Paddyowl Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Two very good professionals who took no prisoners, If we could have one of them at the top of their game now, which would you want ? I think Pearson would just about nick it but it'd be close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfmanjack Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Two very good professionals who took no prisoners, If we could have one of them at the top of their game now, which would you want ? I think Pearson would just about nick it but it'd be close. It's all about opinions, and in mine for what it's worth, Pearson wasn't fit to lick Mick Lyons' boots. Lyons was a quality defender in his prime, whereas Pearson was a good "bread and butter" type player. I even think Shirty was a better centre half than Pearson, but Pearson was the more dominant personality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
