Quote[/b] ]Otherwise, surely, it's a meaningless exercise, isn't it?  I mean, Phil Whelan played up front a couple of times and was pretty unspeakable... but you wouldn't have him in your worst XI as an attacker, would you?

No because sometimes he did a effective job. Well effective compared to Webb, Richards, Jones, Marney, Darby, Foley et al.

Or maybe that should be...

That is rather worrying isn't it.

Quote[/b] (BoyWonder2 @ Feb. 22 2005,15:18)]That hasn't been stated by the guy that started this thread. Yes that makes sense and based on that Alderton wouldn't be in the team, but I'm going by what the guy that started this thread said. Sorry.

True... but then I quibbled with the guy who started the thread as to the basis on which he set it out.  Is this a list of the eleven worst players since we dropped to Div 3; or is it the "worst SUFC Team"?

The reason I ask that is that, surely, those two things above are most certainly not one and the same...

Yer but Rio Alderton was inexcusably bad and therefore I had to put him in the side. And I was going by what I've seen. I couldn't think of anyone else in central midfield that was that bad. Can you? Bearing in mind I've been watching since the Kingstonian FA Cup match.

O and I'll put Neil Jenkins in my side on the left on midfield.

ORM will not be happy about that and nor will anybody on here. Maher is class. Nuff said!

no hes not:p

Would that be Bombhead, current England international?

 

[BoyWonder2]

Come off it. Surely you can't think Maher is one of the worst central midfielders we have had since we dropped into this division? He vision, range of passing, work rate, grit, determination etc are top notch. We are a better side with Maher in it than when he is missing. Maher was the best player at Cardiff for us.

The very same. His not an England international. He represents the National Team XI anyways

No one has been as bad in midfield as Rio Alderton; but people who have had stinkers since then?

Not many to choose from, but I'll go for Ian Selley. For someone of such supposed skill, he consistently flattered to deceive, and we always looked rather lightweight with him in midfield.

Harsh, maybe - but the only other alternative is (as a midfielder) Lewis Hunt... who is as poor a midfielder as he is talented a right back, IMHO.

Since I don't want Lewis to go in the worst XI, that's why I've gone for Selley.

Yes, Paul.  He was cack. And I did at least apologise for including him...

 

[royceisagod]

I can see what your getting at but I always rated Ian Selley as a player. Him and Maher in the middle looked very good. Both had a fantastic range of passing. And I couldn't put Hunt in because it would be harsh having him in the Worst SUFC XI when his been outstanding this season.

If you were basing it on Maher's performances only in the period of 97-99, there would be a strong case for including him in thie side... He was diabolical back then...

Well everyone is entitled to their opinion but yours is wrong

But the turnaround in form since then has been nothing short of spectacular.

Hmm... clearly you didn't go to the Col Ewe game away, in which - to reverse entirely what you're saying - Kevin Maher gave (IMHO) the finest performance by someone in a Southend shirt in a decade. He was magnificent that day.
