Optimistic Nut Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Beardsley was finished by the time he left though. Dalglish dropping him towards the end of the season was probably what helped us clinch 2nd that season. Yeah, but I was pretty young. Probably too old to cry about a footballer being sold, but young nonetheless. Was it '97 he was sold? Aye it was. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno why anyone would include Dabizas, he was a ******* liability! no he wasn't. not a top draw player by any stretch but easy premier quality, a leader by inspiration,not a bad ball player and i think he may be our top scoring centre half of all time (or at least in the premiership era) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seems like a weird one to include for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seems like a weird one to include for me. not right now when we have a bunch who don't appear to give much of a shit. of all the players we've had in the premiership era, he's the one who could always be relied on to give everything. i saw him try to hobble back on and play with his knee cap a coiuple of inches further down that it should be and not pointing the direction it should be.........................also he played alongside o'brien and bramble when we finished 3rd.

Mowen Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Beardsley was finished by the time he left though. Dalglish dropping him towards the end of the season was probably what helped us clinch 2nd that season. Yeah, but I was pretty young. Probably too old to cry about a footballer being sold, but young nonetheless. Was it '97 he was sold? Aye it was. Definitely too old to cry at 11 then. As for Dabizas, I always liked him even though he was a bit hit and miss. In terms of seeming to care for the club the only one we currently compares is Habib.

Keefaz Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Woodgate. He alone, I'm sure, could have saved our season. (If he'd have stayed fit, like). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mowen Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Woodgate. He alone, I'm sure, could have sved our season. (If he'd have stayed fit, like). He's not in the same class anymore. Still a very, very good centre back without a doubt, but not the potentially world class player we had. Must have been that injury he had when he went to madrid. Agree we'd have been safe by now if we had him though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 So, so many. You could pretty much list 50 players we've had in the PL who I'd rather we had ahead of the current crop. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
