Glenn Hoddle was widely regarded as one of the most technically gifted players in world football, let alone in England, when he pitched up at Swindon Town in March 1991 as a 33-year-old, replacing his former Tottenham Hotspur team-mate Ossie Ardiles in the dugout.
After four seasons in Monaco, whom he left due to a serious knee injury, Hoddle quickly proved his worth upon his return to English football.
