    Well, a fist.

    We let a perfectly goodgoalkeeper leave because he had a fag.

    We signed a goalkeeper that literally couldn't catch and couldnt be taught. If that isnt the definition of a **** keeper I dont know what is. On his debut he punched a rather slow shot that was heading gently towards his stomach. He was hopeless.

    Compared to him, Almunia was Peter Shilton (I would have said Seaman but I dont take His name lightly).
    I have just this very minute gone to youtube and discovered a video of Rami catching footballs after they were kicked to him by a training person of some sort.

    So this is untrue and you now owe AWIMB an apology. Thank you.

    I told you what Bob Wilson told me. Of course, if you want to ask BobWilson for an apology......

    Grimandi. Now there's a name I haven't heard for many years.

    Here's my choice:

    Shaaban
    Andre Santos
    Stepanovs
    Cygan
    Remi Garde
    Kallstrom
    Malz
    Cabbalero
    Park Chu-Young
    Diawara
    Jeffers
    I'd have Squillaci/Silvestre in ahead of Cygan. Pascal was a man of limited talents but he made the most of what he had (sometimes).

    Last I heard he was one of our top scouts.

    Squillaci or Silvestre were deffo worse than Cygan. Mind you, if you really wanted a terrible central defence, playing Luzhny and Stepanovs were hard (ie easy) to beat - as United so comprehensively proved.

    Probably gone now with the collapse of the former regime.

    I recall one of Stepanovs earliest performances, cup v Chelsea I think, back when we would be moved for the day from CE to NB.

    He looked a player.

    Juan played that day also I think.
