admira Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Come January, 4 of the all time top 8 capped players for England will have either played for or managed Derby. Looking at the list, I don’t think any other club can say that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millenniumram Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Top 2 have played for us as well. Mental really when you think about it, the massive names that have been involved with us in recent years. Surreal looking at that list. There’s a bizzare pub question in there somewhere as well- What team did England legends Peter Shilton, Ashley Cole and Wayne Rooney all play for?

JfR Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 By January, only two clubs can say they've had 3 different players from that list play for them*, Manchester United and us, so the biggest club in the world and Manchester United. *(West Ham also had three on their books in Moore, Lampard and Shilton, but Shilton never actually played for them) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost signed according to Clough, till he had a last minute panic and owned up to West Ham we'd been chasing him for weeks and he hadn't let on .

That would’ve been something... so many players we’ve nearly signed. Actually got the rooney one over the line though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
