Pick Your Team ? (1 Viewer)

[bringbackrattles]

This is my X1 from the promotion winning team of 66/67 with 2 players I'd put in from the one who got us up this season.
Glazier
Kearns
Bruck
Farmer
Curtis
Machin
Doyle
Ian Gibson
Gould
McNulty
Rees
Obviously only older fans would know of the players I've chosen apart from Doyle and McNulty. But choose your favourite City X1 from the years you've been watching the club, but you have to add at least one player from the current squad.

 

[Otis]

Okay.

GK Glazier - For sure. Best keeper we ever had.

RB Nilsson
CB Curtis
CB Peake
LB Pearce

RM Not so sure on the right midfield. We have always seemingly been stronger on the left for some reason. Need to have a long think.

CM Strachan
CM Steve Hunt

LM Hutchison

CF Dublin
CF McNulty

 

[Dimi_Konstantflapalot]

My favourite XI (though not necessarily the best players):

Westwood

McNamee
Dann
Cranie
Fox

Gudjonsson
Cork
Fleck
McSheffrey

McNulty
Jutkiewicz

 

[Mucca Mad Boys]

Of the top of my head, this is the best XI I’ve seen as a fan:

(4-4-2)

Westwood
Keogh
Davenport
Dann
Warnock
Henderson
Gunnarsson
Fleck
McSheffrey
Wilson
King

Bench:
Murphy
Fox
Shaw
Doyle
Jodi Jones (this season)
McNulty
Leon Clarke/McGoldrick

Gibbo!!!!
4-4-2
Glazier, Borrows Setters Kilkline MacDonald
Brian Lewis Yorath Gibson Hutchinson
Dublin McNulty

 

[phildownunder]

Ok here`s mine also pretty much off the top of my nut too in 4-4-2.
Bill Glazier
Graham Oakey Trevor Peake Gary Gillespie Bobby McDonald
Ron Rees Denis Mortimer Willie Carr Tommy Hutchison
Dion Dublin Marc McNulty
I know Rees played mostly on the left but he was equally at home on the right. Graham Oakey? I just loved the way he played, such a tragedy his career was cut short.

Gibbo. What a player, along with George Hudson my favourite footballer from that era. He liked a drink too !

 

[We'll_live_and_die]

Surprised to see some of these names in there ahead of Gary McAllister.

Select your X1 and stick him in then.

 

[Seamus1]

Hedman

Nilsson
Peake
Davenport
Warnock

Thompson

McGoldrick

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Peter Shilton
Phil Neal

(every one an England international !)

 

[Hobo]

Glazier

Nilsson
Curtis
Peak
Pearce

Bennett
Mortimer
Boateng
Hutchinson

Dublin
Wallace

Subs
Blyth gk
Gillespie
Danny Thomas
Hartson
Carr

I think, it is tough a few others in contention. From Current squad McNulty squad number about 32 or Bayliss in youth team (certainly has the potential)

 

[Winny the Bish]

Westwood
Christie - Dann - Konjic - Fox
Hadji - Doyle (current squad) - Gunnarsson - McSheffrey
Wilson - Keane

Bench:
Hedman
Keogh
Maddison
J.Jones
Safri
McGoldrick
M.King

 

[Otis]

Surprised to see some of these names in there ahead of Gary McAllister.

It was a close call for me between McAllister and Strachan.

 

[twistandshout]

Kirkland

Borrows , Peake , Guillespie , Pearce

Huckerby , Emerson (before the injury in 87) , Mcallister , Hutchinson


Keane , Dublin

Subs : Oggy, Nilsson, P.Williams ,Strachan, Henderson, Speedie, Wilson, Hateley,

 

[Hobo]

Forgot about Emerson good choice. Stuart Robson another even with injury.

 

[TomRad85]

Surprised to see some of these names in there ahead of Gary McAllister.

Agree, a large number of our fanbase don't seem to appreciate what a great player he was.

 

[TomRad85]

Westwood
Nilsson, Dann, Konjic, Froggatt
Thompson, Hadji, McAllister, Chippo
Keane and Dublin but McNulty if you're forcing me to have one of the current lot

 

[bringbackrattles]

Here's my favourite X1 with one player from current squad.
Glazier
Danny Thomas
Stuart Pearce
Jim Holton
George Curtis
Ian Gibson
Terry Yorath
Denis Mortimer
Marc McNulty
George Hudson
Tommy Hutchinson
A team with steel and toughness, skill, and with loads of goals in it.

 

[Malaka]

Glazier
Pearce
Peake
Kilcline
Nielssen
Hutchison
McAllister
Boateng
Huckerby
Dublin
Keane

 

[bringbackrattles]

Glazier

Peake

Good choices. But where's a player from current squad ?

 

[Otis]

Kirkland

Borrows , Peake , Guillespie , Pearce

Huckerby , Emerson (before the injury in 87) , Mcallister , Hutchinson


Keane , Dublin

Subs : Oggy, Nilsson, P.Williams ,Strachan, Henderson, Speedie, Wilson, Hateley,

Errm, another one with no-one from the current squad.

 

[wingy]

GK Glazier - For sure. Best keeper we ever had.

RB Nilsson
CB Curtis
CB Peake
LB Pearce

RM Not so sure on the right midfield. We have always seemingly been stronger on the left for some reason. Need to have a long think.

CM Strachan
CM Steve Hunt

LM Hutchison

CF Dublin
CF McNulty

RM
Ronnie Rees comfortable down either flank.
The two Daves, Bennett and Thompson .
Few of the posts, not this one are confusing.
Is it Don Hutchinson who was a good player or the legend that is Tommy Hutchison?

 

[Malaka]

Good choices. But where's a player from current squad ?

OK with that defence I'm gonna put Burge in place of Glazier, because no one would get a shot on goal:joyful:

 

[ccfcrob]

For what its worth here's mine

GK- Oggy

RB- Borrows
CB- Konjic
CB- Breen
LB- Fox

LM- Salako
CM- McAllister
CM- Hadji
RM- Thompson

CF- Dublin
CF- Huckerby

Harder then I thought.

Loads of others could have got in, Hedman, Nilsson, Dann, Shaw, Isaias, Chippo, Froggatt, Safri, Doyle, Keane, Whelan, McGoldrick.

Other horrific thoughts that flashed through my mind, Richardson, Engonga, Lightbourne, Howarth

 

[skyblueelephant76]

Oggy

Nilsson
Peake
Dublin
Froggat

Robson

Bloody hell, I actually typed Hutchison but predictive text changed it to Hutchinson.

I obviously meant Don.

I will plump for Bennett for wide right. I was too young to remember Rees.

 

[Otis]

Bloody hell, my eye IS fooked!! I DID put Hutchison.
