Ward 3 371 Posted December 20, 2019 As title says, what is your team of the decade? Mine is; Ruddy Drury Bennett Zimmerman Martin Tettey Maddison Hoolahan Hernandez Pukki Holt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darth Vadis 150 Posted December 20, 2019 (edited) Ruddy Martin Zimmermann Klose Olsson Tettey Buendia Maddison Hoolahan Johnson Pukki/Holt - can’t decide on that one. Think Pukki would suit that team more. Edited December 21, 2019 by Darth Vadis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 3,777 Posted December 20, 2019 (4-3-1-2): Ruddy; Martin, Zimmermann, Klose, Olsson; Howson, Tettey, Maddison; Hoolahan; Pukki, Holt. Maybe Johnson for Maddison to go for a more solid look, and it feels a bit 'wrong' to put in Maddison after just one season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 1,735 Posted December 20, 2019 Drury's an odd shout?...from memory he played in league one for one season at the start of the decade but after that was replaced by Tierney?? (Fleming's an even odder shout as he left about 13 years ago? ...for what its worth Ruddy Aarons Martin Bassong Olsson Snodgrass Howson Johnson Hoolahan Pukki Holt special mentions to Maddison and Tettey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Old Shuck 183 Posted December 20, 2019 Biased as picking players I liked/enjoyed watching rather than necessarily the 'best' for each position-and, a'la Lambert, playing in the 4-1-2-1-2 Diamond formation.

I noticed a couple of days ago that he was leading the left-back poll on the Pinkun website and that surprised me too. He played the first two years of the decade, but was only ever a sub behind Tierney during our ascent to the Premier League. I find it strange that someone (Olsson) who did well in a few seasons, three of them in the Premier League, doesn't get in ahead of him. If it were team of the last 20 years then Drury would be my choice, but his best days were clearly in the previous decade. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BobLoz3 492 Posted December 20, 2019 I think you're all being way too pedantic over Drury! One of our best left backs ever and to ignore him from the poll, seeing as though he was playing this decade but perhaps wasn't as good as he used to be, is daft. More deserving of being in there than Madders, but many chose him... So, it's just a poll guys. No need to go to deep with it! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But this decade is regarded as being 2010-2019. Drury was great in the previous decade but didn't play much in this one, so I just find it strange that he can be in the team of THIS decade.

Let's be honest, there haven't been that many outstanding LB's for us! He was, so I think it's fair to include him! They also needed to make up the numbers 😉 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's why I love football I guess, for all these different perceptions - with those two in the same team, our full backs would have to be world class! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
