Memphis Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 I'll never forget when he completely dominated Rooney at SJP, still not sure I've ever seen a better DM performance. What a player, and what a guy. So sorely missed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a fucking joke Alan Smith was, man. In a ranked CM shit-off, who'd we be having from Butt, Geremi, Smith and Colback? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smith seemed like he was stealing a wage from the beginning. Butt we'd have to watch some awful performance and then read about how he was every pundits MOTM and awarded bonus points on FPL. At least he provided the greatest overhead kick of all time. When I picture Jack Colback I picture him celebrating against us as a mackem despite him playing for us for three years.

James Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Geremi had some decent games under Keegan and was at one point in his career a very good player, which gets him to the top. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deuce Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 He and Cabaye were such a good CM pairing. They complemented each other perfectly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel like I heard it in an interview recently. Loved Cheick. Remember him at Goodison being a total rock in midfield. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 Geremi, Butt & Smith, for various reasons had lost their legs... Like Geremi & Butt you could tell, they used to be good players. Colback didn't have any ability whatsoever. I watched the least amount of football during the Smith days.. so my memories of him are hazy. I don't remember him having any ability whatsoever mind.

See, it's funny, I felt like I didn't see Smith's legs had gone properly until year three when we were back up. Prior to that he was relatively mobile, he just couldn't read the play effectively enough to get there. Mind you, I don't know if it says more for the Championship of that era or the team we had that fucking Alan Smith could play central midfield and a team still get promoted.
