Raconteur Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 No one's going to mention Jonas the left winger playing as right back for Maradona's Argentina (or is the asterisk too big on that one?) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incognito Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Think I read Dion Dublin started out as a centre back Gordon Strachan played him at centre half many times for Coventry. Think he was called up for England during one of these periods of him playing there too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raconteur Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 There was a bit of a fad for centre half/centre forward players. Chris Sutton occasionally played at the back for Norwich and Blackburn. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone remember Paul Warhurst? Went on a massive scoring streak but then eventually disappeareed. David White, I think he was a winger at Sheff Wed and Leeds.

Guest firetotheworks Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Positions are weird like. I'd be gutted if I was a 10 or a striker and then got told that I was now a centre back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
