I never realised Albert was rated so highly. Knew he was loved by the fans but thought it was because of his forward runs and something else he did that has slipped my mind completely.

 

He could have played in midfield, he was an excellent footballer. Not the best defender by any means but his contribution with very high. Best out and out defender I've seen for us is Woodgate, by a mile, he was ridiculous, he just didn't play enough.

Genuinely thought KI had Steven Taylor in that line-up at first.

 

:lol: All this time!?

 

This is the only line up I'd have that cunt in.

Our top XI of my generation/Premier League eta is pretty straight forward I would say but a CB spot, CM spot and ST spot would be up for debate for a few people.

Schmeichel

 

Neville

Ferdinand

Stam

Evra

 

Ronaldo

Keane

Scholes

Giggs

 

Cantona

Rooney

 

Bit harsh on Beckham and van Nistelrooy

Absolutely no chance is Evra in there ahead of Irwin, but other than that that's pretty close to mine.

Outside of our generation it would be Charlton and Best in there for maybe Keane and Neville, with a change of formation? Not pretending to know anything about it really, mind.

Bench: Van der Sar, Vidic, Beckham, Cantona, Cole.

 

Cantona's exclusion will probably get me some heat.

I'm not even a Man United fan and I find Cantona's exclusion laughable. :lol: He was in my all time PL team ffs, not just my Man United one. Ludicrous that he's not in your Man United team when he was voted like 7th best Man United player of ALL TIME by Man United fans.

He was unreal like but I'm not dropping either of Rooney or Van Nistelrooy. Rooney will be considered our greatest of all time when he retires so who can you drop? Keane? Trying to get some balance here. :lol:

You have a Man Utd bench without fucking Solskjær on it? What? :lol:

Will Rooney fuck be considered your greatest of all time FFS

 

He's already up there like. :lol: If he hadn't asked for a transfer request a lot would probably already have him top.

He's my favourite player. Big difference. :lol:

You have an all-time Man Utd bench. It's prime material for a Solskjær inclusion on so many levels, even if he's obviously not one of the all time greats. :lol:

Just because he's been about for ages, he's not close to loads of your players just in my life time

 

It's not just longevity ffs. :lol: He'll be our all time top scorer and assist holder while being one of the most hard working and versatile players we've ever had. He's incredible. He'll break England's records as well and has a small shot at becoming the all time Premier League top scorer despite barely playing as a striker.

I think a canny few Man United fans that have seen George Best and Bobby Charlton would laugh their head off at you for that suggestion like.

Not doubting Rooney's quality but he's been playing since he was like 16, he's nothing on George Best, man. You're talking about lists where you say he's on top, but I"ve just had a look and on he's nowhere near in most of them, he's like 15th. Most have either Best, Charlton or Giggs at the top...

You've had like 5 Ballon D'or winners or something and probably plenty more who have been close to one, Rooney has never come close. I know Man Utd fans that would have him sold tomorrow tbh.

 

I don't think you should look at that award for justification. We've had many players that are considered among the best and have never come close. Rooney has actually come closer than the likes of Giggs and Scholes I think, while a lot of footballers consider Scholes to be the best player they've ever played with.
