NurembergVillan Posted December 25, 2016 Moderator Share Posted December 25, 2016 I enjoyed making the VT advent calendar thread, and Limpid suggested to make a 12 Days of Crapness to serve as an antidote to some of the superb names listed as the best for each squad number. My self-inflicted rules on this one are to choose a player for each position and one substitute, completing the 12 Days of Crapness. I'll start in goal, and to be honest I'll do well to find anyone worse than this scruffy bastard. Jesus wept... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would get my vote, not only for that goal but because he had absolutely no bottle whatsoever which is incompatible with being a keeper. Besides Gabor Kiraly was only on loan if I recall correctly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Enckelman was never that bad from what I remember but of course, he'll always be remembered for one reason, in a Villa shirt anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HanoiVillan Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Enckleman for me too. Kiraly has had a weird career, still playing now and represented Hungary in the Euros this year I believe. He had actually played pretty well before he joined us, and then he was absolutely dreadful for us. But Enckleman wins it for that goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NurembergVillan Posted December 25, 2016 Author Moderator Share Posted December 25, 2016 Enckelman was probably worse, but this tramp is wearing FOUR different brands. Four! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 I don't think we have had any genuinely awful goalkeepers. I am confident that we have had some crackers in the outfield positions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in my opinion, I was only 8 years old when he joined us and 13 years old when he left, he was decent. He played 52 times for our first team according to Wikipedia that's an achievement in itself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vreitti Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 I'm sorry, but this just wrong. Kiraly is a legend, for those pants alone, nevermind his goalkeeping skills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A very weak goalkeeper. That GT season was up there for the very worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 As a number two Enckleman wasn't all that bad, he was pretty decent when he stepped in in place of the Scheimicheal for a run of games in the 2000-2001 season, if I remember correctly. However the following season as a number 1 was an utter car crash, aside from letting in some poor goals you had those two unforgivable errors in both games against Blues. I actually thought his replacement, Tommy Sorensen, was an awful keeper for us too but Enckleman really stands out based on the errors he made.
