They love Sidwell 1st this year and 2nd last. He's good but is he that good?
Soares 18th? Most Palace fans I know prefer the omitted Watson.
Also if Trundle wasn't some sort of minor celebrity would he be rated so high

[Neo¹]

Im shocked and appauled that Nathan Clarke was only ranked 43! :eek:

























:rolleyes:

[The Potter]

Really! Why?

[RichardL]

Why is Nugent 6th? He's been rubbish this season.

[RichardL]

it is clearly possible to stutter on a message board.

Hey that looks like my list!

Despite Trundle being something of a show pony now and again - he is damn good striker for the Jacks.

He's lost a lot of weight is looking much fitter than ever.

They are pretty much screwed when he is out injured (out again sadly :()

No Sam Ricketts and Willy Gueret is a bit sad - but those guys are easily in the top 100.

[The Potter]

Richard you don't like Nugent we get it. I think he's been rather ill this season so been given some slack.

I deny everything!

[RichardL]

Richard you don't like Nugent we get it. I think he's been rather ill this season so been given some slack.
I don't really have a strong opinion of him either way - I just can't see what he's achieved this season to be regarded as the sixth best player.

ps I see someone editted out the multiple posts caused when bigsoccer was having another if its sticky spells.

sam ricketts is crap, how does he play for wales?

sadly i repeated the above sentiment whilst watching wales at swanseas new ground and had every head turn and stare menicingly at me. i shut up

I totally agree with you that Tom Soares is no where near as good as Watson. Soares drives us all nuts with his off and on play and sometimes poor passing while Watson has been a model of consistency. You would get a lot of argument that Fitz Hall is a better CD than Darren Ward is as well, though I would disagree with that one. Some of the choices on this list are odd, as are the omissions.

I am shocked by this rankings:D
