OoooMarkWright Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 I saw this on social media and so thought I’d give it a go. You have to pick your all time best Derby team, but you are only allowed to pick ONE player per country. You have to have seen the player play. Here’s my quick effort! GK: Poom (Estonia) DF: Laursen (Den) McGrath (Ire) Carbonari (Arg) Powell (Eng) MF: McMinn (Sco) Asanovic (Croatia) Van Der Laan (Dutch) Eranio (Italy) Att: Saunders (Welsh) Wanchope (Costa Rica). Its harder than you think! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSD Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 GK: Poom (Est) DF: Holmes ( USA) / Moore (Jamaica) Carbonari (Arg) / Craig Forsyth (Sco) MF: Hendrick (Ire) / Eranio (Ita) / Mount (Eng) AT: Wilson (Wales) / Rasiak (Pol) / Wanchope ( Costa Rica) Plenty of 5-4 wins with that team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asanovic is quite possibly the best player I’ve ever seen in a Derby shirt though. I know it was only for one season, but he was outstanding. A better player than Stimac for me, although I loved Igor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millenniumram Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 This is ageist against my generation, we ain’t seen nothing but Scots since 2000. Our last foreign scout probably resigned in 1998 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anon Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 I excluded home nations and Ireland and also players who weren't really foreign, but used the granddad rule to play internationally.

Dimmu Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 I was tempted to go with classic 2-3-5, but changed to more realistic one... Only a slightly more realistic though. Poom Stimac West Carbonari Carsley Hughes Eranio Vydra Wilson Wanchope Martin Chrissy McMartin is about as Scottish as one can be, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duracell Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Brad Jones (AUS) Isak Ssewankambo (SWE) Claude Davis (JAM) Martin Albrechtsen (DEN) Jay McEveley (SCO) Andrejs Pereplotkins (LAT) Connor Doyle (USA) Blessing Kaku (NIG) Laurent Robert (FRA) Gianfanco Labarthe Tomé (PER) Dean Moxey (ENG) Going with a diamond here. With Kaku protecting the back four, Doyle can really express himself behind the dynamic front two of Moxey and Labarthe Tome. The combination of Peruvian flair and Devonshire grit up front will be a lot of opposition defences to handle, especially with McEveley overlapping Robert down the left flank.
