I know some of you, like myself, have a morbid fascination with old(ish) random Premier League mediocrities such as EIKE IMMEL, JOHN EBRELL, JEREMY GOSS, LARS LEESE, ERIC "SWEATBAND ICON" YOUNG, PAULO FUTRE, JAMIE POLLOCK, STEVE OGRIZOVIC, JOHN "FRICKIN'" SALAKO, PHILEMON MASINGA, PREKI*, etc. I could go on forever. In fact, I think I will do that in this thread.

Let us all reminisce about these fantastic football icons that were so mediocre/sh1t, yet so fantastic! Share your most obscure dream teams with the masses! Brag about your Paul Heald tattoo! Preferrably nineties Premier League players, but it is also fitting to use this thread to discuss modern day legends such as the former Rovers hero BRUNO BERNER.

*=Sorry for the caps lock, but lower case letters simply don't do these legends justice.

Wasn't Daryl Sutch once a target for Kenny pre Sutton?

Norwich did have a host of them (Ian Cook anyone?), but Arsenal's Ian Selley always sticks in my mind. And Jostein Flo.

NII LAMPTEY

And people say Michael Jackson was f**ked up. He was, apparently, a wonderful player though.

You know what, a lot of those players mysteriously caught my imagination.

I really admired bargain, underrated, no fuss but skilful/effective players, so I respected guys like Kachloul, Schemmel and Pahars.
