I kno he had his knickers with his long balls, but he rarely made a mistake or lost any battles. It’s what I want from a centre half.

But probably overall the best we’ve had is Gabbidon, who went on to bigger things, but was then , like Turner cruelly hit by injuries.

Collins has probably been the most successful in the last 30 years, playing hundreds of Premier league games for West Ham
We've had some superb centre halves in recent years. Gabbidon, Collins, Purse, Loovens, Johnson, Hudson, Turner, Morrison, Manga and Bamba. Connolly was our player of the season in 15/16 too. Someone in our scouting department knows how to identify a good centre back, which is odd because we've rarely been blessed with good full backs in that time.
