Players of yesteryear who'd fit into 'the McKenna way'. 11:32 - Aug 16 with 2233 viewsBlueBadger

Following on from this:

The "new striker dilemma".... by BlueBadger 16 Aug 2022 11:16
Ideally what we need to do, is go back in time, clone James Scowcroft from the 99/00 season and get McKenna to give him the number 9 role.



What others are there out there?
I'm gonna gonna start with Scowy(obvs), Eric Gates(old enough to remember seeing him play - one of my all time faves) and Cole Skuse of14/15(a much better range of passing than he's given credit for, would make an excellent foil for Morsy).

I'm one of the people who was blamed for getting Paul Cook sacked. PM for the full post.

Hmm - which way? The dull Man U training which turned Champions League contenders into relegation contenders? Last season’s version which neutered every goal scorer at the club and only used one side of the pitch - or this season’s version which uses both sides of the pitch?

At a rough guess I’d say every player in the history of the club pre 2000 would be more than comfortable in this league, with or without McKenna - including Graham Harbey.

Mariner would be the most obvious No 9.

How about Bobby Petta left wing.

John Wark.
With those late runs into the penalty area, he'd have an absolute field day.

We have no village green, or a shop. It's very, very quiet. I can walk to the pub.

Precisely the type we're missing.

Add one clone of him and the rest is already in place.

Foe sheer energy and "robustness", I'll give Bam Bam a shout..
For the more intricate side of McKenna ball. Maybe a Frans Thyjsenn?

N.B. Defacto, Paul Mariner fits into any side.
