    KT and Petrov purely because if we added those two types of players to the team in their positions we’d go to a new level

    Trying my best not to go with the obvious, aka King Henrik, but am kidding myself on. 100% it's Henrik for me.

    My old man has seen most of the greats in his time but he's said Di Canio. Surprised me I must say.

    I’d love to see a John Collins in this team. McGrain, McStay & Larsson are too obvious. Oh Lambert would be a gift in this side as well.

    Yet we have conceded the least amount of goals. I totally get what your saying and it may seem obvious but the media play a huge part in casting crisis on our club/defence. Starfelt has ropey moments but I think he is decent overall. CCV is faultless as is Ralston. Jullien and Welsh, Taylor and Scales and it’s not as bad as made out.

    Ano mate 3 less than the huns but when watching us it's obvious it's our biggest weak area.

    I fear the defence more in Europe but we have won three out of four last few games.

    We did concede the most in the Europa league to be fair

    Exactly why I fear the defence in Europe. Though We were only getting this side together when we conceded a lot of Euro goals.

    Van Dijk is a good shout. Would give us that aerial ability we lack at set pieces for and against us and could score a free kick as well, which we miss. Must be some 6ft5 centre half out there that's capable of playing a 10 yard pass as well that could partner CCV.

    Jinky for the skill and entertainment, Henrick for style and goals.
    Maybe John Clark for his solidity in defence.

    A peak Roy Keane would take this current group up several levels. That would be my answer as well if we’re disregarding the obvious.

    Amazing how he stayed under the radar for so long. I still remember being at the game where he trapped the ball with his * on the left wing.

    He was coveted by the eventual champions of Europe when at St Etienne, he was under our radar but definitely not within Europe.

    Based of what I've heard: Bobby Lennox
