100% And McGoldrick. And there’s an argument Berra would be handy too. Although Mings would have been wasted in this current squad. He wouldn’t have got the game time ahead of Leif and that could have set his whole career back. We had Chris Wood on loan too didn’t we? I thought he was utterly crap - one of life’s lessons to not judge a player too harshly in the moment (see Walle Egeli, McAteer, etc). |  |

Controversial possibly, but I reckon KM would have liked Teddy Bishop when he first emerged and Cole Skuse. |  |

I argued against it at the time but in our team I imagine he'd be a centre back. In Mick's team he would have been utterly wasted at centre back. |  |

But then Shhepshanks spunks the cash on a new Cobbold Stand and we get worse than Evans. Who knows what might have been had Zamora not been so uncharacteristically prolific in those games. |  |

Fair point. Capital (Aviva loan?) and infrastructure (PR + training ground) in a much more secure position. |  | |  |
| Any year since 2001, at this stage of the season on 23:11 - Mar 17 with 679 views | SuffolkPunchFC | Not one. We’ve not had anywhere close to the financial stability and backing in any of the last 25 years, and have now received 2 PL season’s money to bolster that. This, and the owner’s vision, puts us in a different league to any other since 2001 and bodes very will for the future. |  | |  |

I never rated Cole Skuse but he’s still the player who I would like to have seen KM work with in order to see how he would use him. Obviously in his prime rather than now. |  | |  |

14/15 Murph in this team and we would have been promoted 3 months ago. He was unstoppable. Robbed of POTY. |  |

Wood just managed to get fir when Leicester recalled him, was very good at Watford in the Chaplow game. Might well have helped in the play-offs had we been able to keep him. |  |
