I have been thinking which would be our best ever team. Its all down to opinion. This one here has got to be a great one......Bartram, Humprey, Rufus, Powell, Lee, Kinsella, Parker, Simonsen, Firmani, Mendonca, Di Canio. What do you think? Managed by Curbishley btw

If you want a team of the best players who've played for us, regardless of how good they were when we eventually got them then Barnes and DiCanio are certs.
Players who got better (older) after leaving requires Parker and Rob Lee.0 -
What about a worst 11 of the past 10 years, lot's of choices out there-
Thuram
Nego Sarr Doherty Thatcher
D.Sinclair LePoint Racon McAlery (everton bloke from earlier this season)
Polish Pete Abbott

Kiely, Humphrey, Powell, Rufus, Shirtliff, Lee, Kinsella, Jensen, C Walsh, Hales, Mendonca.1

Kiely, Humphrey, Pates,Rufus, Reid, Jensen, Parker, Flanagan,Simonsen, Hales, Di Canio2

Kiely
Humphrey
Rufus
Hewie
Powell Chris
Powell Colin
Parker
Kinsella
Glover
Hales
Bent D
SUBS:
Johns
Bonds
Shirtliff
Jensen
Robinson John
Firmani
Mendonca
The two parameters in selecting this team were:
1) I saw the player live myself
2) The player completed at least a full season with us which is why Allan Simonsen isn't there.
Tomorrow it might all be different!

You've got me thinking now. Bacon, Dowman and McLeod need to come in to my team. Sturgess reminded me of another left back that was appalling. Jamie Stuart.Simonsen said:

Think Primus under Pardew when on-loan from Portsmouth rather than young Primus at Upton Park.ricky_otto said:

We have had so many forgettable players over the last 8 years.

In my time going, I think the best team would be:
Kiely
Young Rufus Youds Powell
Kinsella Parker Jensen
D. Bent Mendonca Di Canio
Bench: Carson (Gk), Mills, Costa, Bowyer, Holland, Gudmundsson(!!!), Hunt
But favourite players...
Petterson
Mills Brown Rufus Powell
Newton Jackson Parker Robinson
Mendonca Nelson
Bench: Salmon (Gk), El Karkouri, Balmer, K. Jones, Robson, Mortimer, Whyte0 -

Nothing wrong with reprising such threads IMO - we have new members joining etc. The original poster is quite new here as well
Kiely
Humphrey
Costa
Rufus
Powell
Robinson
Kinsella
Parker
Mortimer
Mendonca
Kermorgant
Tight choices to leave Jensen out, so subs
Bolder
Brown
Jensen
Di Canio
Bowen (I thought he was class the short time we had him)
Lee
Whyte2 -
Best team I have seen play:-
Kiely
Humphrey
Rufus
Costa
Powell
Mortimer
Kinsella
Jenson
Di Canio
Bent
Williams
Subs
Carson, Robinson, Brown, Mendonca, Parker, Lee, Kermorgant
Tough choice up front as Mendonca and Kermorgant could easily have got in!!0 -
Interesting. I still say the most talented player I have seen in aCAFC shirt was Paul Walsh.
No better winger than Len Glover.
Kiely or Nicky Johns best keeper.
Humphrey should have played for England, he was that good.
Parker pure quality, why he is booed when he comes back, I cannot understand.
Rufus class, pity he has a rather questionable recent history.
Fish and Herman at the back.
Hales and Bent ( Darren not Marcus up front)
Curbs managing.
