Perhaps Palmer for Godden, maybe Okay for Trewick, a hard one with the rosy coloured specs on, what do you think.
I think your changes are pretty fair, Salop, although I’d say that Godden was a quite excellent shot stopper and Trewick was very much underrated

To be honest in terms of pure individual quality, our current squad is about as close to the one in my OP, as I remember. Of course across squads we have had better individuals, but in terms of an entire squad our current one takes some beating and I suspect you would have to go back to the team in my OP, to find one which holds its own with our current crop.
