Well.

Is your list based on personal opinion? Realised potential, unrealised (at norwich) potential?

Or is it just your faves?

Chris Sutton would surely get in to your top 5.

If you want a random measure how about Mark Robins? With him we finished 3rd in the first Premier League season. Without him we ONLY finished 3rd. Still, his contribution led to one of our best seasons ever.

        Molby - his best moment for Norwich was at Brum (NCFC) - KentonCanary, Feb 19, 13:21:56
        
        Not sure spastic is really appropriate an insult these days (NCFC) - Charles21, Feb 19, 13:17:52
        
        Was at a treat of comedy night in Manchester last year. (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Feb 19, 13:24:39
        
        good (NCFC) - Charles21, Feb 19, 13:32:27
        
        He's normally pretty funny. (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Feb 19, 13:45:37
        
        correct (NCFC) - Charles21, Feb 19, 13:17:06
        
        What that boils down to as real trophies: (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 19, 13:20:03

        Probably Phelan too (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 19, 13:37:03
        
        I agree, it's not great (NCFC) - Charles21, Feb 19, 13:21:19
        
        it says on wiki (NCFC) - Charles21, Feb 19, 13:22:13
        
        No, he wasn't. (NCFC) - Ottosson Foxtrot, Feb 19, 13:21:11
        
        This isn't just about trophies (NCFC) - Charles21, Feb 19, 13:22:55
        
        There is no reason why Eadie should ever make that list, other than in (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 19, 13:24:37
        
        But you put Huckerby in there??? (NCFC) - Charles21, Feb 19, 13:27:00
        
        Has huckerby ever been called up to the England A squad? (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Feb 19, 13:28:28
        
        No, but he has one England B cap, which is more than Eadie, who (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 19, 13:30:37
        
        I know that. (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Feb 19, 13:32:16
        
        lol (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 19, 13:33:11
        
        You think so ? (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 19, 13:28:26
        
        yes i do (NCFC) - Charles21, Feb 19, 13:31:44
        
        Hmm. Not the Championship season. (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 19, 13:34:05
        
        Huckerby has only played (NCFC) - Charles21, Feb 19, 13:37:05
        
        Excellent. So you've proven my point. More appearances, more goals, more caps (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 19, 13:40:27
        
        No (NCFC) - Charles21, Feb 19, 13:43:00
        
        What players who turned out for Norwich at any point achieved more than him (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Feb 19, 13:17:03
        
        That depends on what you mean by "turned out". (NCFC) - Snakey, Feb 19, 13:22:13
        
        scored in a wonderful comeback vs Sheff Utd (NCFC) - Charles21, Feb 19, 13:23:51
        
        Right. So you were wrong and he was right. (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Feb 19, 13:23:41
        
        wrong or right about what you confused spastic (n/m) (NCFC) - Snakey, Feb 19, 13:27:09
        
        oh dear (n/m) (NCFC) - Charles21, Feb 19, 13:27:37
- Well. (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Feb 19, 13:08:12
- Jewkun ityer ? (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 19, 13:07:34
  - Crook is/was in the list mental! (n/m) (NCFC) - Charles21, Feb 19, 13:09:13
    - Well you had one decent shout in there. Then you removed him in favour of an (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 19, 13:11:00
- If you have Jan Molby you have to have Thomas Helveg, really. (n/m) (NCFC) - Ottosson Foxtrot, Feb 19, 13:05:56
  - Ok, Crook out (NCFC) - Charles21, Feb 19, 13:07:04
    - Helveg? (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Feb 19, 13:09:02
      - Because he was one of the best 5 players we ever had. Shame we didn't use him. (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 19, 13:11:20
        
        I can't quite match up this response... (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Feb 19, 13:13:34
        
        Helveg wasn't a has-been. Cottee was. Helveg still had football in him (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 19, 13:17:57
        
        But he obviously isn't talking about how good they were when they played for us (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Feb 19, 13:20:46
        
        I don't think it's obvious at all what he is talking about (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 19, 13:25:20
        
        Seems obvious to me (NCFC) - Charles21, Feb 19, 13:30:32
        
        That's what i'm trying to get to. (n/m) (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Feb 19, 13:27:12
        
        He included Molby and Helveg in his initial list. It's obvious. (n/m) (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Feb 19, 13:26:27
        
        No, he did not include Helveg (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 19, 13:31:55
        
        He swapped him in for Crook at your nudging. (n/m) (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Feb 19, 13:34:04
        
        No, at Otto's nudging (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 19, 13:34:51
        
        Sorry. (n/m) (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Feb 19, 13:46:24
        
        Yes, but also Darren Eadie and Ian Crook. (n/m) (NCFC) - Ottosson Foxtrot, Feb 19, 13:27:16
        
        I think he's done a mash of his faves/the usual suspects... (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Feb 19, 13:31:19
        
        Obviously it is opinion (NCFC) - Charles21, Feb 19, 13:33:34
        
        Erm... (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Feb 19, 13:35:35
      - Well (NCFC) - Charles21, Feb 19, 13:10:00
        
        I'd have David Rocastle ahead of David Bentley then. (NCFC) - Ottosson Foxtrot, Feb 19, 13:13:21
        
        There's a bit of consistency in the debate. (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Feb 19, 13:15:23
        
        Andy Townsend then ? (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 19, 13:18:22
        
        Yes, Woods is a good shout. (NCFC) - Ottosson Foxtrot, Feb 19, 13:17:49
        
        But Bentley is a future World Cup Golden Boot winner (n/m) (NCFC) - Charles21, Feb 19, 13:14:17
        
        Have you been reading his interviews again? :P (n/m) (NCFC) - Ottosson Foxtrot, Feb 19, 13:14:55
        
        ;) (n/m) (NCFC) - Charles21, Feb 19, 13:18:25
        
        He didn't interest me all that much. (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Feb 19, 13:12:30
        
        What about full-backs? (n/m) (NCFC) - Ottosson Foxtrot, Feb 19, 13:13:56
        
        Well there's a much more cultured kettle of fishballers. (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Feb 19, 13:18:39
        
        So was Tony Cottee (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 19, 13:11:35
        
        I'm not saying this is an easy list to compile (NCFC) - Charles21, Feb 19, 13:13:42
- You CANNOT BE SERIOUS!! (NCFC) - CB41, Feb 19, 13:05:51
  - he was pretty good (NCFC) - Charles21, Feb 19, 13:06:49
    - lol (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Feb 19, 13:08:00
