, he's a goalscorer and he's an entertainer. He's a real Newcastle player - quick, works hard and has flair. Faustino's the sort of player that Geordies love. The players they talk about are just like him. They should sit back and watch this fellow."

I really, really love how much of an enigma he is both on and off the pitch. Nobody even knowing if he has retired is so him.

Not even joking.

I tally forgot that he had the misfortune to play under that fat-headed Corbridge tosser!

 

I'm glad he didn't fully realise his potential as we'd have never had the pleasure of seeing him play for us!
