It's a tough call but that's my team, Mendi (didn't play enough), Adama (only did it for 6 months, but what a 6 months), Friend (god he was slow in the prem) and JimmyFH (no reason other than Viduka was better and Nemeth was under rated) missed out by a bees d*ck

You can have 4 subs and a manager.

I'll go with:

I just wish I'd seen Clough.
 
Some possible snakes in there, who I was disappointed in the way they left. But they were favourites when they played.

-----------------------Schwarzer---------------------

---------------Festa---Ehiogu---Pogatetz-----------

------------------------Viduka----------------------

Subs from:

Quedrue
Luke Young
Boksic
Zenden
Emerson
Carbone
Traore
Merson
Stuani

Manager:
Me, or Robson.

*edit, I've had to drop Merson to the bench. His appearances on Soccer Saturday are just too horrific.
I'd go with most of these, not for total ability but how much I liked them.
I'd replace Ramirez for Emmerson, and maybe Mogga and Pally for Pog and Festa.
 
A player not mentioned and rarely gets talked about is Dean Gordon. Was a quality full back before his injury. 900k from palace. Was an absolute snip. Rocked up playing for Thornaby a few years ago. Top lad.
 
No mention for Tuncay and Randolph who was immense. I also thought Carbone was a top draw player. Unbelievable technique. Ince, great player for us, player of the year twice i think. Barmby mint, Doriva so overrated. We were so spoilt. Mind you we’ve had so many quality players over the years there’s too many to mention. I wish we could live those days again. Juninho is my number one followed by Merson. The two best Iv seen pull on our shirt. Viduka the best cf Iv seen for us. Was worth the ticket price every week. He literally took the pi** out of defenders.
