I hate that picture!View attachment 38704
If you were to ask what image sums up my life as a Forest fan, I’d like to say the league cup finals, McGregors penalty rebound, Clough holding hands with that shitehawk Venables, Clough’s final game, Stan at Peterborough or KING BILL, even Psycho at Euro 96 but no it’d be Des crying in Sheffield.

For a short period in time he was certainly up there. If you watch him through Italia 90 he was one of the best players of the whole tournament.Do you think it would have been fair to say that there was a point where he was probably the best CB in the world after Baresi?
I was a bit young then, so didn't pay as much attention to defenders!
Pearce probably second best in his position in the world at the time after Maldini as well.
I can imagine, if they were playing today, both Pearce and Walker would be attracting fees north of £50m. Frightening.

Maldini was only a kid then, still a great player but the best in the world was Brehme.
I was thinking Brehme would be in the mix as well. but Maldini had already been playing for Italy for 2 years.

I bet for a little while even Gary Charles would have been 40m.
