Overlapping full backs, and steak before matches, according to Ernie Gregory, were West Ham innovations (Gregory credits Ted Fenton, but others reckon Malcolm Allison).

Wasn't Cottee the most expensive player bought by an English side when sold to Everton for over £2m?
Late 80s, the big money was in Italy and English football was worried about all the local talent being hoovered up....
