Jos Valgaeren
Stephen Crainey

These are players in 01/02 to have made more than 10 league appearances. At least 8 but maybe 9 or 10 of those players at their best would walk into our present team. Only position without debate would be Gordon instead of Douglas in goal. Simunovic possibly if he keeps improving but probably not yet. Sinclair instead of Thompson but close. Dembele has makings of a top player but as yet might not even get the nod ahead of Hartson. Tierney also worth a mention but only because MON's teams always struggled for a natural left back although that was largely negated by playing a back three

Has he spoken yet?
BR: Then the referee absolutely takes the points away from us. I’ve seen some bad decisions since I’ve been up here but that is the worst.

BR: The ref was right in front of it and there was clearly no contact. You actually see Erik move out of the way and the boy falls.

BR: It was an embarrassing decision at this level

BR: The referee lost control in the last period of the game which led to that situation and the sending off, it was very poor officiating
He also used the words "blatant cheating" and I still think he was including Robertson (along with the diving, cheating scrote Schalk) in that regard.
Definetly was. Started talking about the officials then briefly mentioned the player/incident then said it was 'blatant cheating'.

I'm sure he was talking about all involved.

https://streamable.com/b5c6w

He can't be any clearer in the 1st minute of that interview ffs :lol: . He's talking about the officials and the decision given, doesnt seem to care about the player.

Sinclair instead of Thompson but close.
Thompson who scored against Stuttgart, Shakhtar, Liverpool, Bayern, Barcelona? That Thompson? You'll have to show your working there.

Depends on the system. Sinclair in BR's preferred system, Thompson otherwise. Sinclair offers more goals but Thompson deadly with his set piece delivery. So as I said close but Sinclair edges it.

We won the treble in 00/01, not 01/02. Going by wikipedia I don't think either Crainey or Tebily made enough appearances to get league winner's medals (2 and 4 respectively), and they didn't play much in the cups either, so it would be stretching it a bit to say that they both have a treble to their name.

Edit - actually Crainey came off the bench in the league cup final so he'll have a winner's medal for that game, but probably not for the other two competitions.

The game has changed too much tactically and in terms of how (good) referees deal with foul play to compare the teams. The treble team would struggle with the rapid closing down of the current team and the current team would strugglew with the physical play of the treble team.

Wonder how Larsson and Sutton would get on against Boyata and Jozo.

It would be 23 -0 before half time.

A Scottish referee wouldn't know what to do with Celtic v Celtic anyway, the game would probably be abandoned after both teams are reduced to 6 men before half time :lol:

sutton was pretty average that year. its martins team in the next 3 seasons that would scud us. certainly not the treble one

I lost count of the times we were 23-0 up at half-time back in MONs reign up against much poorer defences, the bookies wouldn't even let you bet on it happening...

Sutton would be out injured.
They'd be facing Tommy Johnson, who'd be knackered and looking at the bench after 30 minutes.

MON team would probably score with every single set piece as well. 23 would probably be a bit light
