rog of the rovers Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Friedel Berg - Nelsen - Samba Emerton - Tugay - N'Zonzi - Pedersen Yakubu - Santa Cruz - McCarthy J.Jones, Gestede, Ooijer, Martin Olsson, Filan, Roberts, McCarthy Formation is a bit gung ho, but this would be my 18! Based on Rovers achievements. Career wise Friedel Salgado - Berg - Nelsen - Babbel Emerton - Tugay - D.Baggio - Djorkaeff Yorke, Santa Cruz Ooijer, Yakubu, Hakan Sukur, N'Zonzi, Neill, McCarthy, Nuno Gomes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt83 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 A lot of names that seem to reoccur are nelsen, samba, Salgado, pedersen, emerton, n'zonzi, ooijer. If I'm not mistaken all of those players were either driven out or sold by Steve Kean. To think what that arsehole inherited and what he left us with. If only we could see what he was trying to do was his and sky sports line. Wheh I saw this I thought it was a great upbeat positive thread where I could reminisce about great players. But ultimate has only reminded me of the cretin that started this downfall to where we find ourselves today. Oh well it was nice not to remember the current hell for an hour or so.

roverstdt Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 If I was to pick Rovers Galatico Team I would go with: -----------Friedel------- Salgado--Babbell--Berg--Givet -------N'Zonzi---Tugay ---------Djorkaeff-------- ---McCarthy--Santa Cruz---Yorke That team is based off what they achieved and reputation.

Oldgregg86 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Forgot about suker and basturk. Both great players. Suker was incredibly at either euro 96 or WC 98 . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for me, I've no rose tinted specs, I said it then and I'll say it now, Tugay was resposibile for as many conceded as scored..

Sir, if you cannot appreciate the subtle nuances of Tugay Kerimoglu in the centre of midfield, then you are an arse and clueless about football. No point in debating this with you on this, it's a given, like how the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What did we win with Tugay in midfield? Feck all. Theres a reason he remained at rovers you know.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt83 Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Tugay may have got caught in possession a few times towards the end but I reckon for every goal conceded opportunity he created 20 opportunities at the other end. The ability to pick the ball off the centre halves, ping the ball across the length and width of the pitch to whoevers boot he desired. His vision and sublime talent was a joy to behold. For me hands down 2nd best player I've ever seen behind only Shearer in a rovers shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
