Two town players in the Championship’s 20 greatest players…. 13:56 - Jul 6 with 4167 viewsMatt_Netherlands

According to this podcast anyway. What do people think of the list?

And yes I used the word “players” lights for our inclusions.

Some classic names on there but Oli Norwood at 4….?! No.

Reuben Neves, but perhaps his one season in the Championship counts against him.

I get why the likes of Trippier and Mitrovic are there but they aren't really considered Championship players. They're well established PL players who either started in the second tier or had a brief spell or two there.

The ones that stick out that are rightfully on the list are the likes of H**lahan, McCormack, Sharp, Whittingham and Rhodes.

In fairness it’s only been called The Championship since 2004.

Do know what you mean though.

Feels like David Nugent should be on there. Maybe Darren Bent too.

Is it because it is just considering players since the second tier was renamed The Championship? (I don't know when that even was, but seem to remember we won the division one play-off)
Agreed on what is the point though - to generate discussion (and more cynically, clicks) I presume.

If it’s the best second tier players ever then it’s rubbish. Eiður Guðjohnsen Is the best ever player that I’ve seen play at that level.

You could argue Kieran Dyer. I’m not sure what their criteria is here. There are some bang average players on that list.

Surely the idea is that it's the 'most memorable' players?

Otherwise Rooney would be in there.

Trippier has played more games in the Championship (174) than the PL (151) - think it's fair enough to include him as a top Champ player for what he did there and an example of what can go on above that

Mitrovic has also had 4 cCHampionship seasons, 4 promotions and is 14th all time top goalscorer (86) - with best goals per minute for anyone who has scored more than 38 goals (blame Transfermarkt for that random number as that is how far down their stats went)

Both been excellent Championship players, and not ones who have just had a good season there

Well thanks for crapping all over my post

I just think of them as PL players and I think many would agree. Saying that, you've made a strong case!

Someone on Reddit made a team inspired by this but instead of just the best, they went with the most "Championship-y" players, which is just most appearances. Two very familiar names on there...

It can’t be, I assumed it meant performing in that league over a prolonged period ( 5 years or more ) . If it was 1 season surely Grealish would be on there.
