Can you think of a worse team ?


Player-for-player we have had much worse teams. The that won the CL springs to mind....

Biscan, Nunez, Traore, Harry 'Crocked' Kewel, Sinama Pongole, Josemi. Quite a few bad ones and player for player we probably not far off that team if not a bit better.

Just because we're not performing doesn't make them all sh!t.

The team that won the Champions League in 2005 was as follows:

Dudek
Finnan, Hyypia, Carragher, Traore
Luis Garcia, Alonso, Gerrard, Riise
Kewell, Baros

Hamann, Smicer and Cisse came on as substitutes.

Dudek - Mignolet: Very even, not much to choose
Finnan, Hyypia and Carragher are all better than our current defenders in those positions
Gerrard was in his prime, Alonso is miles better still than Hendo, Allen or any of our midfielders can dream of. Riise was solid and Garcia could do things out of nothing, Sterling ahead of Riise maybe but Lallana or Markovic instead of Luis Garcia? No thanks. Hamann was also better than our whole central midfield at present.
Baros used to run around like a headless chicken, would probably be more effective than Balotelli but the reality is he is the same level as Borini.
Obviously you'd rather have anyone than Kewell because he was completely crocked at that time.

+1 Although I would pick Dudek ahead of Migs.

Biscan was a footballing genius!! Remember that wonder strike (probably his only one)?

Igor would be the first name on the teamsheet with this squad.

That job interview was going so well until I realized I was fukked up on acid in the middle of a cornfield naked and talking to a scarecrow.

Player for player the 2005 was better than this team in my view but what they did have in spades over this side was spirit they would run through a brick wall whereas this bunch simply don't care and are lazy

Rafa's teams were built on a solid foundation, now you can just walk through our defence and midfield, it was the same last season but our attack or Suarez made up for it.
