    Tough call this one...... rate them both highly. Both Oakwell legends, but for me their is only on Arjan De Zeeuw... unbeatable in the air, and chipped in with his fair share of goals.

    De Zeeuw Easily

    He was in our team that over achieved for the quality in it and Stephen Foster plays for a Barnsley team that under achieves.

    De Zeeuw when he was at Wigan and Pompey

    Premiership center half, no doubt.
    </p>

    When he played in the Prem with us, just not good enough at the time.

    De Zeeuw

    De Zeeuw by a stretch at the moment - let's see how Foster gets on in the next couple of seasons.

    I can't remember who partnered De Zeeuw at centre half..................

    Not sure he was

    Didn't he get injured and miss most of that season? plus didn't we played 3 at the back. Wasn't it usually De Zeeuw, Appleby (or Shirtliff) and Moses?

    Whatever happened with Steve Davis?

    He broke his leg with us and was replaced with Moses in the first XI who wasn't as good imho. We leaked more goals in the promotion season after Davis got injured.

    Can't remember what happened to him after he broke his leg.

    Steve Davis played half the season up until January 1997

    when he had his leg broken at QPR

    Davis was immense that season, as good as de Zeeuw up until that point.
