Who should we have never sold?

We'd of probably finished top 6 in 1993/94 if phillips and Falconer hadnt been sold. Kernaghan soon followed but we got more for him than we did for Mowbray!
 
Morrison / Cattermole and Brunt

Morrison was probably the standout one when you look at his career. He also looked half decent with us.

I think it's been publicly said that Cattermole was a mistake. The genuine census is that he was only sold due to 'off field' activities. To replace him with perma crock Digard.

We had absolutely no fight or grit in that midfield. Cattermole would have given us that. He also went on to have a great career despite 'apparent' issues.
 
Queudrue.
Was talking to Ray Parlour a few weeks ago at a dinner. Ray really rated him and the squad loved him but he said McLaren hated him and couldn’t wait to get rid of him. He was laughing about how sh1t Pogatetz was at left back when he first replaced him in the team and was no where near Franks level. He always performed on match day but was just lazy in training and would light a cigar after every session and Mclaren used to go mad. Makes sense why he didn’t play much after he left us if he didn’t put the effort in.

Patrick Bamford’s mine, criminal. Considering how much he wanted to be here as well. Anyone with half a brain could see he was our best footballer.

Here’s a different one: Woodgate to Spurs.

Wasn’t it Cattermole that permacrocked Digard aswell?

I thought it must have been a personal thing with McClaren as Pogatetz was a decent enough centre half but he was nowhere near Queudrue's level at LB. He was a superb LB for us when you look back. He might have been lazy in training but I always thought he was good grafter on matchday.
