Ramos Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Hello fellow sheep lovers. I know this topic is probably going to be a little against the flow of our current crop of present day topics and its probably something thats been done before. But here goes anyway, I always see threads across boards from time to time about Derbys best ever eleven, so i wanted to do a slightly different take on that and go with your best 11 whilst you have supported Derby.So whether it has been 30 years or 5 years please share if you dare ,the 11 players you think are the best you have seen as a Derby County supporter. Obviously the wiser (Older) you are the more players you have to choose from. Ill begin and I have 16 years of Derby County to go with. It will be interesting to see especially from people who have only supported Derby for 10-20 years how many of our current squad make it in. PoomWisdom Riggott M Johnson Forsyth Hughes IdiakezOsman Commons T. Smith MartinPlayers who have for me narrowly missed out are Seth Johnson, Rasiak, Steve Howard, Kinkladze and Matt Oakley.

davenportram Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 What strikes me about the Cox years is not the likes of Shilton, Wright and Saunders, who we all knew were class but the unexpected quality, 5 of which you have on your list - Williams, Hebberd, McMinn, Callaghan and Goddard - who, while solid earlier in their careers, just seemed to shine at Derby. See also Micklewhite and Gregory. I don't think we have that enough any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r4derby Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 PoomLarsen Stimac Buxton C.PowellEranio Asanovic Hughes KinkladzeSturridge Wanchope a couple of pointers:firstly, this was more a team of some of my favourite players growing up as a Ram.secondly, whilst there have been many decent CB's over the years (as well as Claude Davis 50p head), I lumped for Bucko as the emotional leader alongside the captain. As I write this I remember Paul McGrath played for us in my early years, he rotates with Bucko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramblur Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Boulton Webster Todd McFarland Nish Durban Carlin Gemmill Hector George Hinton Boulton gets the nod because, on the very few occasions he made a mistake,he didn't try to blame others for it. Durban gets the nod over Rioch because I found some of the latter's challenges highly distasteful. If we'd had Dave a little earlier,he'd have waltzed into my midfield.

JoetheRam Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Based on how they played for Derby rather than what they did elsewhere: 1997 onwards.PoomLaursen Stimac Carbonari C. PowellEranio Johnson IdiakezBaianoWanchope Sturridge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
