Keith O'Neill
Laurent Delorge
Runnar Norman
Isias - although I remember his first contribution in a City shirt was to put a munching two footed tackle after he had come on as a sub. Don't remember much else about him though.

Marsh wasn't that bad. Sandy Robertson was awful. David Pipe was shite as well, Steven Hughes had some of the worst games I've ever seen a sky blue turn in.

Tim Sherwood... had a nice payday with us.
Isaias the first brazilian to score at the riverside stadium, much to the annoyance of boro fans! Admittedly did sod all else though. Ill throw Kevin Richardson and Detzi Kruzynski in too.

Isaias made his debut at home to Man City in Big Ron's first game and absolutely ran the show, if memory serves. I thought he was good as a little cameo in our history. I also didn't think Mike Marsh was too bad a player. I would suggest Julian Darby and Paul Cook to be two fairly woeful midfielders in recent memory.

Keith O'Neil
Tim Sherwood
Michael Doyle (never turned out to be the player we first signed)
Stephen Hughes (got far too much playing time alongside the above imo.)
Ritchie Partidge (sorry to the person who had him in best team since 2000. One trick pony who got figured out far too easily. And WTF was that running about with his hands in a right weird position lol)
Pretty sure theres more lol

David Rennie - he started in midfield then moved back to the defence

Again David Rennie was quality. Who can forget his crucial role in the famous nine man draw against Wimbledon in c.1995? Didn't Rennie play against us in the 1987 Semi for Leeds?

Partridge was alright! I remember him scoring an absolute screamer from 30 yards or more against Norwich, and he contributed pretty well in his time with us. He gave us more incision than any of our other wide players that season, that's for sure. The reason we didn't sign him permanently was because Liverpool wanted to keep him to see if he could break into the first time. He can't have been that bad, can he?! Admittedly, his career's been a little of a non-event since he was released after the following season, but I think he had talent. Stephen Hughes, however... Very poor. Tim Sherwood is a serious contender for the worst signing since we were relegated.

No 1 ~ Keith O'Neill
No. 2 Steve Sherwood
No 3. Peter Bodak
Steven Hughes was a quality midfielder, he didn't have the players around him though - would have been great with a decent winger.

Isias made his debut against Man City, ran the game and had a right dig on him, played well against Chelsea, made his crucnching 2 footed tackle on Vinnie Jones best thing ever, then I feel Strachan failed to manage him correctly.
For me, Sean Flynn, we were a prem team and he should never have been playing at that level.

Willie Boland. David Smith was piss poor too. Biggest disappointment was Peter Barnes who had been brilliant for Man City. I do remember him scoring from a corner though.

One of the biggest hype-to-disappointment midfielders has to be John Salako. He obviously wasn't in the Leigh "Trick" Jenkinson category, but everybody thought he'd do far, far more for the club than he actually did.
Sandy Robertson...I think there was a dodgy rumour going around that CCFC intended to get another Robertson (John?), but mistakenly ended up with Sandy.
