The thread on Romaine Sawyers
#1
and the discussion as to whether he could be a good premiership player, made me think who is the best footballer to have played professionally in England, but never played in the highest league (i'll have none of this there was nothing before the premiership nonsense).

From an Albion perspective, possibly Paul Mardon?

I use to watch a lot of Walsall when they were managed by Alan Buckley and thought some of their lads could have made played at a far higher level - Gary Childs was one such player.

Possibly the obvious answer is Steve Bull.

On Romaine Sawyers I suspect one of the reasons why he has yet to play in the premiership is that he has only recently switched to his best position.

Pre injury Texiera was a quality player. Could have easily graced the lower echelons of the premier league imo.

Ajeyi is easily a premier league player from everything I've seen up until now. I think he will step up when/if we are promoted.

Lee Trundle?

I also thought Andy Hessenthaler was a decent player and don't think he ever played top flight. Did Jimmy Quinn ever play in the top division? If not he'd be a good shout

Did Peschisolido ever play in the Prem?

Not sure about Marion, to me was one of those classic Centre halves who was great for 89 minutes, always had a rocket in him, ah la Matt Carbon
