Best XI of current or ex-players (still playing)

[mattbianco1]

I was thinking earlier of the players STILL playing professional footy, what would be our best XI. Almost like a bullseye style "look what you coulda won".

Loaneesnot allowed.

GK?
Walker Jagielka Maguire Naughton
RM McDonald CM Murphy
Sharp CF
​

(Formation and players optional)

Notable mentions.. Jamie Ward. Nick Blackman. Matt Lowton. David Cotterill

Any more?

 

[zablade]

Leon Britton.

 

[Harry's Game]

George Long..

Jordan Slew..

Diego..

Sammon..


















(This is me joking BTW)

 

[Westran]

Cahill?

 

[Isaw Joeshaw]

Leon Britton.

I like your sense of humour.

 

[Pittsburg Blade]

I like your sense of humour.

Must have been too far from the sheep the way Leon scurried home

 

[Rodley]

Wouldn't have McDonald in there.

 

[mattbianco1]

Wouldn't have McDonald in there.

How come? He's a great player and if rumours are true will cost £7m+ to get him off Fulham

 

[Bladezz]

Coady?

 

[Boxer Blade]

Matt said loans not to be included

 

[S64 Blade]

I'd go for the following, based on their performances for us, not necessarily current ability.

---------------------------Moore---------------------------
-------------Jags------Maguire----O'Connell----------
Walker----------------------------------------------Naughton
--------------------Fleck--------McDonald---------------
---------------------------Murphy--------------------------
-------------------Sharp----------Blackman------------

 

[Punk Blade]

Simon Francis.

 

[mattbianco1]

Matt said loans not to be included

Yeah, I didn't want loans as they were never our players to start with.

 

[Jesus_was_a_Blade]

I'd go for the following, based on their performances for us, not necessarily current ability.

---------------------------Moore---------------------------
-------------Jags------Maguire----O'Connell----------
Walker----------------------------------------------Naughton
--------------------Fleck--------McDonald---------------
---------------------------Murphy--------------------------
-------------------Sharp----------Blackman------------

I'll be touching myself to the thought of this team tonight

 

[Houston_Blade]

Has Monty officially retired? If not gerrimin.

 

[CarlingBlade]

Lowton has to fit in there somewhere, tough with Walker at right back but he's made a very good living in the PL to say he was a late developer and nearly sent packing prior to his year loan at Ferensvarocs (sp)

He can go on the bench.

Of those still playing... I hate leaving gaps so every one is getting filled.

Aksalu (he's the only one not a loan who's still playing!)
Walker - Jags - Maguire - Naughton
Murphy - McDonald - Britton - Quinn
Adams - Blackman

(Bench, No GK, like the Warnock days)
Lowton, Chanot, Killgallon, Doyle, Williamson, Cotterill, Ward

Safe to say it'd stay up in the championship at least, we might have to beef up in goal mind

No Sharp?

 

[Slim Man]

No Sharp?

Just made it of ex players, would it beat our current XI?

 

[mattbianco1]

Aksalu

"Ex or current"

Totally forgot about Aksalu. Did he turn out to be any good in the end?

 

[IdLiketoRogerMoore]

How come? He's a great player and if rumours are true will cost £7m+ to get him off Fulham

I rate Fleck higher!

 

[snootyfenooty]

Never understand the fascination with Blackman when these types of topics crop up. I thought he was nothing special for us, 11 goals in 28 games, probably half of which were penalties. He's been gash since he left, done sweet fa.

 

[TonyAgana]

Ah, ok. Probably, although a bit weak up front!

I know, decided to try something a bit different to everyone else though.
He did well against England, christ knows.

[Silent Blade]

Mark Bunn in goal?

 

[B14Nco]

Okay this was the closest thread I could find to what I want to ask... I’ve started this.

So. My first question... who should I add from the current squad?

Billy - 30 goals captained 100 point team - yup.

Duffy - will go down in history as the bounce killer... he’ll get on there.

When can we add O’Connell, Fleck, clarke? and Coutts get on the list?

Basham? Total clubman now.

There are players that were here for a shorter amount of time that have got the status??? Biggest one probably - Bobby Davison? - (Scored 2 in a derby became a ledge - didn’t do much else?).

But do they get to sit alongside Currie, Woodward etc?

Would seem harsh not to when I think 9 game Walker and Harry will probably get on there!?!?
