City 23 Man Squad


Phileas Fogg

Recommended Posts

Said about this concept just now on another thread and it got me thinking.. if you had to draw up a 23 man squad based on the time you've been watching City (like a World Cup squad) who would you pick? I am going to do mine from 2004 as that's when I started watching them more often.. I've done mine on a mixture of good players and players I have appreciated watching

 

GK

Basso,

Heaton

Weale (I always thought he looked good when he played)

 

Defense

McAllister,

Cunningham,

Carey,

Caulker,

McCombe,

Vasko (thought he always looked pretty handy)

Orr,

Keogh (Thanks Robin1988 forgot about him) 

 

Midfield

McIndoe

Sproule (Not always good, but exciting to watch)

Hartley,

Russell,

Noble,

Murray

Adomah

 

Forwards

Maynard (20 goal season)

Lita

JET

Baldock

Adebola/Trundle (Can't decide!)

My squad is basically players I liked to watch, Not really consistant performers but the ones I'd pay money to see.

GK -Frank (Im felling the love for him after Tuesday! all will be forgiven)

RB - Orr (Best right back we have had in my time

CB - Taylor - LEGEND!
CB - Carey - LEGEND!
CB - Caulker - Good Lad (Above Fonts on the basis of him going to shit over the last few seasons)
CB - Shail - Liked him not always a fav but a good lad
LB - Bell - (Between him and Martin Scott, but Bell won for the 2 curlers either side of the box past Plymuf)
LB - Barnard (Great player, shit deal on him moving to Bansely)

RM - Murray
RM - Goodridge (I liked Sprule but the ****** had no end product)
