Ok people. Best Left back of all-time please and the decade you started watching the club.
My vote - Stuart Pearce, not contest.

It's probably Stuart Pearce, but I never saw him. I take it we can't count Robert Jarni?
Man we've had some shitty left backs.
Probably between Babb and Burrows then unless I'm forgetting someone. Let's say Phil Babb.
90s.
Edit: Changed my mind: Marcus Hall, for the lulz.
Edit again: Forgot Danny Fox! Maybe him.
I dunno, you pick one.

Froggatt 00's gets my vote. Would have played for England but for the injury.

Pearce was a great left back, but he was still pretty raw when he left us.
Working on the basis that the selection is based on how they played for us - so that does rule Jarni out - I'd say it was between Chris Cattlin and Bobby MacDonald.
By the smallest of margins, I'd go for Spider.
P.S. 60's

90s, fairly bereft of options here: Erm....
Burrows was functional. Marcus Hall was quite exciting when he first came through. Froggatt looked great for his short spell at LB. Jarni wore sunglasses with great aplomb.
I'll go with Burrows I think.

Hmm, Psycho, Burrows, Hall or Fox...
Never saw Pearce in a Sky Blue shirt, so it has to be Marcus. Burrows was dog shit, Fox was a flash in the pan and I only saw him play a few times.
Hall it is, bleh. 90's

Sorry. As BHSB said, it was Chris Cattlin.

We had Pearce in career ascendancy and Kenny Sansom in descendancy, although I was still impressed by how accomplished he still was.
Don't think Left back was Froggatt's forte. Remember Liverpool winning 3-0 at HR in the late 90's and David Thompson absolutely destroyed him that day.
Dunno really!

Out of three for me Chris Cattlin, Bobby MacDonald and Stuart Pearce. Judging on their form for us re Pearce great for us but it was at Forest where he blossomed so for me it is down to Cattlin or Bobby Mac Cattlin definitely the best defender but MacDonald was the better attacker not a bad defender but chipped in goals too so for me Bobby MacDonald edges it

Babb was more a centre half, it was there where he got recognised. Liverpool played him as left back or wing back at times though.
