MasterVillan Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 Well since I’ve been supporting villa ( so I’ve left out a few greats) It would be (for our current system) -McGrath -Barry -Yorke theres many others I’d love to add, laursen, Daley, Taylor, Staunton, etc. but they’d be my three.

PaulC Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 On 28/06/2022 at 15:19, John said: That brings to mind a couple of quotes from Tommy Docherty on his passes, which he thought should be labelled "To whom it may concern" , on his ball control, "This boy can trap a ball further than I could kick it" and his overall opinion, of him "Tony Hateley had it all. The only thing he lacked was ability". That said, he might just have kept us up in 1966/67, had the board not accepted £100,000 for him in October (with 5 goals already scored for us, following 28 the previous season) from you guessed it, Tommy Docherty. He played against us for Blues in a game we won 1-0 through a Dave Simmons goal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El-Reacho Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 As a slight alternative to this - which three former players would you sign in real time? As in current players not historical ones. Grealish is obviously a shoe-in. Maybe Idrissa Gueye or Vertout? Gollini? Adama Traore? Shows our current trajectory when there's barely three players we've sold recently that we'd have back.

Yes, our former captain could come here from Citeh on loan (as we would probably get more minutes coming off our bench this season, than he will coming off their one), Gueye is the obvious one (but, I think he would be kicking and screaming at the very idea) and Snake (we need someone to give the toilets inside the ground a good deep clean and he's just the man for the job (no gloves provided)...

paul514 Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 In their prime, and players I saw play for us my shortlist would be (not including OAP's we signed so no Ginola/Pires/Schmeichel/Terry etc).... Mellberg, Laursen, Alan Wright, Barry, Milner, Grealish, Merson, Angel, Taylor, Benteke, Ugo The three I would pick out of them would be...... Grealish, Milner, Laursen.... Martinez Carlos/Laursen Cash Digne Kamara/Barry Milner Buendia Grealish Ings I'd go with that and look to buy a striker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpTheVilla26 Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 (edited) I'll base this on who I've seen play live and who I think would elevate this team to the next level in their prime... Gareth Barry, Dwight Yorke, Paul McGrath. Martinez, Cash, Carlos, McGrath, Digne, Kamara, Barry, Ramsey, Coutinho, Buendia, Yorke. That team would stroll into the top 4.
