View Full Version : Your teams dreamteam
Pedro's greasy do
23 Nov 2008, 12:02 PM
OK so a bit of reminiscing about the players I used to watch for Rangers got me thinking about a dreamteam.
So just a few rules.
1. You can only pick players from your lifetime watching football. So no Slim Jim for me.
2. 7 subs are allowed.
Right I'll be back once I work this Rangers dream team! I'm pretty sure it will destroy all before it...

Rangers dream team
------------------------------GK-Goram---------------------------------
RB – Hutton-----------CB—Butcher--------CB-Gough-----------LB- Numan
RM- Laudrup ------CM-Souness--------CM-Gascoigne----------LM—Cooper
-------------------------F-Mols--CF-McCoist----------------------------
Bench
Ferguson
Gattuso
Brown
Robertson
Albertz
Hateley
Klos
I really struggled with that right back position and considered Gary Stevens. Gio and Trevor Steven also deserve a special mention for not making the bench.
I’ve think it is a little bit unbalanced in midfield and I’d be relying on my captain (Souness) to hold it all together. But who do you leave out?
I’ve put Mols in because before he got his injury he was something special and I think he would create loads of goals for McCoist. It was hard to leave out Hateley for him.
Anyway I’m sure I’ll revisit this team a few more times.
Once thing for certain is it would be a joy to watch this team!

This is taken from my time as a supporter as far back as I can remember players wise, even from my youth (I think, I'm not entirly sure who exactly was playing when I was 1 year old.)
Some players I may have missed out, but to me these are my pick and some of my favourites who could even make a starting line up (John Collins anyone?)

Petrov was a good player but he isn't in the calibre of McStay and Lambert is a different kind of central midfielder. he adds balance to the side.

Petrov, for me, at times was a bit like Scott Brown. Always good to have a holding midfielder with an attacking minded player, thats why Robson/Hartley worked last season I think.

From my time...(started really following the team around the 96/97 season) So ihave arounbd 12 seasons of players to choose from albeit with no chance of choosing Greig, Cooper et all.
-------------------Klos-------------------
Hutton-------Amo--------Gough----------Gio
Laudrup------Fergie------Gazza--------Albertz
-------------Ally----------Boyd------------
Subs:
Prso
Boumsong(what he did at his time with rangers was special)
De Boer
Numan
Gattuso (on reputation alone, he really turned special at Milan)
McGregor
Ricksen
Now for the real "dreamteam" of this era of Rangers ;)
--------------------Letizi------------------
Ross-------Svensson------Ehiogu----Vanoli
McCann-----Namouchi---Emerson--Rozental
---------Ostenstad-------Nieto-----------
Subs: Mladenovic, Fetai, Jeffers, Jesper Cristiansen, Sionko, Sebo, Bernard
shocking how we ever pulled any silverware with any of the above donkeys on the squad, save Rozental who could never get fit, but was awesome.

It's funny for me to say this, being a Celtic fan, but coming from a sporting view I would have loved to see a Hutton/Laudrup combination in any team.
Hutton plays amazing in a Scotland shirt (in general I think ANY scottish setup) and I liked Laudrup as a player. I remember I got told I out classed the whole A Team at a local league team when I was younger (I trained in the B team because I was new) because I kept setting up goals, but the boy who latched onto all my passes and crosses was known as Laudrup! :D

Robertson and Laudrup had a great partnership as well.

I reckon my Rangers team would beat that team! :)
Ostenstad! Worst player ever in a Ranger top. I'll never forget his quote. "They're too much pressure at Rangers" :mad:
