    Yeah, him being a left footer just tipped it for me. Wanted to balance the defence ( like it really matters ).

    Oh my era (ie 1998 onwards):

    Niemi
    Dodd Svensson Richards Bridge
    Lallana Oakley Marsden
    Beattie Rasiak Pahars

    Smith, Lundekvam, Bale, Kachloul, Surman, Lambert, Crouch

    (choosing those two strikers for the bench was exceptionally tough, considering we've also had Phillips, Jones, John and Saganowski during this time).

    98 - 99 he was quite good still (though hardly outstanding), but he hardly kicked a ball after that. (I've just looked up that stats - 18 league appearance in 99-00, 8 in 00-01, and 4 in 01-02).

    In fact, from 1998 onwards he scored a grand total of 12 goals (league and cup). 12! In previously years he'd easily beat that in one season, let alone four combined.

    I'd still put him in purely for the emotion of that left footed volley on a hot May afternoon in 2001

    Just realizing that after watching the saints for over 40 years now they have had more than a few good players and choosing best ever 11 not as easy as you would think,, just remembered Martin Chivers who went to spurs for a then record fee
