We’ve had a lot of poor performers when you read these names most of which I had stuffed into a no-retrieval memory bank.

Shearer style defender and captain.

With the exception of Ricksen, and Charbonnier, that is the bones of a Rank Red Rotten XI.
Forgot about Rothen, right enough.

To save space, I won’t quote John Mc’s post #10 but his definition and examples are spot on.

Ricksen, Webster, Bert, Stensaas,
Capucho, Black, Barton, Liddell,
Salenko, Jeffers.

Enough to get the ball back off your team?
Perhaps but not if I took Gascoigne off and brought on Harry Davis. Peerless at protection and interference.

I don’t need a pounding head to mess things up so here goes:
Hotspurs 5-0 Town
Brighton 1-0 Bournemouth
Burnley 2-0 Cardiff
Fulham 0-2 Toffees
So’ton 1-0 Wolves
United 3-1 Hammers
Palace 0-3 City
Liverpool 2-0 Chelsea
Watford 1-2 Arsenal
Villa v Bristol City and Leeds v Wednesday will be worth watching in the Championship.

You are noted for your tactical insight, Rousseau, but fielding twenty one players is a masterstroke.

That is a dazzling XI, compo.

We'll do our most disliked 11 in another thread I hope...
You've got one in your list already.

United lose 0-1. As Juve and PSG know, that doesn’t mean a lot.
Barce do amazing things with a football but it’s not thrilling.

Agree, the ageing veteran seems to seldom work out for us.
Few odd exceptions like Weir but most are very forgettable and largely a waste of money.
I quite like Defoe. Still a craftsman finisher.

Goram,
Caldow, Gough, McKinnon, Cox,
Greig, Laudrup, Gascoigne, Baxter,
Miller, Brand.
I prove my modern managerial credentials by playing Caldow out of position to accommodate Cox also out of position because Baxter can’t be left out.
This must be my tenth shot at this all of them different. (You should see my reserves btw)

It’s him or Sammy Cox.

Dawson,
Gray, McCandless,
Meiklejohn, Simpson, Brown,
Archibald, Smith, English, McPhail, Morton.
I never saw any of them play. If I sometimes feel I must have done, it’s because I listened so often to old guys constantly going on about them implanting their memories in my brain.

“Anyone think their team would manage to get the ball off my team?“
I haven’t finalised my selection but if Harold Davis is in it, then aye, no bother.

City lose 1-0. They’ve gone off the boil, unable to pass to a teammate or to a killer space, not even David Silva.
Liverpool should be ok at 2-0. A bit of luck for the first goal but a team earns luck if it presses hard enough.

I’ve resisted the urge to divert this topic from the heroine but here goes.
She most deservedly was given “a guard of honour by some of the best players to have ever played for the club”. Turn that round and it reads: “some of the best players to have ever played for the club gave her a guard of honour”.
There it is. Iain Ferguson one of the best. Ofeeshell.
What they really meant is “a guard of honour by players, some of them the best etc”.
Anyway, well done Tiny Gallagher. I hope you’re training young folk to follow on.

Well, it sounds good, doesn’t it? Taking steps to punish nasty people - that’s a bandwagon to be on surely, cracking the whip and playing lead trumpet.
Trouble is, the trumpeters don’t understand strict liability and in the end of the day, nasty people go on being nasty.

I know I shouldn’t have done it but I did. When I learned Rangers were ahead by two goals at halftime I switched on RS to hear if they were suffering. Gordon was yapping that if Rangers held on they would emulate Aberdeen and Kilmarnock yesterday and maintain the points gap. But after the split celtic would get he victory they need to secure the title. At which point I left.

Saw about 30 minutes and the goals.
Hibs the better team. Goals neatly created and finished though on another day you’d expect Horgan to sclaff the shots wide.
Hibs could have prevented Hearts’ goal if the defender had watched his man properly instead of concentrating on obstructing him before the ball came in.
Of course Hearts were still shell shocked from their midweek trouncing.

City stumble past a pretty useless Brighton. No Aguero, no Sane but they still field a team of top class players under a top manager. Yet there they are, dawdling about, passing sideways and backwards. Playing a bit like Rangers. Livened up when Fernandhino came on with forward running and passing until he too fell in to a torpor.

Thanks. Old geezers need guidance when it comes to these wee symbols. In fact, we need guidance full stop.

True. But I think some harbour a hope that because one incident occurred in NYC the road is clear for a massive US Hollywood style payout. I fear that this hope like most others pining for the downfall of celtic, is unfounded.

Barton at it again

So confirming Stendel’s assessment.
