Would Zamora and/or Ward have got into this side?

[Norman Potting]

...Shall I start Gary Nelson, Gerry Ryan, John Byrne and Mike Small threads or has the dead horse been well and truly flogged? To my everlasting regret I was too late for Wardy in his prime but I did see him score in my first ever game Watford New Year's Day '83 when he was back on loan.

I think the better question would be, who would fit better into todays side, Zamora or Ward?

Take away who you think is the better player, who would fit better into the system, Zamora for me.

Tough one, Zamora's physical presence and heading ability was better but Ward would slot into one touch football played through the defence, in fact imagining him playing one twos and rounding defenders and keepers, leaving them sitting on their arses with his ball control and acceleration, before slotting the ball into the net with the whole stadium on it's feet is the stuff of dreams. Wardy for me but Zamora would also be pretty amazing too.

Wind up? Surely

The team which had the likes of Lawrenson, Case, Stevens, Grealish, Foster, Robinson and Ward in finished in the top half of the first division. This current one might make the top third of the second divisio.

To be quite honest if Vicente was ever fit then he might get in that side. As he is never fit it is academic. Bridge and Upson would come close but dont forget they are loan players.

You modern lot live in a cloud cuckoo land caused by the years of misery at Gillingham and Withers.

Well, yes. Actually, we do. And what else would you expect? I'm not old enough to have seen the greats from yesteryear, so this current crop are by a LONG way the best Brighton squad in my lifetime. Do we get carried away? Yes. Does time blur the memory of the ability of players from the good old days? Probably does a bit, yes.

Either way, the good times are here again.

Clearly, however at least we understood the question being made, players that you mention have nothing to do with the current squad, Zamora or Ward in the current squad which one would you pick

WTF are you ranting on about?

 

[One4the.road]

Of course they would of you drip

 

[Leekbrookgull]

Ward and Zamora would make Brighton a top half premiership side pushing for Europe with Lawrenson pushing out El-Abd and Horton replacing Hammond.

Wards,turn and pace would make him first name on the team sheet. Ward-v-Terry no contest.

 

[ali jenkins]

If you want to know if Wardy would get into the current Albion team then why don't you head on over to the Dripping pan on April 19th for a scouting mission.
