Which Premier League XI


Recommended Posts

Guest firetotheworks

Blatant rip of the best strikers thread, and this will no doubt have been done before, so feel free to merge mods.

 

 

It hasn't been done for a while, so what's your current premier league XI?

 

 

                        Given

Sagna Vermaelen Terry Cole

                      Essien

        Lampard              Arshavin

                      Rooney

            Torres          Drogba

Like any other best XI concept, it raises the question of whether we're looking for a team that would work formation-wise, and players that complement each other etc.... or 11 really good players.

The inverse of Rooney. He can also clone himself, impressively.

It was close between Vidic and Gallas tbh. Carvalho doesn't look the same defender since his injury problems last year and Rio has been terrible this year. Toure was also in with a shout.

 

I think Anelka is sensational. I'm in a serious minority that has him right up there with Torres and Drogba. He can do everything and can also play out wide. He was the top scorer in the league last year so I'm not sure its that outrageous a shout.

Im surprised he's got any character left tbh.

Something along those lines, depends on the formation.

Haha, yeah, well I suppose I'm thinking in terms of complete squad and being too lazy to actually think about it.

At a glance I didn't realise you'd posted two separate lineups there. Thought you were packing the midfield or something with an epic formation. :lol:

Guest Alan Shearer 9

GK - Ledley King, gets injured too much to play outfield, excellent player

 

CDF - Peter Crouch, his height would clear every aerial threat in the game, good touch for big man

CDF - Walcott, as a sweeper his pace would balance well with Crouch's height to create an impregnable fortress (the defence)

RFB - Van Persie, his incredible left foot would pose interesting questions when played on the right of defence

LFB - Petr Cech, he has struggled for form in goal, he would be reborn at left back with his positioning and left peg clearing any danger

 

Midfield - For the midfield this team would just need Andrei Arshavin, he is arguably the best player in the world at this moment by a distance. His Russian stamina and pinpoint passing placement would supply

 

CF - Peter Crouch, doesn't get played much atm but is prolific in internationals against the worlds best teams like Jamaica and Andorra, his height would be big for Arshavin to aim at and he has a big touch for a good man.

 

BENCH

 

Drogba

Torres

Lampard

Gerrard

Essien

Rooney

Vidic

Ballack

Evra

Ivanovic

Fabregas

Gallas

Van Der Sar

 

In case the orignal formation doesn't work.
