Rousseau 9,351 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Found this interesting question on Reddit. It's a bit of deflection from recent woes, but also compares how far off we may be to a title winning XI. Pick your starting XI from a mix of players from the 2010/11 title winning side and our current squad, based on raw ability. 2010/11 Squad: McGregor; Whittaker, Bougherra, Weir, Papac; Davis, Edu, Wylde; Lafferty, Jelavic, Naismith; McCulloch, Weiss, Miller, Broadfoot. 2019/20 Squad: McGregor; Tavernier, Edmundson, Goldson, Barisic; Arfield, Davis, Jack; Hagi, Morelos, Kent; Aribo, Kamara, Katic, Kamberi. Based on raw ability, and their age at the time. Mine would be (4-3-3): McGregor (2010/11) Tavernier - Weir - Bougherra - Barisic Davis (2010/11) - Jack - Aribo Naismith - Jelavic - Morelos Feel free to add any players I might have missed. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morelos , Naismith over Jelavic!? No! Papac was class, but do you think he's a better all-round player than Barisic? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill 13,717 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 That 2010-2011 team is no better that the one we have. The difference is that Walter absolutely knew what was required to win in Scotland. With one exceptional season aside, he had a habit of being found out in Europe but in the domestic game he pretty much had all the keys to all the doors. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franc Ergs 1,349 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Whether it has any bearing or not, from the names listed ,there were eight Scots in the 2010/11 side, compared to just two. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranger_syntax 3,755 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 I'll take every single player from 10/11. Winning trophies might change that. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrGaryValentine 85 Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 i think a core of scottish players helped that 2008-2011 team mixed with some genuine class (cuellar, mendes, jelevic for example) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
