[Albion] Past players who would get into this squad

[Jesus Gul]

Jeff Minton as Yves Bissouma (yes I know he's left)

 

[Brovion]

Jeff Minton as Yves Bissouma (yes I know he's left)

Jeff Minton! Yes he was OUTSTANDING for us, but the reason he looked so good was that he was playing in a really really really REALLY shit team. Ultimately though as a footballer he was very limited: he wasn't even good enough for Port Vale in the Championship, let alone in the PL. (I did like him though).

 

[Braggfan]

Rod Thomas

 

[GT49er]

Ward, Lawrenson, Stevens, Bridge, Zamora, Robinson.

 

[oldboyroy]

Zamora without a doubt. Vicente i think but other than that not so sure. The team of 79 wouldn't hack the Premier league as it is today because the pace and world class players that grace it. Perhaps Johnny Byrne?

 

[GT49er]

Didn't exactly set the world on fire in the top flight with Notts Forrest.

Clough didn't fancy him, or play him, much - to Clough he was part of a series of deals which enabled Forest to absolutely rinse United for Gary Birtles.

 

[rippleman]

Imagine if our striker cover consisted of Wardy, Bobby & Leo.

We wouldn't be fretting over Welbeck getting crocked again or needing a rest.

 

[Jeremiah]

Jimmy Case for Mwepu
Steve Penney for March
Steve Foster for Webster
Bobby Zamora for Welbeck

Tin hat time

 

[Greg Bobkin]

Not much love for pre-Amex Glenn Murray on here. I thought he'd be a shoo-in...

 

[El Presidente]

Sergei Gotsmanov

 

[GREASED WEASEL]

Zamora without a doubt. Vicente i think but other than that not so sure. The team of 79 wouldn't hack the Premier league as it is today because the pace and world class players that grace it. Perhaps Johnny Byrne?

I don't find the pace of the modern game that fast

Hardly ever see an end to end game

With all the rolling around from sniper shots,they have more breaks than a five setter at Wimbledon

 

[big nuts]

In the past 30 years

Ben Roberts for Steele
Bruno for Lamptey
Bridge for Estupian
Upson for Van Hecke
Vicente for Sarmiento
Zamora for Undav
Gotsmanov for Ferguson

Never saw Lawrenson for Brighton, but based on Liverpool career an absolute must. Jimmy Case, Danny Wilson & Dean Saunders also contenders.

 

[GREASED WEASEL]

Dennis Mortimer

 

[CP 0 3 BHA]

John Gregory as cover in midfield and could also put in a shift as a full back.

As others have mentioned. Dean Saunders would be worth a look in the Undav type role.

 

[Seagull27]

Not much love for pre-Amex Glenn Murray on here. I thought he'd be a shoo-in...

Not sure pre-Amex Murray would have been anywhere near in our squad considering he was a L1 player...

Amex-era Murray would have played the Welbeck role perfectly though

 

[Questions]

Ward, Lawrenson, Stevens, Bridge, Zamora, Robinson.

I think this is about right. Fozzie at a pinch maybe.

It is faster whether you think it or not

 

[albionalbino]

Bobby Zamora, Mark Lawrenson, Michael Robinson, Wayne Bridge, Bruno
Possibly Steve Sidwell, Brian Horton, Jimmy Case, Steve Foster

 

[Icy Gull]

A fully fit Wayne Bridge would be an excellent squad member and could even force his way into the team as a starter. Genuine quality

I don't know about a lot of the gentlemen mentioned in this thread, but peak Wayne Bridge is a starter for Brighton every day.
