"Worst ever line ups"

Name your clubs worst ever line up.

Here's mine: Man Utd

---------------------------Taibi-------------------------

Parker-----------C.Casper---------Blanc----------Prunier-


B.Thornley--------N.Webb--------K.Poborsky------D.Wallace


-----------------Cruyff----------Forlan------------------


(Hope this comes out ok :)

The signing of Jordi Cruyff also came as a shock to me, seeing that it WAS Alex Ferguson in-charge of the club at the time. While he did have some ability, it must be said; he still wasn't quite all he was made out to be, as the son of the great Dutch-legend `Johann Cruyff´.

If anything, he was only really bought on the 'word' of what he could do, just because of who he was. (So, you never know - with all the hype around him, Fergie really COULD be after Wayne Rooney in the summer! ;) )

Then again, he didn't earn those few international caps for nothing...
And he was always pretty good in Championship Manager....
Perhaps, if only he was given more time and games to play?

Paul Parker can't have been that bad at right-back, can he?
After all, he did make it as an England international, didn't he...
(Granted; perhaps not one of the "better" options for that level)

And, while Blanc look like quite the disaster at the back during his first few months in the post-Stam era, after time, we did find his experience quite vital to our teams backline, and he really helped some of the younger players coming through. He may've also been very slow, but he did make one-or-two geat tackles in a couple of Arsénal games, if I remember correctly...

And I, also, would like to nominate Kevin Pilkington for the No.1 jersey. Taibi, Bosnich and co. all made mistakes, but they still had some abillity in their play. However, no matter who Pilkington played for - even in the lower divisions! - he just didn't seem to have a single-ounce!

Kaba diawara

I'm a replace Poborsky with Darren Ferguson, who really did blow, and replace Taibi with Pilkington.

Taibi did make some stupid mistakes, but he is incredibly agile and adventurous. At least he tried, unlike Pilkington, who was just incompetent and useless.

trying to think of a worst ever line up for england......

to be honest, any one bad, i just forget or dishonour them of ever being a gooner.

however:
john lukic, remi guard, nelson vivas and numerous strikers were pretty crap.

Well, the way I see it is both are young and still have time to develop. Bellion for me is a winger come striker, but Forlan is a striker who has scored some decent goals for us but also missed at crucial times.

Looking back at the striker's we have had in the past, I couldn't think of anyone worser than him.

Forlan aint that bad.

Not as bad as Bellion anyway.

Actually both are crap.
