As a LB Frank Lampard (there is only one)
As God Bobby Moore
As a defensive midfielder God's eldest son Billy Bonds
As an attacking midfielder God's second son Trevor Brooking
As a winger God's youngest son Alan Devonshire
As a striker God's adopted son Pop Robson. (Not the curly haired twat who played for Man Utd)

I could go on. If I drink anymore gin, I probably will.

Much as I enjoy a good defender I'd take either Liam Brady or Davor Suker. Earlier versions than the ones we actually got, obviously.
Communism deprives no man of the power to appropriate the products of society; all that it does is to deprive him of the power to subjugate the labour of others by means of such appropriations.

As good as he was, and I loved watching him play, would he handle the pace. He makes Noble look like Usain Bolt.
Pace is of course a great asset but pure class doesn't necessitate so much pace.

Futre or Benayuon couldn`t lace Brady's boots.

You are having a laugh!

I expect that sort of statement from Numbers.I am in SHOCK!

If I was choosing an all time West Ham XI,him and Moore would be the first 2 names on the sheet.

Players like Brooking and Moore,never needed pace,it was all in their heads.I,for one would love to see Brooking play nowadays.He would be the Kevin De Bruyne of today.

A great read lads,I love the way there’s so many different views on who to bring back and others arguing why we shouldn’t bring them.

I am sticking with Paolo myself.how I miss his brilliance and unpredictable moments of genius.
But I can understand why left backs are being touted about and the names like Bonds,Brooking,Moore and Dicks are music to my ears.You could easily list 20+ more!

You can`t have seen Brady then?

Ask any proper Football fan,never mind West Ham fan,who was better,I think you will get a 99.9% response in Brady's favour.
