Montgomery Bumpkin 0 Posted July 20, 2010 Ulf Ottersen - that goal at Bramhall Lane still rates as one of the wonder strikes of the century. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,892 Posted July 20, 2010 That''s better than trying to dredge up painful memories of Binner defeats Pete[Y]Or is it.........Drazen Muzinic, Victor Segura, Fernando Derveld, Raymond de Waard.........I''m just kiddin''[;)]For me it''s close between Aage Hareide, Steen Nedergaard, Matty Svensson and Youssef Safri. Can''t really pick a single one out because all four made great contributions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Davo 0 Posted July 20, 2010 STEEEENOOOOOO!Has to be Steeno for me. A solid andr eliable a player as you could ever hope for, had a good cross too. Also he''s one of the nicest if no the nicest person in football I''ve ever had the pleasure to talk to. He always had time for the fans.Davo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,892 Posted July 20, 2010 Crossan was before my time but I bet he''s a good call! What about Sandy Kennon? He must be in with a shout too. I met him maybe 30 years after he played for City and he still looked fit enough to play[Y] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canary_on_the Trent 0 Posted July 20, 2010 The most impressive during my time watching City has to be Steeno!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mister Chops 7 Posted July 20, 2010 He doesn''t get enough praise or recognition in my opinion, because his job was essentially unglamorous and he was surrounded by players with more flair and charisma, but Steen Nedergaard was one of the most composed and committed full backs I''ve seen play for Norwich City and I thought he was a real unsung hero (though he did get 2nd place in the PotS, I think, but then again Gary Doherty once won PotS so that obviously means nothing)Or are we counting Republic of Ireland as "overseas"?

Bovril 262 Posted July 20, 2010 Steeno - on and off the pitch, top bloke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Old Boy 0 Posted July 20, 2010 What a difficult one. I''m going for Keelan, though Steeno was such a great professional, and a total role model in a game where true role models are rare. But Keelan had such a long career here and was (in my opinion) one of the best keepers in the world for a while.Love to see Steeno come back and say hello though.

The Chirp 0 Posted July 21, 2010 It''s got to be Keelan. Another shout for ecen players has to be Erik Fuglestad. Steeno was better but Erik was a tidy player too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clint 221 Posted July 21, 2010 Gaetano Giallanza wins the award for most impressive overseas player to never fulfil his potential due to freak injury - he could have been a legend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fairfax43 0 Posted July 21, 2010 Keelan was born in Calcutta (or whatever silly name it has now), but to British parents and only ever held a British passport. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
