Aye Tommo would be up there for goalkeepers ...he wasn't the best but he certainly endeared himself to the City fanstup:...we'll forget about his blip at Luton in the quarter finals though!:rolleyes:

They do but for anyone with a hint of a brain you can see i set mine up as a team...A team consisting of 11 players not 10....Ricketts would be the first off the list..Sorry that was hard for you to work out mate....tup:

Difficult to see how you could leave Waddle and Carbone out of the best players.
As I understand it, it's best players, whether this be 10 strikers or 10 keepers. 10 players don't quite make a football team.
I'd add Gunnar Halle as the best right back I've seen in C&B.

Gunnar Halle? he was awuful at defending from what i remember, still a good guy and will go down in city history as the guy who set up the goal that kept us in the prem but he wasnt rite clever at defending.

Each to their own I suppose. He certainly did go on to better things though. As far as I can recall he spent most of his time at City either on his arse or offside?:)
Robbie James is a cracking call Tallinn.

Dont know what you mean, best crosser of the ball(best creator) we have had in last 10 years was Summerbee, Etherington & JJ along with Beags have been the most exiting to watch, and Gus for a similar reason - with all the dross we've had at RB he stands out like a sore thumb to me as one i enjoyed watching!!

10 - A toss up between Waddle and Carbone, with perhaps Waddle just getting the nod because of his goal at Everton.
Bobby Campbell would have been on the list if the time scale were longer than the last 20 years.

Its your list mate so its up to you - surprised me thats all.....
Stephen Wright would be a good shout at right back, he was faultless during the premier league promotion campaign, pity he was always chuffing injured tho after that.....
Agree re Summerbee's crossing, but he was a lazy ***** thought he was better than everyone else and wasn't a team player, all that and he also had a bad attitude, mind you he'd be in good company on your list with Windass and Collymore.....;) tup: :D
