Sweep Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 What a player That shirt looks a bit big though Quote
gonzo Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Probably the best of the lot for me With you on that one. Quote
Salford Trotter Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 75 app/20 goals, a great ratio for any player never mind a midfielder Quote
Biggish Dave Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 He seemed to enjoy Charlton, had 2 or 3 cracking games there. I agree with above too, best of the lot Quote
Zico Posted February 13, 2017 Author Posted February 13, 2017 Another one here for best of the lot Obvs okocha 2nd But Youri didn't have to do tricks Quote
Guest Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Very happy to have seen them in a white shirt, but sad to reflect how far we've fallen Quote
RONNIE PHILLIPS Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Yourri & Anelka were the 2 most significant signings... JJ was the cherry on top. Quote
Matt Lofthouse Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Probably the best of the lot for meI really cant call it between youri and jay jay. Youri didn't put a foot wrong, the model professional. I think I read he was fittest lad in our squad, yet smoked like a chimney. Great memories. Quote
Tonge moor green jacket Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Liked watching Hierro. Lost some pace but could read the game and was comfortable with the ball. Like when you were a little kid and when dads came to join in, always one seemed to have eons to play the game while everyone else charged about. Quote
onlyoneawalker Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Probably the best of the lot for me Yep 100% genuinely world class Quote
bwfc87 Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Bought my Dad the Big Sam autobiography a bit ago. Sam talks about how Youri was not only a top player, but he demanded perfection in training and was a big part in raising the standards of the other players. Quote
nottinghamtrotter Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 Youri had the biggest impact as he set the stage for the rest to come, JJ was the most gifted ....... but the "I need to pinch myself" moment for who wore the white shirt had to be Hierro given what that man had seen and done. Those Days are gone but at least we had them. Quote
MickyD Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 JayJay, Djorkaeff, Stelios, Campo, Hiero, Bergsson, were we just spoiled as Bolton supporters? Will those names ever grace the white shirt again? Quote

DaveTheRave Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 (edited) Youri was the best imo. Great times. Edited February 14, 2017 by DaveTheRave Quote

Will those names ever grace the white shirt again? Brings a tear to one's eye. The ultimate BWFC teams were of that era. Youri was my personal favourite too even though Jay Jay was an absolute phenomenon. Quote
frank_spencer Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 Hierro was shite and on his way out til he got moved to the Campo role. Quote
Traf Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 Hierro was shite and on his way out til he got moved to the Campo role. I think there's a great deal of rose-tinted sentimentality when folk think of Hierro. I agree with Frank. I also thought Candela's performances were overstated too. Quote
BWFC_LOVE Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 I think there were a few that didn't rate Candela. I thought he was quality. Didn't he give the club a proper slagging after he left? Quote
Naytch Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 Magnificent player, Youri. A privilege to have seen him wear the white shirt. Possibly my favourite all time BWFC player. Quote
Tonge moor green jacket Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 Hierro was shite and on his way out til he got moved to the Campo role. Then kept campo out. At that point he was class. Quote
