I'm not so sure.
I think Köpke still has nightmares after what some of "my" players (Suker, Jarni, Boban..) did to him and his team in 1998

you mean when he was 36-37 yo and on goal for easily the worst, or second worst, German NT in history
but then again - with that mid and defense, he could just as well go in the stands and watch the game from there

btw, that was just a joke ... you know, just to stir things up a little around here

Upssss, i thought you were dead serious

no way! Gary Neville wouldnt be done like that

Henning Berg was the guy humbled by Redondo, he wasnt actually first choice CB for Utd either, Ronny Johnsen (a much underrated player even then) and Yip Yap were the centre back pairing but Berg got to play a lot as Johnsen had an injury record that would make Saha look superfit

despite the 'Redondo incident' Berg is still a Utd legend for his superhuman display against Inter Milan in 99

oops, sorry my bad ... it was indeed Hening Berg ... Neville was way behind and out of position on that one

will never get tired of watching this:

Wow someone actually put Yorke there I think Yorke was really fantastic....he even won "best defender" in the first round of the WC 2002. He is one of the few players with 200+ Premiership goals That said, he's lucky to get a spot on the bench from me

Only Alan Shearer got over the 200 mark so far

He's on a massive 260, over 70 ahead of current no.2 Andy Cole. Henry could possibly break 200 next year if he doesnt go abroad though. Yorke got 122 in his time, which is still a big achivement and places him 3rd best foreigner behind Henry and Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink
