I am a Banana 0 Posted February 13, 2011 ...Were You Most Like When You Played?? I would have to be surman. I was very poor in the air and never went up for headers. I was also very weak in the tackle and avoided tackles whenever possible. I was the type who liked to get the ball on the ground and pass it about and as a ef tfooter occasionally went down thhe line to whip in a cross. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brendo 0 Posted February 13, 2011 Jon Parkin for me. Massive fat bastard who just shoves defenders away, before powering a shot well over the bar! [:)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Excited Canary 19 Posted February 13, 2011 Probably Whitbread, probably a bit lightweight, but decent in the air and I''ve got pretty good distrubution and I''m a CB....and never score;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Howson is now! 0 Posted February 13, 2011 Marc Tierney. Full back that loves a tackle, could play at centre back and wasn''t first choice [:D] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Morisons Prozac 0 Posted February 13, 2011 Probably Fox. Not one for a tackle but have a large range of passing ability and try a few long range efforts although not always quite on target. [;)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AJ 1,229 Posted February 14, 2011 I wouldn''t compare myself to any current city players, although I''d probably say I''m more like McDonalds, fast and pacey, not very strong but can do the business [;)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Young One 0 Posted February 14, 2011 Thought the post was titled, "Which current city player.." Anyway I,d have to be Drury, bow legged and liked to have a long break from work, and scores once every five yrs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Norfolk Mustard 94 Posted February 14, 2011 There is no current NCFC player anything like my previous playing style. That means if I was 18 to 30 nowadays I really would be able to ''offer something different''. Hey-Ho what a shame... Physically like Russell Martin, I played wide right; able to cut in and shoot with a very good left foot. Never had the engine to go box-to-box so reverted to central back four and enjoyed playing there.PS: Love the response from Planet X! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Proper Charlie 0 Posted February 14, 2011 Grant Holt for me, 6ft 2, old fashioned centre forward, hardly ever one anything in the air ( a bit of a 50 pence head !) but loved the argy bargy part of it and used to get plenty of free kicks. Unfortunately my eye for goal wasn''t as good as his! Although I did have 2 profilic seasons as top scorer (when I used to be able to run). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jacko 0 Posted February 14, 2011 John Ruddy because we both seem to sprint wildly off our line. The difference is Ruddy is actually a good goalkeeper and has the sense to only do this when celebrating a goal. I tend to actually do this in open play! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lambo 0 Posted February 14, 2011 Wes Hoolahan, except i''m ridiculously right footed, I''m only ever effective in a team playing his type of role, not quite quick enough or defensive enough to be a wideman, too small and lightweight to play CM. However my eye for a throughball is pretty decent if I do say so myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ryan1992 0 Posted February 14, 2011 I''m useless at playing footy, never played for a team (except the school side for 2 years), BUT, I am fairly good at passing and have good vision to pick out a pass (unfortunately they don''t always work out how I planned it!), so I''d probably say Fox. I''m short, and so hopeless in the air (get laughed at if I even attempt a header!), and am not brilliant in the tackle (I used to shy away from them, but now i''ll try and get ''stuck in''!), but as I said, i like to pass it round, so Fox for me! (Coincidently he has turned into one of favourite City players recently, he was ace vs Reading with his passing) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fr. Chewy Louie 137 Posted February 15, 2011 Still playing, and of the current crop I''m probably a Surman (apart from being right-footed). Will take set pieces, have a decent touch and a little skill, decent shot and passing, prepared to shoot. Also useless in the air and not very quick.Of former players, I always wanted to be like Ian Crook. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bradwell Yellow 0 Posted February 16, 2011 Whenever i played full back i was another version of Michael Nelson. Liked to attack set pieces (Never got anywhere though) and got stuck in. Either i won the ball or i brought them down. Never got booked so did something right!John Ruddy when i play in goal. A bit haphazard with crosses as i''m not the tallest in the world so it''s quite tough. But shot stopping was usually better than crosses! Plus no matter how loud i shouted no bugger would listen to me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
