I see that posters on Planet Swans have been voting for the best ever Swansea XI from all the players to have represented the club. This is their selection: Fabianski Rangel Rajkovic A Williams Hadziabdic Curtis Britton R James L James Latchford Michu To be honest, I think that I’d have, more or less, selected that XI. Ivor was my favourite as a kid, but watched him at the end of his career. Never saw either Trevor Ford or Cliff Jones play for the Swans.
A best Swans 11 is only relevant to each individual and who he or her has seen playing....I am over 60 so I would also go for the above but older members would go for players that us youngsters never saw play...the likes of the Allchurchs before they left for example. Let’s be honest if you asked 10 people to give their best team you would have 10 different responses.q
Fully agree - I’m 62. Additionally, younger fans wouldn’t know anything about Ante, Jimmy, Latchford etc - and could have gone for the likes of Chico, Ben and Bony, for example
Most of those that voted there must have listened to Radio Wales last week with Tosh and co. BTW.....no Wyndham no LT10 and as you say no Ivor!!! Looks like a lot of younger fans voted.
Now if the selection was for your personal favourite players in each position, my Favourite XI would be something like: Millington Wyndham Rajkovic L. Phillips Gomersall Curtis Britton R James B Evans Ivor Michu
I wouldn’t argue with that. Might put Gary Stanley in at right back. But everyone else is what I would go with.
That's a good shout Taff I loved watching Tony Millington he turned the mist simple save into a thing of theatrical beauty I'd love to find a place for Herbie Williams too but it's hard to drop one of the others
