McDonald? Which one was he? Not Coco that played for The Dream Team is it? Can't be, he was rank!
 
Surprised at some of the LFC fans picking Suarez over Rush. Suarez is top quality but Rush produced the goods for you over a long period of time, possibly the best finisher I've ever seen.

Suarez is also finishing as well - heavy goalscorer but also a creator of goals.

Rushie was a quality finisher - quickest player over the first 5 yards but Suarez just has that something extra special

With my age asset I will add Ian Ure and Alex Hamilton to your team.

I think I would have put Colin stein ahead of O'Neill. I asked two Villa mates at work the best left footed player in a Villa shirt,and without hesitation both replied "Alex Cropley". Saw him score from a ridiculous angle against Hearts on New Years day at Easter Road in the late seventies.

Not I, although it's interesting to see the mighty cabbage being mentioned in dispatches on this thread.

John Blackley
Patrick 'god' Stanton
Franck Sauzee
Alex Cropley

I'm too young to have seen the greatest forward line this island has ever seen, but ANYONE who saw Gordon Smith play will say he's was the single finest player they had the pleasure to watch.Head and shoulders above Reilly,Johnstone,Ormond and Turnbull. Also Joe Baker, ask any Forest or Arsenal fan of an age and they'll tell you stories about Baker and how he was much better than Law...the story about him getting capped for England and the taxi driver calling the police about the 'crazy jock' wanting to get to the English Team hotel is funny.

Hibs have a capacity to produce sublime talents who self destruct also...the recent duo of Riordan and O'Connor, Shaedler committing suicide,Marinello,even the great Bobby Johnstone.

Honorable mention to Leigh Griffiths, a wee mental magdalene boy but one of the purest strikers of a football I've ever seen.

Fair point, but I saw Rushie in his pomp and Suarez. Longeivity is a factor, but Suarez over the last 2 years has been immense. Rushie also needed Dalglish and Souness supplying the bullets. Suarez has had Lucas and henderson, and he creates most of his own anyway.

How did you feel about your home town taking the title off FCUM mate? :D

You been watching them much? Quite a few lads I know go watching Chroley as well as Bolton.

Gutted pal, Gutted. It went down to the wire but we just fell short. I've only made it there a handful of times this season but I'll be going over to the play off semi tomorrow night.
It won't be the end of the world if we don't go up, the main thing is we're finally getting the ground built which will cement the clubs future :whoo:


Ive also watched Chorley quite a few times since moving up here, I enjoy a bit of Non league:thup:

That's the reason Henry and Bergkamp keep wright out of my team but Saurez would need to do it a bit longer and win some trophies for me. He is an awesome striker and could still carry you to the title but longevity, class, loyalty, and most of all silverware plays a big part in good becoming great.

I had to think a while before I could find someone to keep RVP off my bench... the dirty little turncoat
 
I do find it strange that so many on the forum were born/ brought up in Liverpool, London, Manchester, Glasgow etc. I am assuming that everyone supports their local team, and not just one of the big boys.:whistle: Where are all the supporters from lower league teams ? Much more interesting to see their 1-11 rather than arguing over one or two players in one of the top teams.

Just as an example, older supporters of Carlisle could have a front two of Peter Beardsley and Stan Bowles. Lets here it from some true local fans.:p

Agreed, maybe the thread should be Best 1-11 you've seen LIVE for your team, not on the telly.

Well said. I apologise for my boys smash and grab raid that put you back in the mire. Are you old enough to remember the famous Donny 7 Biscuitmen 5 ? Kerry Dixon scored four for us and we still lost, and got relegated. Dixon got transferred to Chelsea, and we bought the goal machine Trevor Senior.
