[turienzo's lovechild]

As per usual a thread turns into a Witch Hunt.

As per usual a thread turns into a Witch Hunt.

to be fair you didnt get it off to a flyer with your opener, good thread idea but you have no idea how to respond to the post,

start a new thread, most skillful juggling foreigners in the premiership and then suggest okocha

 

[Withdean Wanderer]

Schmeichel

Ferreira Hyypia Stam Riise

Juninho Vieira Ballack Giggs

Henry Cantona

It's the backline that's a problem, only Stam i think was really 'great'...oh well.

You'd have some good subs to bring on though - Zola & Bergkamp if things were going tits up?!

Jay Jay Okocha at his best.

(WARNING: THE START IS SLOW, GETS ALOT BETTER THOUGH.)

WELSH PLAYERS DON'T COUNT

its fair to say as a manager you'd be spoilt for choice and have plenty to influence a change,

is it fair to say that that team, with each player in their prime, potentially could take 114 points in a premiership season?

or is the defence a bit vulnerable?

We're comparing a goalkeeper and striker, to a midfielder who had more skill then you, me and anyone else for that matter.

Christian Ziege to solve the left back problem? *clutching at straws*

Ok Tom, have I once said that Okocha has won trophys with Bolton, I never did said it did I? I was talking about how good he was with the ball and the skill he had with his feet, it was magical to watch.

Don't give me all the trophy bollocks ok?

Comparing a striker to a midfielder once again!

I think it's a lost cause! Kev is a sucker for a few flicks and back heels...Cantona was consistent, and CLASS.

Although Schmeichel is probably the best of the bunch, there's certainly nobody who gets near him in my life time!

i considered that centre mid too but can you play them both together, they are too similar!

you said that okocha was the GREATEST foreign player EVER to grace the premiership


there is a reason why cantona won more trophies than okocha and that is because he is BETTER

there is a reason why cantona was MAN UNITEDS best player for several seasons, whereas the best okocha could attract was BOLTON, and that is because he was BETTER



okocha was SHIT compared to many, many players to have come here, i doubt he would make the top TEN

A few flicks and skills? it was nearly every match he did some superb skills and tricks, once again I repeat COMPARING A STRIKER AND MIDFIELDER!
