Tricky one as we have had so many outstanding ones.

Most disapointing probably Laurent Blanc as had such a reputation

Jones is just well Jones and Bailly was a lunatic.

Jones had potential but turned shit with his injuries. Most of the hatred for him is wanting to stick around like a bad smell when he should have been binned a while ago.

Bailey had his moments too. Thought when fit he was a decent defender . In terms of performance on the pitch, Harry Maguire .

He’s a fraud. He’s played decent this season but we have still been shit at the back conceding goals. It’s not all down to him . But look at the assurance that varane played with against the scousers. Good defenders improve the whole back line.

Slabhead is still slow and risky on the ball. He still is susceptible to a mistake. He’s been the best out of a bad bunch this season of the ones who have played. So he’s better than lindelof and evans. Which isn’t saying much.

Lindelof comes a close second. For a defender he’s alright on the ball, but when he comes to actually defending I’ve never seen a player wilt so much to pressure

We signed him aged 35 which is madness for the PL.

Frogson had a tendancy to go for players who had caused problems for the team at some point in the past .. explains owen.

Bailly.

Played like he’d won a ‘be a footballer for a day’ competition.


Though wasn’t committed enough to see out the full day.

Blanc was the crappest imo…but also the best at his peak.

The least talented at their peak would probably be May.

Silvestre had a good spell at centre half imo.

And he was much better at that than at left back. Pruner though, £#%&!ing hell

I played against David May in a tournament and he was immense

I’d plump for Eric B I’m afraid

Loads of potential but….
