I’m going off piste and saying Sir Bob’s retirement was hard to take for me, I honestly thought We’d fall of the cliff, that’s no slur on Joe Fagan but I was of a age where I recognised a genius at work in Bob, and didn’t see how Joe could hold his own, he did of course bless him, not to the same extent obviously, but Bob going was devastating!!
Player wise probably Rushy to Juve, again, couldn’t see how we could fill that hole, little did we we know eh ?
Same with God, Alonso, Mascherano, Torres obviously but he left under a cloud and I wasn’t too bothered cos he disrespected the club, Similar with Coutinho and that crazy genius that was Suarez,
Carra went a season too early for my liking too, but respected his decision and of course Ste, still miss him yanno’s, funny how a player of his standing can still bring a smile to your coupon even though we have done pretty well without him,
There were plenty before like Aldridge, Digger, Beardsley, Neal, Clem, Keegan, Hansen, Terry Mac, list is fookin endless!
