    I wouldve gave Marc Crosas another season to break into the first team i dont think he was given a decent shot at it and wouldve been good to see how he did with the team we have now.Unfortunately we had a midfield who are all playing out of their skins and it wouldve had to take til a couple got injured for him to get his game it was just whether or not he coulve grabbed his chance and done well...

    Pearson and crosas were given a decent enough run at it but simply werent as good as other players in the team at the time.
    Riordan is just a wee Ned with a shocking attitude. Cant believe the number of votes he has here.

    Juninho wasn't a MON type of player as he usually opted to play a more solid team. Even Lubo didn't get a start in a lot of games. If he was around today then he would maybe have had more than 16 appearences. Not saying he did well when he played but maybe he would have been better with another style of football. The Broto one was interesting as Douglas and Hedman were prone to errors but in one of the games he got a chance, he gave away a goal which didn't help his cause.
    I liked Wallace but he was never going to put Thommo out of the team and Doumbe and Crainey were decent.

    Strachan ruined a lot of those players mentioned. Always loved big Sno always kept it simple. Pearson just galloped with his head down if he had not of been left footed I dont think he would have been signed.

    I remember watching that. It was a screamer in his last game I think? He never really got a chance tho

    i still think that Juarez could have been a great player at celtic had he got more of a chance, i was watching the celtic goals from 2010/11 and his performances and goals were amazing. I remember him being one of the best players on the field against FC Utrecht was it? or maybe it was the euro before that, think it was his debut anyway

    ever understood why we let sheridan go for peanuts then signed murphy for over a million...sheridan was keeping him outta the ireland squad and he had much more poential!

    also, broto as much better than douglas and hedman

    I think Guppy was a decent player, with a brilliant left foot, was just unfortunate for him, that he was competing with alan thompson.
