All Time Worst XI

[cdbearsfan]

As far as I can remember, Moreira only played twice for us, conceded one goal and saving a penalty. He may well be a terrible goalkeeper,  but I don't think we had sufficient evidence based solely on his Villa career.

Do you remember the pre match warm up video, where he didn't make a single save? :oD

I've said before that I think it's harsh to include any player that wasn't good enough, and instead include players that should have been good enough but couldn't be arsed often enough. Gestede was never a top flight player, we were the ones stupid enough to sign him to replace Benteke. I never remember thinking Gestede wasn't trying his best, plus the stuff he did helping the homeless gives him bonus points.
Although Gestede did turn more into McCormack after leaving us.

McCormack is the the perfect example of a player that should be listed. Was 30, rattled goals in for fun at that level, don't think he even managed another 50 games in the rest of his career once he was getting our wages.

So you are selecting a poor value for money XI; mine is based on ineptitude. Bowery was simply very, very bad.

Not vfm but how to close their best ability did they show with us. Lansbury didn't cost much but had far more ability than we saw on a regular basis. Bree wasn't very good but probably played pretty close to as well as he could. Lansbury would be a contendor for my worst XI and Bree wouldn't.

Bowery was a low-risk signing and should have stayed in the lower divisions.

Having said that, he played a regular part in us staying up in his first season.
