Our best forward denied a goal.

Also, Junior kept Rowe very quiet.

What was Akanji doing?

Ortega made three terrific saves in the half an hour he was on the pitch.

We may need our Leeds lad to take a penalty against Norwich

Certainly is MJ

Junior pushing Rodon for the MOTM at Norwich, imo!

Arguably, our best forward.

Joe back to his best at Carrow Road.

Won every header that came his way,

Probably Rutter's most ineffective game of the season.

That air-shot after Gnonto had brilliantly set him up sums Georginio's game since his hip operation.

Really amazed that Archie is making the top 6 for some. He was about as effective as Rutter, but considerably less involved. Least amount of passes made and lowest completion percentage. Several sites rate him as our worst starter, which mirrors my conclusion. Am wondering if the long season has ta...

Rodon
Firpo
Byram
Kamara
Ampadu
Gray

Agreed.

Only passed away last month

Yes, Derek would be another one of my considerations.

The Subhuman wrote: ↑Tue May 14, 2024 6:06 pm Impossible to argue with, I went with Knot at WK as he was the greatest exponent at the position in my lifetime. Doesn't score the runs like Gilchrist does but I'm not necessarily looking for runs from my WK

Knotty, another one of my favourites.

Never saw Sobers play, nor Trueman nor Hall. I obviously get why Boycott and Trueman would be in there and indeed my favourite cricket "tale" involves Freddie in India My dad would have had Dennis Compton as his opening choice.... also a huge Trueman fan. So many greats, and Compton was a...

Why don’t they bust a gut to win in 90. Pointless way to lose if you ask me. Nothing worse.

Teams are scared of losing finals, play-off games.

not many would have Derek Randell in an all time 11 but a great flamboyant batsman and what a fielder ... Would loved to have included Botham, but Hadlee was just so consistently great, Viv would be a better three than Gower, but Gower in full flow was pure artistry... Lillie I could happily replac...

I just hope the game is settled in 90 minutes. I detest penalty shoot-outs.

Lets have your lifetime world 11 folks, not necessarily greatest just the 11 that have bought the most pleasure ... should be interesting.
