Agree, but
you could have put Nesta, Beckham or Maldini in our title winning team and they wouldn;t have had the same impact as Hucks did that year.
They are infinitely better players but Hucks was made for the championship that season, his style of direct, almost headless chicken running was the most effective way to play in Div 1.
Bellamy, aside from his injuries, didn;t instincively get the ball and run at defenders 0 which Hucks diid with ubelievable success.
