Where is Saul Deeney?

Was doing it off the top of my head - Really need to go back and check some actual squads

In general I would say that Blackman is better than 50% of the players we had under Jewell, Davies, Brown, Gregory and Todd... And even arguably a lot of the dross we had under Clough (and maybe even Burley?)

CB - Dave Walton

CM - Ruben Zadkovic

LM - Laurent Robert

Remove Tealinho from your list you cheeky sod. I'm also tempted to say remove Manel. At least he scored a few goals.

Edit - Can't believe you put Vincent on your list either. He was a perfectly adequate full back.

Tell you what @cheron85, this might be the most edited title in the forum's history if we keep adding names lol

Nah it's fine - the challenge was that I said I could name a starting line up, a backing line up AND a team for them to play against - Hence 3 teams of 11 :D

I just then went a bit OTT

Zadkovic was the name I was reaching for and couldn't remember!

Teale I have much love for but he was bad - Like Bucko when he first came to us - Except Bucko then improved

Manel got 3 in 16 games... Hardly sensational...

Blackman has 1 in 21.

Blackman cost several million, Manel cost nowt.

Blackman has played in a team challenging at the top end or at least in the top half of the division, Manel played for a relegation threatened team.

Cost is not a factor - It's "are they worse"

IMO Manel fits in there

And they are very different players so it isn't a direct comparison

I won't have Ian Dalziel on that list, scored a screamer vs Rotherham in 1982, it's a goal I've always remembered. 40 yards out and near the touchline. (I was 11, he was probably on the edge of the area)
