Gonna try and pick XI from XX

 

Been thinking of this for past 15 mins, and changed it a few times.

 

Jussi

Gardner

Cahill

N'Gotty

Bergsson

Campo

Djorkaeff

Okocha

Gudjohnsen

Anelka

 

Bench

Clarke

Charlton

Faye

Hierro

Nolan

Diouf

SKD

 

 

Doubt it would've worked as a team, but would've been pretty. Hierro was nearly replaced by pre injury Laville- Klasnic, Tomo, Fish, Frandsen should probably be in there...

 

No Wheater or Gunlargsson!

 

Would have to take Gudjohnsen out and put both kevins in

 

Speed should be on the bench as well before hierro

No room for Phil?

Again, just a quick think with kids mithering on drab Saturday (bored as fuck) opinions lads, let's share em!

 

Midfield was hard as fuck, albeit I can't count... So best XI, worst XI?

 

Imagine you're sat next to Merse, and Max whatshisface- tell the same Paul McGrath/Gazza anecdote and put your BL6 XI out for all to mock.

Dr F - your X1 looks fantastic - if it had 11 players! at the mo it only has 10 - Nobby in midfield maybe?

Eidur and Anelka up front - quality

I'm almost certain Okocha did the same flick over someone twice that season, yet everyone remembers the one he kicked out of play. Maybe I dreamt the other one.

My absolute favourite one was where he took the piss out of Roy Keane and David Beckham and then back heeled it on the half volley 40 yards to one of our players. Think there's a GIF on Twitter

That gets my vote too, JJ at his best.

There's a video of his entire performance that game.

Incredible, he dominated the midfield against Scholes, Beckham and Keane

 

 

Loved Djorkaeff too but I have no doubt that Jay Jay is the most skilful footballer I have ever seen wear the famous white shirt.

Wouldn't mind seeing the highlights of that game

 

It was a masterclass from JJ

Always struggle to find a right back due to sheer quality elsewhere. So end up shoving ngotty there...

 

Jussi

 

Ngotty Bergson Faye Gardner

 

Okocha Campo Diouf Youri

 

Anelka SKD

 

 

Nolan misses out for Diouf for me by a hares breath. Diouf was unplayable for a time. One of the best outlets we've ever had. He could literally hold the ball for about 15 minutes.

I always find it really hard to do this as so many have made me smile over the years:

 

Jussi

Ngotty

Gardner

Bergson

Cahill

Nolan

Speed

Jay Jay

Youri

Anelka

Diouf

Surely no doubting that he is the most skilful player to wear our shirt. Pure class.
