What would be the transfer values of these players today?

[super_city_si]

He'd be a walking red card in the modern game, £20m at most.

How much is lee cattermole?

Jimmy greaves would be a fortune. Homegrown and deadly.

Who was regarded the best player in the 19th century/early 20th. I've had a look online but couldn't really find anything.

Billy Meredith??

 

[BongoBlue]

Or a bunch of fives...

*Note Terry Venables to the left of Dave Mackay, rushing to keep the peace.

Hehe. You didn't fuck with Dave MacKay. Bremner looked like he shat himself.

Billy Meredith??

By all accounts Meredith was probably the biggest crowd-puller in that era and his record in his first spell at City suggests a high level of ability, especially considering he played under the old offside law where 3 opponents were needed between the attacker and the goal to be onside.

Someone posted on another thread that they believe it was shortly after MacKay had come back from a broken leg and the dirty Leeds **** was targeting it.

Bremner was a coward of the highest order.

I think Shilton was underrated by England fans, think he was a brilliant keeper, who went on a bit too long and everyone remembers him at the end (and those woeful penalty attempts in 1990) but 10 years previously he was one of the best in the world no doubt in my mind, its all opinions though.

always preferred Shilton to Clemence for England,would have been nice to have seen our big Joe become regular No1 around 76

In his autobiography, Big Joe claims that it was for political reasons that he was overlooked as England's No. 1, though he didn't elaborate.

Cruyff would be very interesting .
I reckon about 100 million euros .
A player who was very intelligent with a football .
I would say Cruyff the most skilful player ever produced in Europe .
Also quite a good manager Cruyff .
