Adam El-Abd
Gordon Greer
Lewis Dunk

Will Buckley
Alan Navarro
Liam Bridcutt
Kazenga LuaLua

Ashley Barnes
Sam Vokes

Subs

Casper Ankergren
Ryan Harley
Romain Vincelot

Apart from Dunk, obviously, Barnes is the only one of that starting XI who would come close to getting a start.

Buckley at his distant, rare, best, next closest.

Farehamseagull · Nov 30, 2017

Vicente. He'd still be the best player.

Did he really actually play for us?!

Crikey that defence certainly had a lop sided look to it. Not a natural left back amongst them. Can anyone remember who actually played there?

A younger and fitter Vicente, yes definately.

And yes he did . . . occasionally.

Noony,Vicente,Ashley,Kaz,and the Breadvan (like a big keeper).Oh,and please can I have Terry Connor and Gerry Ryan from '84?

Hang on, are you really saying that these players would make the current squad?

Ashley Barnes would, Vicente might, but definately not the others.

Noony played in the Prem long before our current squad,Kaz in 2012 was good enough,and I thought Brez was a good keeper.

From memory, we used an extra Centre Back (El Abd) to man-mark Andy Carroll.

You might be able to persuade me on the Noony front, (although was he any better than Solly or Izquierdo? we don't need another left winger in the squad). Kaz has never really played Premier League football, and as for Brezovan, well, just a no really.

I might let KLL take a free kick.

No real wonder that we lost then.

True, and l do miss his back flips.

seagully · Nov 30, 2017

I could have sworn Vincelot played left back in this game as I remember being really impressed by him. Unless I'm thinking of another cup game vs Prem opponents, Newcastle perhaps?

Brovion · Nov 30, 2017

Well Vokes and Barnes moved on up after they left us and both play in the PL for an arguably better side than us, so they might be in with a look-in

According to 11v11.com he was an unused sub. Substitutions were:

Craig Noone for Will Buckley 46
Craig Mackail-Smith for Sam Vokes 69
Vicente for Adam El-Abd 69

How many years is it since you got something right? And yes, that's what's called a rhetorical question. Maybe ask your carer to show you what that means in the dictionary (big book with lots of words in).

Navarro
Sparrow
Buckley

Mackail-Smith

Ok your view, but really better than our current 3 first team squad keepers :shrug:

BensGrandad · Nov 30, 2017

Dunk is the only one as neither Barnes nor Vokes would get ainto any other Premier side other than Burnley with their style of play.
