StevenL 0 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Emre's alright.Not in the top 10, not in the bottom 10 which is why he hasn't been mentioned in this thread. Rossi should be in the top 10, in terms of calibre of player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toonpack 6796 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 If you're still out there Leazes what was Benny Arentoft like?.....one of the 10 best?...... As an aside. My first ever "favourite" Newcastle player aided hugely by the fact my first Newcastle subbuteo team (around that time) had one figure thats hair hadn't been painted and so was instantly blonde Benny.

Toonpack 6796 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 The top ten foreign turkeys: Luque Marclino Dumas Viana Anderson Fumaca Boumsong Xisco Babayaro Cordone I'm sure there are many more that could make this list Kluivert Guivarc'h Bassedas Tomasson Sadly miss-used (or under-rated) by us, as his later career showed.

Not suited to the English game, I think. Rather weak player, lacking any real pace. In Italy it's easier to get away with that. Intelligent player, but not enough to compensate in England.

Ayatollah Hermione 12755 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 I finally saw that goal where Shearer steals the ball off Maric before he's about to shoot. I think it's against Derby and it's hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigAl 0 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 (edited) The best if you are talking about pure ability is Ginola. Edited October 28, 2011 by BigAl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TicTacWoe 0 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 (edited) Hottiger was quite good. Bernard should definitely be in there. There's one or two players I literally cannot remember how good/shit they were now (Domi/Goma/Dabizas). I like N'Zogbia but was underused at times while here. Never thought much of Asprilla in the league, scored very few goals. Edited October 28, 2011 by TicTacWoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TicTacWoe 0 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 This may be controversial, but I'd put Martins ahead of Asprilla... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barney 0 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Domi was good. Got our money's worth with Dabizas. Both scored against the tramps too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TicTacWoe 0 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 (edited) Domi was good. Got our money's worth with Dabizas. Both scored against the tramps too. Didn't Domi go a bit mental thinking the world was going to end or something? I know the Argentina keeper did and retired for a while because of it.

Neither have done much since leaving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OTF 6134 Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Jonas would be ahead of N'Zogbia in terms of his input and value. Has already clocked up 113 games for us in just over three season, and that will continue to grow as he's rarely injured. Never sulks, always has a great attitude and despite most considering him a bit of a turkey in front of goals he's only scored 1 less goal than N'Zogbia and has five games up his sleeve to draw himself level. Bernard tarnished his own image with his second 'stint' here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
