Love Deano of course. I'd play them both and definitely Chaplow. Actually you could easily make two sides if everyone was available. Having said that, am I right in thinking that some of the players being discussed were there in our first Div One season but not actually in our promotion season?
Nope. Richardson and Butterfield were our promotion RBs. We bought Clyne in the summer window ahead of our first season back in the PL.
This was our first Div One team: 01 Davis 02 Harding 03 Thomas 05 Perry 16 Murty 23 James (Gillett 75) 10 Wotton 19 Schneiderlin (Thomson 83) 04 Saganowski 17 Paterson (Gobern 70) 20 Lallana Substitutes 28 Bialkowski, 15 Lancashire, 08 Gillett, 11 Holmes, 21 Pulis, 26 Thomson, 29 Gobern
And this was our final one of the season: 01 Davis 02 Harding 06 Jaidi 39 Aaron Martin 40 Otsemobor 04 Puncheon (Oxlade-Chamberlain 82) 14 Hammond 37 Antonio (Papa Waigo 46) 07 Lambert 20 Lallana 38 Connolly (Wotton 63) Substitutes 28 Bialkowski, 18 Mills, 23 James, 35 Seaborne, 10 Wotton, 41 Oxlade-Chamberlain, 09 Papa Waigo
Like Romeu and Bertrand he got a good deal from us to escape Stamford Bridge. His lack of confidence in his own ability prompted the transfer to Swansea. Whilst he believed he was going to struggle to get in the first team, many fans thought he was a valuable squad player and would appear regularly. He was offered a new deal so obviously there club thought that as well.
Ah I liked Martin - never got enough chances for us (Adkins of course having a crush on Danny Seaborne)
