OK, so we have got to roughly the half way mark of the season. If you had to pick a squad - a starting 11 plus 5 subs for a team of the season so far, who would you pick?

 

My team is as follows:

 

---------------------------------------------------Jaaskilinen-----------------------------------------------

 

Eboue------------------------Vidic--------------------------Ferdinand---------------------Baines

 

----------------------Essien--------------------Butt----------------------Barton---------------------------

 

Agbonlahor----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Giggs

 

--------------------------------------------------Drogba---------------------------------------------------------

 

Subs: Van Der Sar, Campbell, Gilberto, Lennon, Johnson

Ronaldo in for Agbonlahor, I'd probably put Makalele in for Butt as well. Probably as in Mak would probably be the best option given that Butt shouldn't be anywhere near the team! Possibly Matt Taylor and Sol Campbell (maybe even Linvoy Primus, who has been superb all season) should have a shout. I'd consider Doyle as a bench player as well.

It remains a huge mystery to me how you English speaking guys can't write Finnish names like Jääskeläinen in this case? And Hyypiä just as well!

 

About the team...NO WAY NUFC players should be included!(Taylor maybe but only due to his great preformances of late)

Because my keyboard doesn't have crazy little dots above letters. ;)

 

Agree with Hoon's team above btw.

I didn't mean exactly that...but what's this Hiipia or Jaaskilinen or whatever? BTW...you should try "ALT + 132"(combinations from numpad)

 

I can't spell Jaa....fuck it, but Hyypia isn't exactly rocket science.

 

ä ooh it works.  bluebiggrin.gif

I know that Fabregas isn’t the most popular person, but imo he surely needs to be in the team. I think he has been amazing for Arsenal. If he starts to score some goals, he has it all in a Arsenal "passing system" team.

James

 

DEF:

G. Neville

Campbell

Terry

Evra

 

MID:

Arteta

Essien

Fabregas

I know it's all about opinions, but I don't think Robinson's been the best English keeper this season, nevermind 2nd best keeper in the league. (James, Kirkland & Carson have all been better imo)

I'm astonished no one has Paul Scholes in their lists, for me he is right in the running for Player of the Year, ask any Man Utd fan who's been their best player this season.

 

For me

 

Juuskalainen - save of any season v Villa at weekend

Gary Neville

Vidic - Has proved me wrong

Ricardo Carvalho - with a nations media lodged so far up Terry's arse it's nauseating, Carvalho is often overlooked, and for my money he reads the game better and is a better tackler than JT and is an absolutely key player for them as far as I'm concerned

Taylor - more for his goalscoring exploits than anything, to think Regi Perrin wanted rid for 500k 12 months ago

Ronaldo - Unplayable at times

Essien

SCHOLES - Absolutely different class, the way he played against Boro this season was one of the finest midfield displays I've ever witnessed.  Scholes is dubbed a goalscoring midfield player, he is usually yet I dont think he's scored in the league this season, but that really is a small part of his game, he gives the team so much more, and yes he is my favourite non-toon player, class technique, class tactically, class brain, class attitude.

Giggs

Drogba Total cunt but different class

Kanu - Never convinces me, but have to stick him in because he has shut all his doubters up so far with his goals tally

:lol:

 

Agreed about Huddlestone though, he's been playing well recently.

 

i guess you havent seen many spurs games. The guy has been different class since signing from wigan. Was easily our best player this season until the mighty Huddlestone arrived.
