Your best 11 in the Sullivan/Gold ownership
|

Pick your best starting 11 using players that played during the SuGo era.
Adrian - the Adrian of a few years ago
Demel - Very underrated RB imo.
Manuel Da Costa
Reid
Cressers
Song - The song from the first season where he was bossing the midfield in games
Kouyate/Obiang
Antonio
Lanzini
Snake
Demba Ba
Special mentions to players who miss out from my list:
Hitzelberger, Behrami, Stanislav.

Replace Manuel Da Costa with Emanuel Pogatetz, and you've got yourself a team there.

Fun to think about.
Green
Antonio - Tomkins - Upson - Cresswell
Parker
Lanzini - Morrison - Collison - Payet
Franco
SUBS: Song, Diamanti, Diame, Behrami, Boa Morte, Kouyate, C Cole.
Eek right back is an issue. I probably missed some obvious ones. Really good set of players overall I think.

Pogatetz? Pffffft, got nothing on Roger The Relegator!

Antonio over Demel, Alex?
I agree with Big Dawg in that Demel is very underrated, he was better than Jenkinson.

I was trying to just wedge Antonio in somewhere. Like Bilic.

Even Joey O'Brien is a better right back than Antonio.
Antonio is a RM/RW and that's it for me.

Come on Alex I like you and think you speak sense most of the time but you are on a wind up here aren't you?
You included Upson in your team and not Reid? And Franco up front?

I'm not the biggest fan of Reid. Tomkins is a sentimental pick I suppose. As is Franco, one of my favourite players of our last decade, a joy to watch.

I'm far too lazy to think of such a team, so will just give my backbone.
Green
Reid
Parker
Ba
Ba only played 12 games, but there's been no better striker as him at the club since Ashton.

Must admit I forgot about Ba. Weird thing about him is he played most if not all of that period for us on the left wing.

I'll be fucked if I can work out where the years go by either.
Was thinking it odd that no one had named Lucas Neill, but I see he actually left in 2009!!
Craig Bellamy the same year, loved that bloke.

Actually I am not sure as that feels extremely harsh on Obiang as I really rate him. Close call between him and Parker.... I'll stick with what I put.

you could always drop the largely bob average Alex Song or is he the first name on your teamsheet you bell?

I always enjoyed watching Zola's midfield quartet of Parker, Noble, Collison and Berhami

I'm genuinely looking at some of these picks with absolute amazement, I have to keep re-opening the thread to make sure I didn't make it up myself.
