Flip Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 I like the idea of this though, an all time XI for each team. It would have to be Barca for me, Messi, Cruyff, Maradona, Ronaldo, Xavi...that's 5 of the very best players of all time right there. Fair enough, at first I was thinking of what they did for each club. In which case Ronaldinho would be there instead of Diego. Forgot all about Cruyff Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rossi Tasotti - Costacurta - Baresi - Maldini is pretty much the best back 4 ever infront of a capable keeper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That I've seen...and it's biased based on favourites rather than most effective, but: Given Solano Albert Coloccini Enrique Ben Arfa Lee Beardsley Ginola Shearer Ferdinand A bit more serious/effective in my life time Given Beye Albert Coloccini Enrique Solano Lee Beardsley Robert Shearer Cole If I was being serious rather than nostalgic and took older players that I haven't seen into account (but popular opinion), I'd probably go with this, but I dunno tbh.

Froggy Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 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. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Outside of our generation it would be Charlton and Best in there for maybe Keane and Neville, with a change of formation?
