Inspired by the Luke Littler thread and reminded how nice alliterative names sometimes are, help me come up with an Os XI, struggling to fill a few positions and have already forgotten one of the people I thought of while walking the dogs. Formation is 44fucking2 (unless changes needed to shoe horn in people I've forgotten about):

GK - Glyn Garner
FB - Jens Janse

CB -

LM - Derek Duncan
RM - Billy Beall
CM - Wim Walschaerts

Tommy Taylor! Gah, was thinking about players he used but failed to join the dots to the man himself.

I missed some absolute shockers here but at least two suggestions are already in the opening post so people not reading good.

Reckon we're close to a full matchday 16 so will update later.

Akinfenwa! That's who I forgot after being distracted by picking up a poo or something.

Iriekpen is an incredible shout. Also annoyingly just found out from his Wiki that he's someone I could had in my Ear article about Orient players who've done time.

Why, are you suggesting that us "oldies" are just singing his praises because you can't remember him ?
