[waynerovers]

Watching Giggs goal today gave me the idea, I know its not original but its always fun.

Mine

Schmeichel

Neville Adams Ferdinand Irwin

Ronaldo Gerrard Viera Giggs

Shearer Henry

[neekoy]

Taibi

Bogarde Bramble Traore Babyaro

Bowyer A. Smith Ki Hyeon Luque

Balaban Grabbi

[LeChuck]

Bit harsh on Bowyer, he was a brilliant goalscoring box-to-box midfielder whilst at Leeds. Like so many other players, his career went permanently downhill when he decided to join Newcastle.

I would go with:

Schmeical

G.Neville Ferdinand Adams Irwin

Veira

Gerrard Keane

Cantona

Shearer Henry

I was thinking about Ronaldo but at the moment he has at best had 2 good seasons. the guys in my team sustained world class performances for a number of years.

[LeftWinger]

Mine would be:

Schmeichel

G.Neville

Adams

Campbell

Evra

Ronaldo

Vieira

Scholes

Giggs

Henry

Shearer

[Cocker]

Scmeichel

Berg

Hendry

Adams

Le Saux

Ronaldo

Keane

Gerrard

Bergkamp

Shearer

Henry

Subs

Flowers, Stam, Dixon, Cantona, Kanchelskis, Giggs, Zola

(If I was being honest with myself Jansen and Lars Boehenan (speeling I know) would be in there as well )

[LeftWinger]

Here's another one - if you had to pick a current Premiership eleven, but could only pick one player from any team, who would you go for (It's quite difficult actually)

I think mine would be:

Given (Man City)

Johnson (Portsmouth)

Warnock (Rovers)

Upson (West Ham)

Jagielka (Everton)

Ronaldo (Man Utd)

Fabregas (Arsenal)

Lampard (Chelsea)

Young (Villa)

Torres (Liverpool)

Defoe (Spurs)

[Mafioso]

GK James (portsmouth)

CB Terry (chelsea)

CB Nelsen

RB Chimbonda (spuds)

LB Bridge (man city)

CM Fabregas (arsenal)

CM Arteta (everton)

RM Ronaldo (man utd)

LM Downing (boro)

CF Agbonlahor (villa)

CF Torres (liverpool)

Subs:

GK Myhill (hull)

DF Hangeland (fulham)

DF Ferdinand (sunderland)

MF Parker (west ham)

MF Taylor (bolton)

CF Zaki (wigan)

CF Owen (newcastle)

Shearer on bench.... Are you a complete div?

[Mafioso]

its called an opinion

[Mc Love]

Cant believe people have left out Van der Sar!! He just broke a record for having the most clean sheets, he is surely worth a mention

[snatchymcsnatch]

Hard to split Keane and Vieira but here goes:

(GK) Schmeichel

(LB) Irwin

(CB) Campbell

(CB) Adams

(RB) Dixon

(CDM) Vieira

(LW) Ronaldo

(RW) Beckham

(CAM) Cantona

(S) Shearer

(S) Henry

Subs: Gerrard, Ashley Cole, Di Canio, Zola, Van Der Sar, Giggs

[LeftWinger]

If I'd have picked a subs bench I'd have put Andy Cole on it. I think he's the all-time leading Premiership goalscorer from open play (he wasn't a penalty taker remember). I think I'm right in saying that only Bergkamp and Giggs have more assists from open play as well.

Good shout - got me thinking though - if I was to pick an "all time premiership substitute" I could look no further than Solksjaer (however you spell it)

If it was a team that had to work together I would probably put Sheringham alongside Shearer instead of Henry I think - what a shame we never got to see them play together at club level.

Umm.. I woud probably stick Stuart Pearce in there as well...

[LeChuck]

...........Schmeichel

Neville Adams Hendry Irwin

.............Keane

......Ronaldo.....Giggs

..........Le Tissier

He's not that special of a keeper imo, very mistake prone he just has the fortune of playing behind a spectacular team, would be interesting to see how many saves he's had to make in those games.

[philipl]

...........Schmeichel

Neville Adams Hendry Irwin

.............Keane

......Ronaldo.....Giggs

..........Le Tissier

.......Shearer...Henry

Swap Le Saux for Irwin and you've got my pick there.

[waynerovers]

At Fulham he didnt have a good defence in front of him and he always stood out, won champions league with two clubs and has a reputation of doing well in penalty shootouts in big games and he's brought stability to a United defence that was never the same since Schmeichel left. He's an outstanding keeper.

[American]

I'll never get VDS' gifting us the 3-4 Easter match with letting in 2 soft goals.

One of the reasons that he has such a streak is that Ferdinand has been mentioned by several on here, and I could argue that Vidic is better.

[Balwer]

If I'd have picked a subs bench I'd have put Andy Cole on it. I think he's the all-time leading Premiership goalscorer from open play (he wasn't a penalty taker remember). I think I'm right in saying that only Bergkamp and Giggs have more assists from open play as well.

Actually Shearer is still the leading scorer from open play. I saw a Martin Tyler article on Sky Sports a couple of weeks ago on this exact topic.
