I've been greedy and picked a "most talented" team and "contributed most" one. Most Talented XI Shilton Golac Wright Svensson Bale Ball Schneiderlin Le Tissier Armstrong Keegan Shearer Contributed Most XI SKD Dodd Fonte Lundekvam Benali Paine Williams Le Tissier Holmes Channon Lambert
All legends though and high goal scorers all scored more goals a season than, Keegan, Chivers or Shearer and more than Ricky.
I'm quite young compared to others on here I guess so mine would be more modern: ------------------Niemi-------------------- Ostlund----Svensson---VVD----Bridge Mane----Schneiderlin----Marsden-----Bale ------------------Lallana----------------------- ------------------Beattie-------------------------
To be honest I was just making the point I’m not disputing your choice at all,, I’m sorry if it came across that way. I was just offering a few others and in truth there is still more. All of which were very talented in their own way. That is why I find it so difficult to form a single team. Naturally we all had our favourites over the years.........
John Sydenham, Tony Knapp, Hughie Fisher, Frank Saul, Jimmy Melia, John McGrath, Dennis Hollywood, Joe Kirkup, Tony Godfrey, the Wallace brothers, Malcom Waldron (from Emsworth), Marcus Whittle-Smith, and the great Jimmy Gabriel.
Just in case you haven't clicked on the link you have to pick from the players listed. The criteria was apparently: To qualify, players need to have represented the club after 1945 and have made 150 or more appearances, unless they are deemed to have made a particularly special contribution or significant impact during their time with Saints. Current players are not included in the vote.
Yes, very difficult to leave so many great players out. Think I'd have to go for ........ Shilton Golac Wright Lundekvam Bridge Ball Holmes Le Tissier Armstrong Keegan Shearer ****, that's nice (IMO).
Forecast Clyne Fonte Lovren Chambers Wanyama Van Dijk Lallana Mane Jay Rod's Dad Ali Dia Oh, sorry, legends. I read it as bellends.
.................Shilton................. Golac.....Wright.......Killer.....Holmes ........Williams.......Scheiderlin ....Channnon..Le Tiss..Keegan.. ................Davies............................ Subs: Niemi, Nicoll, Mills.S, Ball, Paine, Chivers, Wallace.R.
I went for: ———————Shilton————-————- Golac——-Wright——McGrath—Hollywood Paine—————Ball—————-Le Tissier Lambert——-—R Davies————Keegan Manager: Lawrie McMenemy
My choice, based on the players available was. Niemi Dodd Lundeqvam Monkou Dennis LeTissier Ball Williams Keegan Davies Channon
Manager: Lawrie McMenemy Shilton Golac, Wright, Monkou, Bridge Ball, Le Tissier, Paine Channon, Lambert, Bates
Here is the ultimate 11 Hollowbread Kirkup Knapp McGrath Holywood Wimhurst Melia Huxford Paine Davies Whittle-Smith From the 60s to the best of my memory! Over to you Beddy!
I don’t think any combination from over the years could be considered not a good team.Strewth couldn’t we do with some of those players today?
