Thread: How Many

  1. #1

    How Many

    How many of the current squad would get into the ‘78 side and who would they replace?
    Godden, Batson, Statham, Cantello, Wile, Robertson, T Brown, Robson, Cunningham, Regis, Johnston.
    In my view none of them

    Is this a serious question? 😆😆😆😆


    I’m not sure anyone from the last 35years is fit to replace any of these.

    The only ones that would come close as back ups would for me be........

    Ben Foster

    G Mac

    Olsson

    Mulumbu

    Brunt

    Gera

    Odemwingie

    Berahino for a very short period

    Lukaku

    Kevin Phillips.

    I repeat though......NONE would feature in a 1978 to 1981 Albion first eleven.

    None of them apart from Super Kev but even he’d be on the bench using that lineup as a reference. Was this question a joke?

    So how many of our current squad would even get into the last promotion sqaud Di Matteo assembled.

    He signed Odemwingie i believe and then i think we had Carson/ Myhill , Dawson, Dorrans, Mulumbu, Morrision, Brunt, Clement, Reid, Olsson, Scharner, Robinson, Greening and did we have Koren as well.

    Either way not too many our current squad would displace those
