Andy Townsend.

Good call Dave.  Had it all as a midfielder (could tackle, was good on the ball, got forward well and scored goals) and was a real leader.

Gavin McCann.


Nah, Martin Laursen. For his leadership as much as anything. There was a point where I felt he sort of inspired the other players just by being there.

Was just about to come on and say AT. Probably the most complete midfielder we've had for, well a long time. Would've sorted this rabble out, if only.

Milner. 

We need an engine.

Milner is a decent player but nothing more nothing less. Still we could do with him.

In view of where our current problems lie, then I'd say McGrath or Laursen but I'd also like to see a 90's David Platt back again. (Not the current David Platt as he seems like a right arse)

Steve Staunton. Could do us a job at left back, centre back or even defensive midfield. Winner.

Just to throw his name in really, but a fit Mark Delaney.
