Feel free to 'transfer' this thread into another forum (badum tish) but if you could take one player from our history and pop them into this team, who would you pick.

I think I would go peak Andy Johnson just because, as well as his goals, he would transform our pressing game. Although Wright was a markedly better player.

(This is also a discussion of what this team needs).

Yes but he could do a lot more than that.

Was he any good? What would he bring? I was too young to really know the players of that era, although I loved Swindlehurst.

I wonder if we just need a high energy midfielder with fantastic passing. Jairo with pace and power for eg.

Mike Elwiss serious injury robbed him top class striker could have gone on and played for England IMO

Certainly good, but was he that great with his passing? I don't think so. When Wright left, Gray's passing went to pot. And I don't think he was sulking. I think Wright made runs that gave midfielders great options.

Peak Andy Gray was only when Wright was at the club, and at no other time in his career.

Well that's the one I'd have !
