Our second Dutch sining Marc Overmars, joined from Ajax for around £5million in the summer of 1997. Everyone knew of his amazing speed, but some were worried as he had only just recovered form a serious injury. Indeed, Newcastle turned down the chance of signing him for the very reason of his injury(i bet they regret it now!).
After a slow star Marc burst on to the Premiership scene. He was our second top scorer last season, and the goals he did score showed amazing skill and pace.
Overmars, like most wingers, drifts in and out of games. But when he attacks defenders with his pace he rarely loses out.
