SaintJackoInHurworth Posted 23 June, 2012 Share Posted 23 June, 2012 Niemi Golac Lundekvam Hooiveld Bale Fernandes Svensson Le Tiss Skacel Pahars Ekelund Subs: Bart, Petrescu, Delgado, Lee, Kachloul, Kenwyne, Guly This is harder than it looks really. That looks like you have put as many foreign players as you can remember and assumed that Le Tissier is the best English player we have ever had. Let me put forward a few suggestions per country rather than per position (just as a start not an exhaustive list!): England: Le Tissier, Shearer, Keegan, Shilton, Channon, Payne, Osgood, Ball, Case Wales: Bale, R. Davies, Rodrigues, Paul Jones France: Fernandes, Colleter, Schneiderlin, Bernard Republic of Ireland: Kenna, Connolly Sweden: M.Svensson, A.Svensson, Norway: Lundekvam, Tessem, Ostenstad Yugoslavia (Croatia): Golac, Katalinic Latvia: Pahars Brazil: Guly Trinidad & Tobago: Kenwyne Jones N.Ireland: Nicholl, Baird, Clarke, Dowie, Magilton Poland: Rasiak, Saganowski, Andruszewski Senegal: Waigo Japan: Lee Romania: Petrescu Ecuador: Delgado, Chala Portugal: Fonte Holland: Hooiveld, Monkou Finland: Niemi Czechoslovakia/Czech Republic: Rudi Skacel Scotland: McCalliog, MacDougall Nigeria: Agboola Denmark: Ekelund Morocco: Kachloul I particularly want to highlight the English players. My heart says Le Tissier as well, but many people would argue that you cannot put him ahead of Keegan, Ball, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExSt Peter Saint Posted 23 June, 2012 Share Posted 23 June, 2012 I'd have a 25 man squad of: Keepers: Niemi, Bialkowski, Keller Defenders: Baird, Golac, Monkou, Lundekvam, Fonte, Jaidi, Agboola, Bale, Van Damme Midfielders: Belmadi, Do Prado, Ekelund, Schneiderlin, McCalliog, Townsend, Kachloul, Skacel, Forwards Jones, Le Tissier, Pahars, Lee, Delgado Pick your team from that.

VectisSaint Posted 23 June, 2012 Share Posted 23 June, 2012 (edited) We have had some sh ite left backs, lee todd ray wallace , franny ( still love the bloke) mark dennis and nick holmes are the only good ones i can think of in my life time. Peach was better left back than all of them (Holmesy was better LM) Sadly Bale would not make my team as I would have Big Ron up front to take the Welsh slot. Le Saux at LB if each of the Channel Islands can be represented, if not then Skacel made a decent fist of the job, but not sure if he ever signed. Niemi, Golac, Lundekvam, Svensson (M), Le Saux, Berkovic, Le Tissier, Schneiderlin, Pahars, Davies R, Channon Edited 23 June, 2012 by VectisSaint Subbed Berkovic for Kachloul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farawaysaint Posted 24 June, 2012 Share Posted 24 June, 2012 Seeing as good wingers are in such short supply where's the love for our Terry?
