I think my team has some potential for comical errors.

― jel -- (jel), Saturday, 7 May 2005 15:42 (twenty-one years ago)

There's a dirth of right-backs (I couldn't include Neville)

― jel -- (jel), Saturday, 7 May 2005 15:44 (twenty-one years ago)

SWP plays on the right, Jel.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Saturday, 7 May 2005 15:44 (twenty-one years ago)

Good, good, that's what I thought.

― jel -- (jel), Saturday, 7 May 2005 15:46 (twenty-one years ago)

Stephen Kelly looks pretty promising - I'm glad you included him Jel.

― weasel diesel (K1l14n), Saturday, 7 May 2005 21:22 (twenty-one years ago)

Don't know about King (lots of praise, capped by England, mentioned a few times here already), but those are good choices. I think you're right about Bergkamp-juniour too, he could be a real star.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Saturday, 7 May 2005 21:48 (twenty-one years ago)

Loads of weasel's unsung heroes have featured in my Fantasy Football team at one point or another so they are sung by me at least. Alan Stubbs was one of the players I was genuinely upset at seeing leave Celtic, and I'm glad he's doing so well at Everton.

Cole's a good call - I was thinking some weeks ago that he still looks one of the best English strikers around.
