A fit Stewart Robson alongside Dennis Mortimer would have been an absolute joy.

Ahem - the one and only Hutch!

If it's who you seen play then in no order Speedie (my fav ever player), Dublin, Keane, Huckerby, Regis, Robson, thanks for reminding him of me) and a surprise to many people prob, Michael Gynn, a lower version of Speedie, but what a player he was.

Gynn was so underrated. He was quality. Great shout!

Huckerby - only if he has learnt the offside rule

He'd score about two a season with VAR and games would last about 6 hours

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Going on the squad and what it requires.

1. Dion Dublin - we struggle to finish chances (tonight excepted!) and he'd got so much more to his game than that.
2. Tommy Hutchison - only saw him in his latter years but still had so much ability on the ball and ability to create.
3. Roland Nilsson - we're light at RB and I thought he was a very classy player and professional

Ex players only

 

[ccfchoi87]

Based only on players I saw play for us, I’d have Mo Konjic, Dennis Wise and Marlon King

I’d have Ben Turner over Konjic.

Not retired

 

[covcity4life]

robbie keane or dublin

or mowbray as co manager...

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

If you could bring one former, retired Cov player out of retirement and restore him to his former ability (while at Cov) to fit into the current squad as it is, who would you pick? For me, I'd plump for either Mifsud, McSheffrey or Magnus Hedman

Any player? And you govgor Mifsud and Mcsheffrey over Keane, Dublin, Huckerby, Regis.

Even in championship I’d have peak Marlon King over Sheffers

Missed that bit.

OK Liam Daish

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

Robert Jarni

Didn’t see him play for us so can’t have him. I must admit I didn’t really pick Big Mo based on his playing ability as I was only a kid

I'd have a lot of centre backs over Konjic. When people wonder why we're in the financial mess we are, it's because we paid £2m for junk like him.

Beat me to it by 10 minutes.

Was mildly surprised nobody had previously said it to be honest haha

 

[Magwitch]

If you were picking an all time best city team it would be hard to leave out Roland Nilsson, Gordon Strachan or Dennis Wise all in their late thirties when the donned Sky Blue

 

[Adge]

Some great names here, Dublin stained his image with his defection to Villa for me. My two would be Dave Bennett or Huckerby. When either received the ball, even in their own half, the crowd would stand in anticipation of something happening. Both had the ability to glide past the opposition and immediately open play up and of cause they were both scorers in their own right.

Why? Are we going to say the same for every player who left to go to Villa? Boating/Hadji et al aswell? Very narrow minded.

Don’t forget George Curtis. At least he had the sense to come back.

I think it's more the circumstances that led up to it. Water under the bridge though and I'd rather look at his contribution whilst he was here

I’d be more upset at the Villa for selling us Kevin Richardson...and Steve Staunton!

 

[Loughborough Sky Blue]

So many quality players, but I'd have Hucks if I could only choose one. He would tear League 1 teams apart!

 

[withnail]

Micky Quinn but only if he kept the form from the first 10 games of 92/93.
Goal machine.

 

[capel & collindridge]

Ray Straw 79 goals in 143 appearances (mostly third tier) from 1957 - 1961 and Terry Bly 25 goals in 32 games in 62-63 season (third tier). At the same level we are now at, these two scored 104 goals in 175 games at Highfield Road. Think they could still do a job now 'if restored to their former ability (while at Cov)'. Great to watch too!
