In today's Daily Telegraph:
Shilton,
Nicol, Adams, Butcher, McGrain
Giggs Gascoine Robson Beckham
Rush Rooney
Surprised he has'nt Stuart Pearce and Alan Shearer in there, seeing as he tried to sign both players on several different occasions.........
Who's McGrain?
Danny Mc Grain bearded chap used to play for Celtic
Adams,Butcher!!! I think old red nose has been on the cherry again
No Dalglish? Come out of it Taggart.
Is that steve Nicol, former Liverpool?Quote:

His reserves are Jennings, Scoles, Lampard, Ferdinand and Shearer.
I always thought Shilton was overrated and was guaranteed a few "uncharacteristic errors" every 2 months or so. Jennings was far superior.
Rooney ahead of Lineker... strange one.
Celtic right back through late 70's and early 80's, acknowledged as one of the world's top right backs at his peak. Had diabetes and once fractured his skull.Quote:

He can't mean Rio. Some sort of joke. Good but surely loads better than him over the last 30 years.Quote:

He tried to sign Butcher, Adams and Gascoigne too though.Quote:

Ah Rio, quite simply THE most over rated player in the history of the beautiful game.
Should really be compared to the beautiful game. I'd ask you to edit that post...
Rooney is way ahead of Lineker but leaving out Dalglish is criminal
Looks like he's trying to justify the over-inflated prices he's paid for players over the years. Frankly I wouldn't name Rio Ferdinand in a "best of British 2006 and playing at Man United" team. And Rooney, fine player though he is, can't yet justify a place ahead of Dalglish just yet. If it hadn't been a British team he'd have had Veron in there too :)
