    Sauzee was great. The best in the last 30 years? I dont think so.
    He was passed his best (still very very good) he was also only there a short period time.

    IMO only Steve Archibald would come close

    does him only playing for about two years at hibs reduce his ability?

    go on then name his superiors, i dare you

    Latapy
    Riordan
    Jackie McNamara
    Ally McLeod
    Goram
    Leighton
    Keith Wright
    Kevin McAllister
    Mickey Weir

    Not suggesting any had the ability Suazee had at 24 - 29 but all had as BIG an impact in the HIBS teams they played in as Sauzee did in the Hibs team he played in.

    Sauzee had some VERY good players (perhaps 5 or 6) to play along side when he was with Hibs

    How many of them never lost against the yams.

    Your at the wind-up surely

    Sauzees influence on the team obviously flew straight over your head then eh

    I thought John Collins might be amongst them. Goram and Latapy in particular are close contenders. Still think an old past his best Sauzee was the best though.

    you obviously never seen the players I mentioned

    Latapy, O'Neill, Luna, Zitelli, Larsson, Mixu etc helped build Sauzee's Legend not saying he does not deserve it he does but he certainly had a good team around him.

    Collins was one I forgot he was a great player.

    Yeah, going to easter road for 35 years, but never seen these players you speak of.

    Not one brought the composure and sorted out the team like Sauzee did, just his presence on the park brought out the best from the rest.

    I see what you are saying though, all good players in their own right, but as for what they brought to the team, come on, Sauzee was a massive influence on the team, no-one compares to what he brought imo

    I am most certainly NOT having a go at Sauzee he is Legend and deserves his status as such.

    Latapy had a HUGE impact on that Hibs side he did not perform consistantly like Sauzee but I would argue black is white he had less of an impact than Sauzee.

    Sauzee was defo passed his best still more than good enough for Hibs, you can't deny he was lacking pace only his "class" often got him out of trouble. Everything clicked for Frank at Hibs and he was a joy to watch, it was definately and Indian Summer.

    His best moment for me in a Hibs strip was in the Millennium Derby at Tipcastle - not his goal, his 20-yard backheel across his own 18-yard line staight to Derek Collins.

    Sheer class.

    Merci, Franck.

    Or lobbing Barry Ferguson at ER and then, when ratboy turned to chase, puss filled with anger, Franck did it again. Quality.
