And a toss of a coin between Cooper and Laudrup. Both were world class when they were on form. Would have had Durrant in my starting 11 as well, but I fondly remember some of the big mans 'robust' challenges! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I remember correctly, did he not do brilliant for us, then completely mess it up down south? I might be wrong. But we did make quite a healthy profit from him, I think.

onefootwillie 1,518 Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Goram Jardine. Gough , Butcher, Newman. Cooper, Souness, Gascoigne, Laudrup. Hatley , Mols . Felt it very close between McCoist and Mols and if it was for overall goals scored or length of time McCoist wins easily . I just felt at their very best Mols was a better player . But we have been so lucky over the years you could easily pick at least another 11 pretty much to that standard Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I toyed with him Fred but it was such a hard call when considering the quality to choose from. Struggled also with Mols & McCoist but for the same reasons as 1foot Willie has alluded to above felt Mols was the better all round player.

I put him at left back as I had to find some spot in the side , even though I think Davie Robertson is the best I've seen for us there ( might go for Wallace if he plays like last season consistently) As others have said , we truly have been fortunate to have witnessed some fine players in our colours . I love telling my son about the older players but really hope some of the current and future players can be thought of in the same way .

Yep - Id normally have Wallace as my first name on any team sheet - but if Im objective rather than emotional - Numan is the better all round player - and probably Robertson too. I almost included my boyhood hero Kenny Watson in the midfield but can you imagine how many on here would ask Who ??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenny was unlucky to have competition from some class midfielders , Doddie , Bobby Russell to name 2 . Also we tended to play with 2 wide players/wingers . Johnny Hamilton was another player who never played as much then either as squad rotation wasn't considered important then .I'm sure he was also used as a sweeper in European games . If he had been in his prime a few years later under John Greig then things might've been different for him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I couldnt see past Souness & Gazza - world class Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wightman84 1 Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Goram Hutton Gough Cuellar Numan Laudrup Gazza Ferguson Van Bronckhorst McCoist Mols Been going to Ibrox since about 1990 so this is my team since then. The only ones I wasn't too sure about were Hutton and Cuellar and maybe Gio. Hutton purely because I always felt Cleland was underrated at right back, the same with Bjorklund at centre half but it was really only between Cuellar and Weir next to Gough for me. I also consider Ricksen better in midfield than at right back. Maybe could've switched Gio with Albertz? I've done this team quickly so ive probably forgotten a few players.
