    The buzz bomb, he would have scored more goals than his official tally, refs n linesmen gve him off side for loads of goals, thing is most of the time he was on side, he was that fast.

    Sutton played out of position. But had to have him in the team. He could play any position any how!

    Totally forgot about Collins :52::52:

    Class player..


    My team was so indecisive that I took Agathe out and just looked again and he's playing and on the bench,* he wasn't that good :bbpd:..
    And I know he's not a centre back but mines was an expansive attack minded team,you score 4 we'll score more..
    Easily could have changed aload of players..

    Johnstone and Lennox are the 2 lions I would have loved to have seen live..

    Guy was absolutely rapid on any videos I've seen..

    George Connelly,dalglish,Nicholas,Burns and McGrain are others I would have loved to have seen going by what i've been told..

    I'd agree with that. Probably the closest we've ever had to Jinky.

    Could take players on and whip in a cross in a foot of space.

    For me it's easy to see why Provan would be in a lot of peoples' teams.

    Van Dijk in at least three peoples teams.

    Unless you are 9 years old then that seems like utter madness.

    Elevating this guy to mythical status is just as knee * as all the zoomers that write people off after 10 games.

    Jan Venegoor of Hessilink
    + JVOH, Bellamy + Petrov to my 10 man bench

    Even though Bellamy only played half a season, I think he was a breath of fresh air in the hoops....one of the best players in the last 8 Years

    Tbh I preffered Varga to Valgaeren but went for Van Dijk before both. 3 V's fighting over a spot mad since we've barely had any players beginning with V.

    Infact apart from Virgo, all out V named players have been good.

    Viduka, Van Hooijdonk, Valgaeren, Varga, Vega, Vata, Vennegoor and Van Dijk.

    Just looking too they were all either centre-forwards or centre-backs... thats why Virgo ended up the odd one out, im pretty sure he played in midfield on his debut :47: if he'd played centre-half maybe hed have been good too.
