Can't see past Rhodes and McManaman for those awards. Barkley perhaps as a second choice for the second one.

Can't see past Rhodes and McManaman for those awards. Barkley perhaps as a second choice for the second one.

Can't see past Tom Ince for the 2nd.

Can't see past Tom Ince for the 2nd.

He went off the boil a bit second half of last season but he would be my third pick!

Austen and Henley for me, Henley is a seriously good defender and I think will go on to be one of the best in the world, would love to have him here

[Prufrock]

Think Jay's coming last in that first 'un.

And Dan, not to pre-suppose on your knowledge of folk no-one else has heard of, but I think you're thinking of Grant Hanley ( who won't, as it happens, become one of the best players in the world). Adam Henley is a lad our kid went to school with. Right back, decent, played a bit under Kean, but not even close to first team regular at t'Rovers never mind world XI

[bwfcdan94]

Yes I know the difference and have been advised that Adam (not Grant)will go on to be a seriously good player by a Rovers fan. Thank you for enquiring none the less. I have known about Adam from the season we were both relegated (about when we played them and beat them at Ewood my Rovers supporting pal said Adam would be a world beater, better than Jones he said)

[Prufrock]

Well, he's talking shite.

How do we vote on my top Top?

I'm going for the 2001/03 top. That was pretty good. Last seasons wasn't bad either.
