Robbie Savage was released from the Manchester United academy as "not good enough" and joined crewe

Djordic was bought from IF Brommapojkarna

Ben Collett was released from Man Utd again noit being good enough

Michael Stewart was poached from Rangers

Jonathan Greening was bought from York and had already made his league debut
