I'll second Skalak. Loved his promotion antics!
Despite multiple thumbs up, *neather Maupay nor Barco have been seconded yet, at least not last time I looked. Fingers out, fans of flair and shitehousery"
*Gedditt??
Worth also noting, that when we signed Skalak in January 2016, he had won the award for the ‘Player of the (first half of the) Season, in the Czech league and was officially crowned THE WINTER KING.

Robbie Savage ? Arrived in a very lairy car to quite a fanfare and a bit of interest from the media, only to "play" about 4 games during which he was universally crap.

Sticking with Vicente.
This was a lad who was at one time the highest value midfielder in the world, with 38 Spain caps, and considered one of the best left wingers in La Liga history.
He rocked up to play second tier football, attempting to link up with Craig Mackail Smith (bless him), Adam El-Abd and Will Hoskins.
In terms of relative levels, he was the best Albion player in a team I’ve ever seen. And EXTREMELY flair.
It was insane at the time that he agreed to play for us, and remains so to this day.

Diego Arismendi. A Uruguayan international! Numerous red cards, ASBO behaviour, rumoured sex parties, and pretty much zero impact on the first team.
Thunder Bolt
Silly old bat
Seconded. He received two reds as well, one for calling the ref an effing cheat at St Mary's.

Christian Baz and Agustin Battipiedi?
Arrived to much fan fare, flair names, scored one of the worst penalties I've ever seen and then disappeared into obscurity due to being totally sh!te.
At 1:31

Gonzalo Jara Reyes
Pretty sure he was caught driving whilst serving a driving ban during his time with us, and subsequently banned for longer.
UPDATE here it is;
And then these bits of FUN while playing for Chile;

That last bit is brilliant - didn't know he was left out due to being UNDER ARREST at the time.

I saw him in what I think was his only competitive appearance (already 3-0 up against Burton in the League Cup) and I don't remember this aspect. I do however feel like I'm in a special group of about 5-600 Albion fans that actually saw the man play though.
Not just 'caught driving whilst banned' either.
It was 'caught driving whilst banned, on his way to the Amex for a match, and subsequently missing the game', wasn't it?

Seconded!!!
Now someone do the right thing by Colin 'The Hawk' Hawkins and Diego Arismendi!

My issue with these is - I don't know which is which? Could they be entered as a flair duo?
