Could you climb over Tor Hogne Aaroy (6 foot 8 1/2 inches)?

 

[Borotommo]

Andes Limpar

 

[BoroMart]

Ian Ormondroyd

absolutely hated this guy back in 86-87. How could such a terribly average footballer cause our brilliant defence so many issues.

Tore Andre Flo was pretty tall wasn't he. He always seemed a bit gangly and awkward

 

[El Guapo]

Kyle Hudlin

 

[jeff_potato]

Brede Hangeland.

Must've been about 6'5 and we spent the entirety of a 0-0 against Fulham floating high balls towards him during Southgate's relegation season.

The man must have lost 10% of his IQ by 5pm after making so many clearances with that elevated bonce of his.

 

[Colin Warnek]

Pascal Groß

 

[SCG]

Jan Aage Fjortoft was 6.3 or 6.4

I remember Peter Crouch at the Riverside v Southampton - thought he was just a typical lanky, limited target man. Boy how wrong I was, terrific feet, incredible volley and great spatial awareness.

Rudy Gestede was a big lad - interestingly he could only leap about one inch off the ground, and was useless with his head - and his feet

 

[guisborough_rob]

Rudy Gestede was useless.

Fixed.
