Best Leeds team since the Prem

We often do the best leeds team of all time but I think that gets boring seeings the team from the Revie Era is basically the first team with subs from the Wilko era

So I thought a best team since the prem was the way to go (and plus I'm bored and its slow at work today):

-----------------------Sullivan------------------

Richardson------Kisnorbo------Kilgallon-----Pugh (first time around)

Gradel--------Howson-------Douglas------Lewis

------------------Snodgrass------------------

------------------Beckford--------------------

Subs: Lonergan, Heath, Clayton, Becchio, Healy

Thats the Kisnorbo from League 1 when he was awesome by the way

Now that is only off the top of my head and have probably missed quite a few players there and I significantly struggled to get an LB. So feel free to add your own or completely ridicule me for my poor team selection.

 

Best players we have owned:

Scott Carson
Fraser Richardson
Matt Kilgallon
Tom Lees
Luke Garbutt
Max Gradel
Jonny Howson
Fabien Delph
Danny Rose
Robert Snodgrass
Jermaine Beckford

Subs:
Elliot Kebbie
Adam Clayton

Might not be the best team we ever used, but in my opinion it would have been.

 

Old Peacock. I was more going on performances

It could have been a good team if we'd kept em but you dont really know that for sure

 

Eddie Lewis was immense and when used properly, no one in the Championship could touch Rob Hulse.

 

Sullivan
Richardson Sodje Kisnorbo White
Snodgrass Howson Delph Gradel
Beckford Becchio

 

Actually Lichaj can go in at RB instead of Frazer.

 

Gary Kelly for RB, surely? Still think he retired too early. And what about Clarke Carlisle. He was immense.

 

I didn't think that much of Clarke Carlise, think he did far better after he left us.

 

I got the feeling Clarke Carlisle could have been a great player for us, but Blackwell was sticking with Butler at the time, who in hindsight was maybe getting a little passed his better days.

That's life isn't it...

 

As I recall, Carlisle had a wee drink problem & was starting to get himself together when we signed him. I thought he was great when he played, but it was clear to see that we missed the best of him. Pity.

 

asif you havent picked geoff horsefield...

 

My stand out memory of Geoff Horsfield is his sending off at Palace.

 

Agree on the Lewis quotes, he was awesome for us. Don't really remember him being that great before us but never really looked out for him.

I would like to change Lichaj to RB instead of Richardson and Hulse instead of Becchio on the bench
