Gary Lineker - Leicester's most successful crisp merchant moved to Barcelona in 1986, having dazzled the world with his goal-poaching instincts at the World Cup in Mexico. Despite being played out of position by that Dutch c**t Cruyff, Lineker still banged in 42 goals in 103 appearances, which hardly paints him as a Barca flop. After a successful spell at Tottenham, Lineker ended his playing career in Japan, with Grampus Eight.
