Morrison?! Are you fucking drunk?

[adje]

....Friday isn't it?

[adje]

......besides,Chang started it by putting Sheehan in!

[tans]

McNamee! Youve lost it Adje

[Dr Pierre Chang]

Haha in fairness to Sheehan he was very good in 09/10. Morrison always looked dodgy to me.

Forgot about Miglioranzi, he would be in my side instead of Igoe - centre midfield and defence was an area short on quality options.

No Caddis on the basis that he only proved himself at League 2 level for us.

[adje]

Ha-loved MacNamee!Knew I'd be in a minority of one

[Abrahammer]

We have definately had a lot more quality at RB than LB during the last 10 years, no one really stands out at LB

[adje]

McNamee! Youve lost it Adje

weren't allowed to have Danny Ward!

[Dr Pierre Chang]

Ward could have been in there. He was here for a good half season at least wasn't he? I only said about short term loans to avoid James Milner being in every side.

Good shout, got me thinking this so here goes...

Foderingham - best keeper since Digby for me. Imperious.

Caddis - finest RB I've seen since Kerslake, gutted and perplexed when he left the club.
Greer - True leader of men at the back.
Ifil - The BEAST was quality for us. 200+ appearances for the mighty reds? come on.
Nicholas - Honestly can't find a better more consistent LB over last 10yrs. clearly slim pickings for the no.3 jersey!

Igoe - what a player, on his day really was untouchable, will never forget his debut pre season thought we'd signed the blond maradona
Miglioranzi - classy, silky skills, unlocked defenses, a joy to watch was Migz.
McCormack - What a fucking player. Earns his spot in any team.
D, D Ward - power, pace, skill, excitement, creative, goals. Complete package.

Parkin - First name on the teamsheet. Old School forward with sublime positioning and an eye for a finish out of nothing.
Austin - probably most natural finisher I've seen at the CG in 25 years. He really was THAT good.


Bench:
Smith (G) - a more than worthy no.2 between the sticks
Cox - only two slots up top but what a player to come off the bench...
Gurney - fucking solid bastard with a demon free kick on him. never forget what nearly was, that night at elland road...
Howard - shone in a truly decent team but couldn't quite find him a first XI place
Heywood - Solid cover at CB
Peacock - consistent performer, always gave 100% and some vital goals
Ferry - Just makes it in but more to come from the wee man
