Some tough choices to be made.

 

------------------Reina---------------------

Bosingwa--Skrtel---Ferdinand---Evra-----

Ronaldo---Fabregas---Essien---J. Cole----

----------------Gerrard---------------------

-----------------Torres----------------------

 

Subs: Cech, Carra, Mascherano, Alonso, Walcott, Rooney, Drogba

 

Essien just shaded a starting place ahead of The Chief, and Sami nearly made my starting 11 but in the end didn't even make the bench!

Skrtel better than Carragher, Agger, Carvalho, Terry etc? Opinions eh...

Very tough this as there is so little between a lot of the players and in some positions there is so much strength but relatively little in others.

 

Reina

 

Carragher Ferdinand Carvalho Evra

 

Essien Fabregas

 

Ronaldo Gerrard Arshavin

 

Torres

 

I don't think there is a stand out right back among the top 4 and it wouldn't seem right leaving Carragher out. Plus he wouldn't have to worry too much about getting forward and could concentrate on covering.

-----------------------------------Pepe

 

--------Bosingwa------Carra---------Skrtel---------Evra

 

------------------------Alonso----------Masch

 

--------------Walcott----------Gerrard----------Arshavin

 

----------------------------------Torres

 

 

Basically what 23 Carra Gold had but with a few changes. First on bench would be Tezez, and I can't be arsed working out who the other 6 would be. Van Der Sar too though. Ah and Nasri.

 

Fuck it :

 

Van Der Sar

Vidic

Carrick

Fabregas

Tevez

Nasri

Drogba

Choosing out of 44 potential players most of us have chosen 4 or 5 Liverpool players for the 11....bias is bliss!

 

I'm not that surprised really. I honestly think we're easily the best side when we're on form, so having 4 or 5 of them in isn't that wierd to me. We seem to have a solid center running from keeper to striker too, but it's just the sides that need working on, as in wingers and full back/wing backs.

 

I couldn't imagine a side without these in it though :

 

Pepe

Alonso

Gerrard

Torres

 

Ok, maybe Van der Sar at his best could give Pepe a run for his money, but I don't think the other 3 can be touched at all.

I love all of those players... but some might argue that Essien and Fabregas are better than Xabi. Gerrard is in by default, Chelsea fans would probably prefer Cech, United fans prefer VDS, and as for Torres he is a shoe in but I can see some chooseing someone else like a Drogba.

---------------------Reina--------------------

 

-Essien------Carragher-------Vidic-------Evra----

 

-------Ronaldo-----Alonso-----Arshavin---------

 

-------Gerrard------Torres------Berbatov--------

------- ----- Reina

Bonsingwa -- Vidic -- Agger -- Evra

Ronaldo -- Gerrard -- Alonso -- Giggs

-------- Drogba -- Torres

 

It occurs to me that the standard of goalkeeping in the top 4 isn't that high. Particularly United and Arsenal. In fact, the standard of world goalkeeping isn't that high at the moment, or is it just me?

 

Essien would play away games instead of Alonso. You guys all seem to rate arshavin loads, I've barely seen him play yet, must make amends. Oh, hang on, that reminds me, Arsenal are on the box tonight!
