edited December 2008 in General Charlton
Watching the build up to Liverpool game out here on Showtime where they have Ian Dowie & Derek Whyte as studio guests.
Rob McCaffery asks Dowie to pick his best team of players he either played with or had under his management and he picks Luke Young at right back and Darren Bent as sub, only kept out of the starting 11 by Shearer & Le Tiss.

He also reckons the best fight he witnessed on a football pitch was Terry Hurlock and David Speedie.....with only one winner.....and it wasnt Speedie!

    You mean he didn't pick Faye and Traore?

    Where has this anti Diawara stuff come from all of a sudden?
    The bloke was a very sound player who was sadly missed when he left....big mistake letting him go and playing in a position that we haven't really filled with any conviction since he left.

    Diawara had a dodgy start but I thought he turned it around and I for one was sorry to see him go.

    No, looked fast and could head a ball a long way when no one was near him.

    No positional sense, got done time and time again by forwards who sat on his shoulder (Wycombe) and let's just say his lifestyle wasn't suited.

    Well rid IMHO

    There were some days when Diawara looked outstanding (Man City and Watford at home spring to mind), others when he was utter garbage (Chelsea away). Either way he was somebody I rated overall and I was quite surprised to read the quote attributed to Richard Murray about him shortly after Dowie's sacking.

    Though Muzza did make his famous quote on that unhappy night of the Wycombe debacle

    even the crap players from 2-3 years ago look world beaters compared to some of the current players

    Traroe had to be the worst- even the Liverpool fans didn't rate him- that should have told Dowie something- I reckon Dowie got bashed on the head too many times when he wasplaying!!

    Not having that. Traore was garbage, but Amdy Faye made him look like Lionel Messi. Faye is, without a doubt, the most pathetic piss-poor excuse for a professional footballer I've ever seen.

    Wasn't a mistake, he wanted to leave, not much we could really do.

    Got most of the money back we paid for him anyway.
