    Ok Evo - from my point he was excellent for 60 mins and gives the oppo plenty to think about.

    Palmer is anything but average. Love the way he and O’Hare combine together. Not everything he does works but he’s always trying to play that pass and be that game changer. I love seeing him on the pitch.

    'he's Danish, he only cost 19 million Krone, we think he's f....g brilliant, Torpyyyyyyyy' Nice familiar ring with a few words changed :)

    Exactly what I am suggesting and in the modern game, left midfield would be an ideal position for Hunt. We'll never know in this highly theoretical team and of course there will be thousands of different opinions!

    So you're selecting Gibson as your best ever forward - ahead of Gyo? That's ok as it's impossible to prove across different eras and purely an opinion. Albeit as interesting opinion as usual. I know who I would have leading the line, Gyo is the most 'unplayable' player for defenders I have...

    Read the post. I stated with Vik and Hamer we had 2 first class players with the ability to change games. Complete game changers and they don''t come along very often. Without those 2 guys we would not have been near the play offs. It's not a disservice to any other player - one of the key...

    Wallace was my childhood hero who I had the pleasure to meet last year but I still would place Vik above him in my all time. Very different players in every sense. Hamer. I have seen few players in our team who could single handedly drive forward and change the direction of games. Steve...

    I guess you are referring to the play off final? If so that's complete nonsense and you could not be more wrong - no further debate required. Haters going to hate I guess for some unknown reason. We have some weird fans.

    because he was fucking brilliant Sloth and drove us nearly single handedly with Vik to being 1 kick away from the Prem. It's not even a debate in my book.

    I hear you Cally and it's completely subjective, Powell was just before my time as well! McGrath was a destroyer but very limited on the ball - not saying he wasn't brilliant at what he did but he didn't have the all round game. McAllister - came with a huge price tag for the day (the biggest...

    In terms of a 3 man midfield I'd go with Hamer, Boateng, Hunt. That's assuming a 4-3-3. I just think Hamer has that special factor as a true 8. Completely realise that very good arguments could me made for other players with very different qualities - just my opinion. Forwards love Dublin...

    you'd say the same about Robins as manager - most would disagree. game of opinions.

    Hamer and Gyokeres would make it into my all time CCFC team if that's a criteria for being a legend - and before I'm accused of being someone who only started watching us in the L1 days - my first match was in 1981!

    My preference would be for COH to sign a new contract and be 100% in line with our top earner. I would be surprised if this hasn't been offered. His agent's preference might be for COH to leave for free in the summer - or alternatively COH may want to consider his options in May (who knows...

    A couple of years later Kevin Drinkell was hobbling into Highfield Road for £900k, pretty much £200k per goal during his time with us. Loved JS but was never convinced by his record in the transfer market.

    'Does it feel good to win 6-2?' 'Happy to be back on the pitch after 12 months?' How the f..k are you supposed to respond to this? I can only imagine what MR feels when he gets these nonsense questions every week. We need questions that might result in us finding out something interesting...

    Match Thread Coventry City v Oxford United - FA CUP 3RD ROUND - 6th January 12:30

    I see your point Sick Boy and agree that by the age of 22 most players who go onto great things are already at that level. But it's complex conditional on rate of development, injuries, fitting into the make up of the team and opportunity. There are players who have made it after the age of 22...

    Match Thread Coventry City v Oxford United - FA CUP 3RD ROUND - 6th January 12:30

    You focus a lot on seemingly wanting certain players to be not good enough for us based on limited knowledge - and once you arrive at that conclusion always look at to slate that player for whatever they do after that. To the point where you seem happier when that player doesn't perform -...
