I'd have David Rocastle ahead of David Bentley then.

Rocastle broke through into the first team at Arsenal, unlike Bentley, and helped them win the Championship, unlike Bentley.

        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

        He's normally pretty funny. (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Feb 19, 13:45:37
        
        correct (NCFC) - Charles21, Feb 19, 13:17:06

        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
