Comparisons and Reincarnations


Recommended Posts

On the thread about Vuckic Bearman posted this:

 

"Mykhaylychenko was a fine addition to the squad at the time but no way can I compare him to Vuckvic?

 

Comparisons:

 

McCall - MacDonald. MacDonald.

Stein - Millar. Millar.

Cooper - Wilson. Cooper.

Greig - McCulloch. Greig.

Gascoigne - Baxter. Baxter.

Ritchie - Goram. Goram.

'Bud' Johnston - no comparison

Greig - Gough, Greig.

McCoist, same as Bud.

Albertz - McMillan, Albertz.

Laudrup - Wilson, Laudrup.

Shearer - Johansen, Johansen.

Shaw - no comparison

 

Anyone else prepared to make comparisons be my guest."

 

My reply:

 

"Very interesting comparisons. Shaw/Shearer shurely?

 

Cooper/McLean maybe.

 

Bud/Davy and Davy's the man.

 

McCoist/Forrest?"

 

 

Barca 72's comment:

 

"I agree that Davy was a great wee player, plenty of guts and guile. Wee Bud on the other hand was the best we've ever had at hanging a cross ball, and more foreby."

 

Any other thoughts?

I wouldn't compare Gough to Greig as Greig was mostly at left-back. I would say Gough would be more Dave Smith or Tom Forsyth and I am biased for the 2 older players. Smith, big Tam and Colin Stein were my heroes though.
