Should have stayed with us, had some big money moves and It all went wrong when he went to Leicester.

Ha well we havent had too many In recent years to be fair

 

[dedwardp]

Quite a few in recent years - when we were more successful and it all broke up, the majority of them continued to play in the top two tiers.

Some notable ones that have done well/are doing well would be Luke Garbutt, Michail Antonio, Danny Batth, Dean Hammond, George Elokobi, Lomana Tresor Lua Lua.

 

[TrinidadsNumberOne]

The ones that actually did something (NB: Half of these ended up as crocks)
David Platt
Danny Murphy
Neil Lennon
Dean Ashton
Seth Johnson
Rob Hulse
Billy Jones
Robbie Savage
Ashley Ward
David Vaughan
Ashley Westwood
Luke Murphy
Nicky Maynard (borderline, crock but did hold his own in the Championship)
Luke Varney

Loanees who we had too
Jake Livermore (broke his leg, became £8 million player, now done for cocaine)
Gylfi Sigurdsson

 

[The Alex]

Forgot we had Livermore. We also brought Madjid Bougherra into the British game.

Nick Powell?! Ok, he hasn't lived up to his potential, but he did score in the Premier League for Man U and double figures in the Championship for Wigan?

 

[Look Out There Are Llamas]

Nicky Shorey, Charlie Daniels and Moses Odubajo who were permanently with us. Loans, Eric Lichaj, Michael Turner, Tommy Carroll, Dean Hammond, Andros Townsend, Paul-Jose M'Poku, Harry Kane.

Three players capped by England there...

 

[BCFC Jordan]

Every night I lie awake thinking how did Danny Rose forge a career at Spurs whilst they let Caulker go.

 

[GFCSludge]

All of these left us within the last ten years and played Premiership football, Matt Jarvis and Ryan Bertrand also earned us plenty o' squid by getting England caps.

Ryan Bertrand
Marlon King (booooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Paulo Gazzaniga
Matt Jarvis
Mamady Sidibe
Simeon Jackson
Andrew Crofts

 

[TrinidadsNumberOne]

Nick Powell?! Ok, he hasn't lived up to his potential, but he did score in the Premier League for Man U and double figures in the Championship for Wigan?

Awaiting the creation of a fall from grace thread for young Nicholas.

 

[Posh Hammer]

Jimmy Bullard, Matthew Etherington and Simon Davies from back in the day.

Dwight Gayle, Russell Martin, George Boyd, Luke Steele, Ryan Bennett, Lee Tomlin and Britt Assombalonga have all done pretty well since leaving.

Craig Mackail Smith, Aaron McLean and Paul Taylor all left for big money and should have done better.

In terms of loans, Saido Berahino was decent when he was here. Jake Livermore was here too. Danny Rose was utter dogshite.

 

[Chris]

Jamie Vardy now at Leicester on the verge of an England call up

 

[TimeyWimey]

Jamie Vardy now at Leicester on the verge of an England call up

He's one of our "ones who got away". We had him on trial, could have signed him but Gudjon Thordarson was manager so rest is history.

Awaiting the creation of a fall from grace thread for young Nicholas.

Gutted for him but in hindsight, and probably confirming what a lot thought at the time, Man Utd probably wasn't the best move for him. Ferguson retiring hasn't helped but he'd have probably benefitted from a lesser move with more of chance of playing.

It is interesting though just how many of our players (particularly academy players) go on to have a career being a crock. Powell seemingly becoming one of those.

 

[PUSBCCFC]

Jamie Vardy now at Leicester on the verge of an England call up

He doesn't deserve an England call up for me.

 

[PatchLatics]

Ryan Bertrand and Micah Richards. Not sure how Chris Taylor is doing for Blackburn.

 

[Crewelad87]

How long have you got ..................

 

[GloverGing]

The only contracted player who has gone on to play in a top flight that I can think of is Marek Stech at Sparta Prague. Chris Cohen and Lee Peltier and Lee Johnson have come close to playing in the premiership.
As for loans Asmir Begovic, Steven Caulker, Andros Townsend, Ryan Mason and Liam Bridcutt.

 

[JonBCFC]

Steven Caulker.

I wish he'd stop signing for shit prem clubs be was quality for us on loan!

 

[blade1889]

Should have stayed with us, had some big money moves and It all went wrong when he went to Leicester.

It all went wrong when he signed for us more like.

Stand-outs for us would be Englands defence. Kyle Walker, Phil Jagielka and Gary Cahill.

 

[Scumarmy.]

Andros Townsend, Stephen Gleeson, Shaun Williams, Sam Baldock, Gary Mackenzie, Patrick Bamford, Benik Afobe, Lloyd Dyer, Stephen Quinn, Sheyi Ojo, Danny Collinge, Dele Alli, Brendan Galloway, Aaron Wilbraham, Jason Puncheon

All those have played for us and gone on to play in the top 2 divisions, albeit a few of them haven't stayed there but that's beside the point, these are only the ones off the top of my head aswell

Don't forget Jake Livermore mate.

 

[JoshBCFC]

Steven Caulker.

I wish he'd stop signing for shit prem clubs be was quality for us on loan!

Remember when he ran into the post and had to go off? lol

 

[GFC4EVA]

Paulo Gazzaniga
Ryan Bertrand
Ade akinbiyi
Matt Jarvis
Mamady sidibe
Nyron nosworthy
Andrew crofts
Jay Lloyd Samuel
All went on to play in the premier league
Older ones include Steve bruce, Tony cascarino

 

[JJH]

Yannick Bolasie had another belter of a game today - how long before someone offers big money for him, and we get the money for this supposed sell on clause?!

 

[The Hand of Dom]

Jimmy Bullard, Matthew Etherington and Simon Davies from back in the day.

Dwight Gayle, Russell Martin, George Boyd, Luke Steele, Ryan Bennett, Lee Tomlin and Britt Assombalonga have all done pretty well since leaving.

Danny Rose is up there with Njazi Kuqi for the worst loanee I've ever seen for us. Absolutely appalling.

 

[DearneValleyRover]

Ryan Mason
Jason Shackell
Paul Green
Chris Brown
David Wheater
