Past Players Pep would have loved to have had from our past

[simon23]

Which players from the past would Pep love to have had...or to put it another way, which players do you think would have fitted into his system.
I can only remember as far back as the 80's but there are some obvious ones

Tevez - forget his off the field histrionics....his work rate and goal scoring i reckon would make him a shoe in for a Pep team

SWP - think Pep could have turned him into a world class player....they type of player Pep likes, Skilful, quick worked hard for the team and an eye for goal

Kinky and Ali B - both hugely creative players in the mould of David Silva......however could either of them done the defensive side....Kinky probably not.

Bellamy......think outwide his pace, tenacity and work rate may have attracted Pep..BUT was he cover enough to work in a Pep team

The defenders are harder....Distin maybe?

Certainly none of the goalkeepers from our past as Pep requires a unique skill set...

Fullbacks?????

Just reminding myself of some of that rubbish we bought 12-13 year. Maicon, Nastastic, Javi Garcia to name a few. Anyone reckon nastastic could of done a job under pep?

Not his greatest fan but he’s playing for Schalke atm and seems to be doing well? Wonder whether he could have a similar role to Mangala, he was abit better on the ball also.

Further back defo SWP, De Jong, Yaya (know the past he had with Pep)

 

[Barcon]

Corluka

Does Boateng count? Cause they were great at Bayern together.

Think Javi Garcia could have done well eventually.

Pizarro would have done well I reckon, if loans count.




*I read the OP as recent signings

Paul Lake.

Current player, but I wonder how good Kompany would have been under Pep when in his prime.

I’d say Pep would have improved SWP too. SWP always had the technical side to his game, he just needed a manager that could push him to a higher level.

As yeseye says - Paul Lake, + Kaz Deyna

If we're having Sommeil want to see Pep performing magic with Sibieski.
