Currently playing best 11 (3 Viewers)

[harvey098]

As we have a week to wait, something a bit different to think about.

What would your starting 11 be out of anyone who has ever played for us that’s still currently playing. (You can have them in their prime whether that form came before or after their stint with us).

I went 4-3-3

GK- K. Schmeichel
RB - Cranie (struggled with this, sure I’m missing someone!)
CB - Dann
CB - Fadz
LB - Maatsan
Mid - Henderson
Mid - Hamer
Mid - Maddison
Att - Wilson
Att - Gyok
Att - Armstrong

And where would that team / your chosen team finish in the premier league?

Take Armstrong out and put in jacob murphy on the wing , because Murphy can do it in the prem and Armstrong can't

Fair comment. Have to admit to being surprised at how well Murphy has done

 

[Greggs]

Hamer better than a prime Joe Cole?

If including current players only Gyo for Akpom would be different.

Gone with Murphy at RB just because he played one game there for Newcastle earlier this season and there aren't many decent alternatives!

Purely for balance, I'd sacrifice 1 striker (Armstrong) for a defensive midfielder (Sheaf) as Dann and Fadz are both lacking pace and mobility and would benefit from a defensive shield in front of them.

Someone like Sheaf would also allow Hamer and Henderson to venture forward more and provide a link to the 2 strikers, and Sheaf could bring the ball out of defence and use his passing range to put us on the front foot.

Cork and Hamer over Norwood? Dann over Ostigard? Really?

Cork and Dann have over 500 Premier league appearances.

Cork and Dann have over 500 Premier league appearances.

Fair enough I was doing it as of their ability now. In that case I agree but Hamer is definitely out then.
