Subject: In terms of most exciting team I am again going to mention the mostly forgotten team of Diarra Dembele Dempsey Duff and Murphy- technically excellent and capable of blowing teams away when they were on it
In reply to: f bloke 's message, "we have our second highest epl points total after this number of games and yet I would say that only Robinson would get into our best ever composite epl team. That is a real testament to Marco’s coaching. In comparing players across different teams there is tension between nostalgia and recency bias - and once you get over a certain age, nostalgia bias often wins and that may be the case in my case but as much as I am enjoying this team we have had better individual players if not teams" on Thursday, December 19, 09:21:20am

  • We watched Saha/mitro/boa/steed etc for 5+ years so will have far more fond memories than say ESR. I’d argue iwobi should be in the conversation now and possibly Willian from 2 years ago, thought he was sensational. ESR/anderson/Leno (feel he’s started getting better again)/berge only a fair judgement after they’ve given us more evidence to go off. This team also bit for physicality which is less appealing as a fan than the technicians of Murphy/diarra/berba but no less effective.

  • I agree with much of that - particularly length of playing time - it may be that if they played together for 2-3 more seasons Anderson and Bassey may get up there with Hangeland and Hughes. I would suggest only Finnan has been a better RB than a fully fit Tete. Iwobi will also be in the conversation if he continues to improve - but the thread is about the most exciting teams and I feel that the Diarra Dembele team is the most exciting team in my time.
