Pretty good. Clarke and Jerome too low, 68.

I didn't know Clarke. Jerome was decent enough I just prefer the others

I struggled with the last four, tbh.

Claridge far too low, otherwise very good. 78.

Probably - I just remember the ball bouncing off his shins a lot, but yes, he could probably move up a place.

Two players that are appearing low on most people’s lists scored double figure premier league goals in a season which is interesting.

Yeah, mine was just based on my perception of technical ability and not necessarily effectiveness.

1. King
2. Adams
3. Stansfield
4. Jerome
5. Ndlovue
6. Claridge
7. Juke
8. Furlong
9. Adebola.
10. Clark

Same, Jerome was effective but if were basing it on ability, he was basic and had bad technique. I was basing my ratings on pure ability rather than what they did for us.

King and Furlong were two footed, lovely touch, could control it, pass it, all types of finishes, intelligent runs, etc etc, very complete footballers

2 number 7s, no number 6 and Marlon King too low. Decent though. 65.

21. Furlong at 8?

Opinions innit

Overrated & had tiny ears.

Also how could anyone think clarridge should be higher than 5 ? Knew where the goal was but he was completely one footed

johnnyspex

Overrated & had tiny ears.

Let me guess. You love Geoff Horsfield? 😉

Loved him what he lacked in ability he made up in endeavour

Wayne Clarke was a top flight champion player, easily clear at the top. The rest more or less in order of how much impact they had in the top flight.

1.. Wayne Clarke was a bit of a star at Wolves (when they were playing European football too) - scored about 20 in his first season with us and then won the old Premier League with Everton
2.. Paul Furlong - Chelsea paid a fortune for him .. their record signing ? .. and he only moved on (to us) after they signed Vialli
3.. Che Adams - we sold him for £15 million (a record apart from Jude ?) and he kept his place in The Southampton team throughout their Premier League stay - may have played the most top flight games after Wayne CLarke and Jerome in this list)
4.. Marlon King - never really cracked it in the top flight, but 1 in 3 throughout his career shows good consistency and always looked too good for the Championship, but failed in the Premiership
5.. Cameron Jerome - has probably played more Premier League games than any of the others - us (both stints we had there), Norwich, Palace, Stoke and think he scored 10 in the Premier for us
6.. Peter Ndlovu - too inconsistent for me, but almost unplayable on his day ... has got about 15 kids so that deserves a bonus point ,, but in terms of "ability" (your reuest ... ranked higher than if it was purely "effectiveness"
7.. Jay Stansfield - in terms of ability ? hmmm - we haven't even been playing him in his preferred position - too early to judge probably
8.. Steve Claridge - first player to score 20 in a season for us since Francis and did very well with Leicester - over a thousand games with over 25 clubs or summat
9.. Dele Adebola - didn't we keep transfer listing him to motivate him ? ... extremely loveable and scored important goals in big games - but not in other games
10.. Lukas Jutkiewicz - played in Premier for both Everton and Burnley - but never acored a Premier League goal
