Which one player ... 14:54 - Dec 8 with 1860 views

.. from the past say 50 years would you want in the team today?

I might opt for Ted MacDougall. Lethal in the box and converted a good number of chances.

Gabriel Batistuta for me

Poll:

Who would you want to save this season Pellegrino or Adkins

Just to clarify, was it any player or ex Saints?

Probably loads more, but any from:

Shilts or Niemi
Fonte and VvD
Steve Williams
MLT
David Armstrong
Mane / Channon
Shearer / Phillips / Ings

We would probably end up with:

Woods
Caulker
Todd
Wootton
Bleidelis
Kanchelskis (the Saints, not Man U version)
Ali Dia

Can add Paine, Ron Davies, Keegan, Mark Wright, Timmy Flowers, Pahars, Lambert & Case

And I mean i'd even probably take Killer, Oakley, Bridge, Beattie and Monkou instead of our current crop of mediocre crap.

Though of course the only possible correct answer is Cosmo Sarli

Trouble is, game's moved on so much in terms of fitness & athleticism that players from 30 or 40 years ago probably couldn't hack it in today's PL. Even goalkeepers would be lost if they were expected to play out from the back.

For that reason I'd probably go for Mane or VVD.

Poll:

Where do you hope to see Salisu start (OK, I know we haven't seen him yet)?

Ron Davies - I never saw him play, but I hear constantly about his prowess in the air. Maybe someone who could actually get on the end of JWP's corners? (doesn't need to be fit in terms of modern game standards, just float up and nod them in)

Mane - I loved watching him play for Saints and that Villa hattrick will long live in the memory and now he's even better!

Bridge - Maybe an usual choice, but he was brilliant at left back under Strachan

Wanyama - The Saints version

And you said one player, so I'll go for the one I've never seen as we need pure goal scoring prowess, so Ron Davies.
