GK: Peter Shilton
DF: Viv Anderson DF: David O'Leary DF: David Watson DF: Derek Statham
MF: Liam Brady MF: Tony Currie MF: Osvaldo Ardiles
FW: Cyrille Regis FW: Kenny Dalglish FW: Laurie Cunningham
Yes kids - we were THAT good - 3 players in the team of the year!!!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
....and Willie Johnston was keeping Laurie out of the Albion team until his World Cup misdemeanours!....
and Pop Robson was fast becoming the best player in the League a year or so later....
and Wile & Robbo AS A UNIT would have made the team over O'Leary/Watson....
and Bomber was 10 years ahead of his time.
