    No, but this is about the current squad. If it was all-time, you could do worse than pick Ron Davies, who cost us a club record £55,000 and would have won the First Division Golden Boot in both his first two seasons with us if such a thing existed. (OK, he shared it with George Best in 1967-68, but that's a minor quibble).

    Since the beginning of 20/21 Che has 15 league goals and 7 assists.
    I think he has been a little bit under the radar, with regards to his effectiveness.
    But I still went for Stuart, simply because you can see the difference that he brings to the team, in both overall performance and results.

    Things I’ve discovered about Che ...
    One of his middle names is Everton
    His league debut was against us

    At 15m he’s a way to go to be as good a signing than Stu at 7m

    He seems to be improving every single game though. He’s another one that has been magnificent recently

    Very difficult to choose, which is a mark of a good squad, but Oriol edges it for me.

    Good point - didn`t someone come up with a stat recently that Saints hadn`t won a league game for over 2 years without him in the team?

    KWP was an easy choice for me. Stuey not far behind and could easily breeze past all contenders. Oriel never lets you down. Why tf did Spurs buy Hojbjerg? Still chuckling about him getting subbed off at WHL this month.
