It wouldn't matter that we couldn't keep a clean sheet if we had those 2 in the side, we'd be pinging them in by the dozen each game with Defoe as well.
 
Quinn. He'd compliment Defoe better than SKP.

And... Paolo Maldini. I don't need to explain this. It's my answer to every question like this. It's sometimes even the answer when I'm questioned what my name is. Iconic master of the game.

Funny thing about Maldini on twitter the other day. A quote of his followed by a Video. The quote said If you need to make a tackle, you're already too late, then the video showed a compilation of Maldini being too late <laugh><laugh> Some of his time keeping was fantastic in the video to be fair. It just tickled me. I expected a vid full of his positional prowess but got the exact opposite to his quote. Ah twitter.

M'Vila struck me as being a bit like that, only remember him being caught out once in a full season, great reader of a game and one of those players who looks like he creates space rather than runs out of it when in possession, unlike some we seem to idolise.

My two players and I am sticking to SAFC

Hurley and Slim Jim at their peak unplayable.

Somewhat shatters Bri's theory about being able to tell posters' ages, I had to Google Puskas as I'd never heard of him.

I'm with you on Arca although I'm not sure if he's classed as retired or not, he's retired from professional football at least I think he actually pays to play like the rest of us.

I'm tempted to say Roy Keane for the non SAFC player. We could build a team around him.
I'm certain Puskas played in a Euro final. Eintracht Frankfurt v Real Madrid. 7-3 I think.

By the way Ive just got out of detention. So you can guess my age from that.:laugh:
