I'd probably agree with yours, although I'd try and squeeze McCann in somewhere. RdB was more of an attacker for us aswell, certainly his best season (2002/03) he was anyway. That squad right now would be worth a lot of fucking money. Yeah you're right about a place for McCann. I don't think I've seen anyone deliver a better ball as consistently as he did. As for De Boer, one of my all time favourites. He always made something happen. Bags of quality. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morpeth Bear 18 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 No mention of Sandy Jardine or John Greig although admit it's difficult to know how they would have compared with the players from 80's and 90's, but proud to say I was there to see them every week in any case.

Craig was a great player for us and I am not taking that away from him, that is why I said I was being picky but Davie Weir lead the line at his ripe old age for over four years at the end. i haven't seen a better defence since the old man left than the one we have now. That is not taking away from our Craig if your being ousted by Davie, I am sure he would understand. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big decision was whether to have Derek Johnstone in the squad as either centre half or centre forward. instead of Hateley, Johnstone the better player, but Hateley just had so much presence and could really upset defenders. Stein for me was am almost, not as prolific as McCoist, not as good in the air as Johnstone and less skilled and confident than De Boer, If my heart had picked the squad MacDonald and Mclean would have been in.

If it wasn't solely for players we've seen in our time as a supporter I'd have Steven and Wilkins in; former was winding down when I first started really following football. Cannigia was one of my favourites during his time with us. Totally overlooked him. I'd probably actually place him in the team instead of Jelavić now you've reminded me.

Aye Two more great players as well - I loved Stein ( and then Derek Parlane ) - Greig was the standout of that era for me tho - Baxter was mercurial at times but Greig for his consistency and leadership is ‘the man’ - loved that big tam Forsyth made it as welll - was that for his wonder goal ( from 6 inches ) to win the 100th SC against them?

I remember doing one of these a few years ago (I think it was a team, not a squad) and I had no sooner selected it than I was changing my mind within 10 seconds. It's hard enough trying to select players from even one decade, never mind from over six. To give an example, a player who many won't even know his name, yet was the greatest centre-half in Rangers history, will hardly be mentioned in this thread, except by a few; that man was the mercurial Willie Woodburn, who arguably was the greatest in footballing history, never mind in Rangers/Scottish history.

Great post mate. I missed seeing him play OZ .... but still remember my Dad and uncles raving about him that much it seems like I had seen him play. There's now plenty of info out there that describes Willie Woodburn's outstanding ability as a centre half .... with a style way before it's time .... but the stories from family and friends were all we youngsters (back then) had to go by and are the ones that are most vivid and I wouldn't change that for the world. Great Op ... but I have to decline, as I also have quite a few players that I would have to leave out of an all time great Rangers team .... my good old memories won't allow that mate ... suffice to say each decade has had it's "special talents" and they all hold wonderful and unfortunately not so wonderful memories of success and failure ... that's the beauty of this game and of course the team we all support.
