    Inzaghi, Del Piero, Pirlo, Suarez.

    The list is endless.

    At the end of the day you just need a balance in the team. I think all you need are decent sized defenders, one tackling midfielder and the rest can be lightweight.

  • I remember Millwall having an ex-Spurs winger in the late 60's/early 70's by the name of Derek Possee. He was around 5ft 3ins and scored a fair few goals for them.

    Posses and Keith Weller were a class act for the 2nd division. Weller went to Leicester where I presume he would have played with our own Len Glover.
  • Messi was only 4 foot 3 until he was 13.

    Agree dizzee, the reason why i don't buy the light weight bollocks regarding Reza. Case closed.

    Messi was only 4 foot 3 until he was 13.

    And then he shrank.
