Delia Out! 0 Posted September 23, 2010 [quote user="Raymond De Waard"]I was trying to think of a worst ever Norwich XI based on from when i first started watching Norwich and based purely on players who i have seen play live. Can anybody else think of anybody else to fit into this Worst XI steming from the 1994-1995 relegation season in the premiership until now. GK: Simon TraceyLB: Fernando DerveldCB: Steve WalshCB: ?RB: Jon OtsemoborLW: Raymond De WaardCM: Julien BrellierCM: Pape DiopRW: Matthias JonsonST: Peter ThorneST: Elvis Hammond Other rubbish players i could think of include: - De Blasis, Strihavaka (who never got a chance), Whaley, Abbey, Ryan Jarvis, Theo, Keith Scott, Olf Otosson, Kevin Scott, Jurgen Colin. I''m sure there are hundreds more. Any idea''s people?[/quote]What?He was very good defender from what I recall, I don''t see how he can be in a list of worst ever players!

Can''t see how you have Jonson in a worst ever team - gave one or two pretty decent performances imo, and that was in the Premiership. Also, does noone else think that Adrian Coote was awful?!

Boyo 0 Posted September 23, 2010 Jurgen Colin has to be in there. I''m suprised a few people have actually praised him.Andy Hughes, Archibold-Henville, Theoklitos, actually I have no one new to post.And as for this Etuhu debate, he was complete and utterly useless. God knows how he keeps a regular place at Fulham! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Largey 0 Posted September 23, 2010 Jurgen Colin wasn''t bad...he just hated going past the half way line. Andy Hughes was not bad either....is he not now a stalwart within the Leeds side? And for anyone who says Etuhu should be in our worst XI...Seriously?! Seriously?! I''d say he was probably one of our BEST central midfielders of the past 5 seasons!

Gingerpele 0 Posted September 23, 2010 Boyo, how can you say Archibold-Henville? He never played....(he didn''t play at all did he?)I have decided i really don''t like these worst players threads.....I disagree with so much (fozzy...although thats just me....Andy Hughes, although not the most technically gifted, he always put in maximum effort, and has since showed himself to be a better full back, which we saw glimpses of when we had him, Colin, i didn''t think he was that bad at all, wouldn''t have him ahead of R. Martin, but he wasn''t too bad, had tought acts to follow though.....then players like Theoklitos, Koroma, Archibald-Henville, who played so little, or not at all, its not really fair on them......)

Gingerpele 0 Posted September 23, 2010 This isn''t about other clubs...otherwise Etuhu definatly can''t be in their, he has played in the World cup and a UAFA cup (or europa league, whatever its called nowadays...)...And Theo, in his total of 3/4 English league games, is really being judged? Because i presume you haven''t been flying over to Oz to watch him....Because reading reports on his form in Oz, he doesn''t sound like he has done too badly....

missing in action? 0 Posted September 23, 2010 it is about other clubs...some have used it as a way of judging if a player was unlucky, **** or just didnt fit the club. players such as etuhu that was crap for us but good elsewhere. if a player is geuinely crap then it wont matter where he is. And i only saw 1 game of his time in england. and several of him in Oz (good ol internet and late night coffee) haha. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gingerpele 0 Posted September 23, 2010 Well I have seen quite positive reviews of Theo playing in OZ.......But if were mean''t to be looking at other clubs, then Etuhu and Hughes (i think he has been better at Leeds, than he had here....) should defiantly not be in a worst X1....

Robert N. LiM 6,459 Posted September 23, 2010 Does the fact that Dickson Etuhu is playing regularly in the Premiership and was in the Fulham team that reached the Europa League final not suggest to some of you that possibly, just possibly, you might have been wrong about him while he was here?

Robert N. LiM 6,459 Posted September 23, 2010 I suspect Dickson''s problem was that he arrived in the post-Premiership era, after a time where we''d had some seriously good midfielders - Holt at his best, Safri, Damien Francis, Bentley, etc. Compare him with some of them, and he comes off a little poorly.But the following season our central midfield was once Rossi Jarvis and Michael Spillane.

Tony DaWonderful 35 Posted September 23, 2010 I dont know why keepers spring to mind but Paul Crighton and Graham Benstead were 5h1t in my opinion also Victor Segura and that Dutch lad Rigters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mainline 0 Posted September 23, 2010 Gary Docherty has to be in as the missing CB.He was a shocking excuse of a professional footballer. Clumsy. Slow. Simply a poor footballer. Never rated him and nor did Lambert. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GJP 79 Posted September 23, 2010 And Chris Brown was a pretty good player for us just didn''t get going on the goalscoring side of things. But generally the guy worked hard and played some good football. Unfortunately there were some fans who were far too quick to get on his back.Perhaps a little more encouragement and a little less "5 GAMES WITHOUT A GOAL, BROWN" and then "6 GAMES NOW WITHOUT A GOAL, BROWN" etc etc, would have helped.
