Which is the better team?

[sharkey1001]

circa-1995/96

Southall
Jackson Watson Unsworth Hinchcliffe
Kanchelskis Horne Parkinson Limpar
Rideout Ferguson


or this:
Howard
Coleman Jagielka Distin Baines
Mirallas Osman Gibson Pienaar
Fellaini Jelavic

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

The 95-96 team had Kanchelskis, so it gets my vote by default!

Would be a tight game I reckon

 

[wandyr79]

Taking out form

Keeper

95-96

Defence

Present Day

Midfield

Tied

Forwards

A tight one but I would just say Present day

 

[Khalekan]

IMO.....

Neville better than Howard

Seamus better than Jackson

Watto better than Jags

Unsy better than Disdin

Baines better than Hinch (but not at taking corners)

Mirallas better than Kanchelskis (based on his Everton days, not his United heyday)

Osman better than Horne

Parkinson better than Gibson

Limpar better than Peinaar

Fellani better than Rideout

Big Dunc rules, la'



That makes 6-5 in favour of the class of '95/96 in my book.

And while we're at it.....Big Joe a better manager than Moyes.

Present day.

Put Graham Stuart in the 95/96 one instead of Rideout and I could change my mind..

Close match but reckon Kanchelskis and Limpar would torment Baines and Coleman. Dunc would have a good battle against Distin but would murder Jags. 95-96 team would score from almost every corner with the Hinchcliffe specials and Horne and Parkinson would boss the current midfield. That said I also believe mirallas, Peinaar, Coleman and Baines and would cause Jackson and hinchcliffe loads of problems. Close but I go for 95-96

 

[Khalekan]

And on the subs bench, I'd have Grahan Stuart befire any of todays benchers.

 

[Allezfan]

Present day is a better team with a worse manager.

 

[Stend]

IMO.....

Neville better than Howard

Seamus better than Jackson

Watto better than Jags

Unsy better than Disdin

Baines better than Hinch (but not at taking corners)

Mirallas better than Kanchelskis (based on his Everton days, not his United heyday)

Osman better than Horne

Parkinson better than Gibson

Limpar better than Peinaar

Fellani better than Rideout

You can't have seen much of that season then mate Kanchelskis much better than Mirallas so far.

 

[roydo]

This week or last week though?

 

[electricblue]

It's also worth remembering that the likes of Hinchcliffe and Horne were fairly naff until JR became manager.

 

[Foot Long Hot Dog]

You can't have seen much of that season then mate Kanchelskis much better than Mirallas so far.

If he wasn't in short trousers at the time then that's a truly clueless view imo.

15 goals from midfield in his first season like.

 

[Huyton Layne]

Two real wingers and a big number 9. Ah memories, shame they got injured a lot.

 

[Tubey]

It depends if it were an important game or not and who the manager was.
