Steve Nicol and his 5 league titles, 3 FA Cups and a European Cup might disagree

Yeah but that was in his prime for Liverpool. I’m guessing the OP means playing-wise for Wednesday.

Probably be Petrescu but I did have a soft spot for Simek.

Me too, always thought Simek was a good player for us. 

 

Went downhill quickly though, injury as I recall?

 

It's a tough ask to compare to Roland though, none since even come close. In fact, going back would only put Mel Sterland in the same bracket as Nilsson.

Yeah shame about the injuries to Simek, he would have been a mainstay for another 2-3 seasons I’m sure of it if not for injury. As for Nilsson he was the Rolls Royce of RBs and nobody will ever compare.
