Its tough to say RW, LW, and AM, as they all play so varied roles. Like, where would you put Nasri? Can play RW, LW or AM. Will have a go though

Attacking midfield mate. Some of my mates are horrendous.

Just done these in about 5 mins, so berate away. Probs missed 1 or 2. What you think?

GK. Cech, Reina, Hart

RB Sagna, Ivanovic, Rafael (i guess, not a lot to pick from)

LB Cole, Baines, Evra

CB Vidic, Terry, Ferdinand

RW Walcott, Nani, Young

LW Bale, Silva, Malouda

DM Essien, De Jong, Song

AM Fabregas, Nasri, Gerrard

No 9  Tevez, Drogba, Torres

No 10 Van Persie, Rooney, Ricardo Fuller


What are yours Pleno?


Title: Re: Top 3 in every position..
Post by: Josedinho on January 19, 2011, 02:06:41 PM
GK - Reina, Begovic, VDS

RB - Sagna, Ivanovic, Hutton

LB - Cole, Enrique, Evra

CB - Vidic, Ferdinand, Vermaelen (sp)

RW - Nani, Johnson, Young

LW - Bale, Malouda, Etherington

DM - De Jong, Essien, Fletcher

AM - Modric, Silva, Nasri

No 9 - Drogba, Tevez, Torres

No 10 - Van Persie, Van Der Vaart, Rooney

Based on this season. Off the top of my head. Assuming 1 position per player so cannot repeat Silva, Nasri etc.

On the same terms surely your mates pick of Gerrard is equally a joke?

Also, Lennon >>Young IMO


Title: Re: Top 3 in every position..

haha, its started already. Gerrard is a brilliant footballer, will have to play the injuries card on that one again as hes been out for a couple of months and only just getting back in the swing of things.

Lennon is better than Young i agree.

Oh, and hes not my mate, i fucking despise him.

Doing a prop with a mate where we pick top 20 players of all time and then ask frineds and whoever gets most +1's wins the prop. He is talking about having Cannavaro and Bergkamp as certs and how its so standard. Has to be in order too btw. Just going to put mine down quickly as got uni at 9 but will update it over next few days, suggestions too pls.

1.Pele
2.Maradona
3.Zidane
4.Johan Cruyff
5.Messi
6.Platini
7.George Best
8.Puskas
9.Eusebio
10.Gullit
11.Fat Ronaldo
12.?
13.Beckenbauwer
14.Shearer
15.Hagi
16.Ronaldo
17.Rooney
18.Maldini
19.Figo
20.Oliver Kahn

Pretty sure it was you that included Rooney in your all time top 20 footballers, LULLLLLLLLLLS

I guess that shows us that putting younger players into all time great lists is just absolutely ridiculous. I think I was swayed heavily by Mondatoo propaganda though, in my defence.

Post by: ChipRich on January 19, 2011, 02:47:08 PM
yeah, only 2 players id say in top 20 of all time that i can think of currently is Messi and Ronaldo. Still really young, both absolutely fantastic and always on form.

In fact, screw this best team and players of all time list and just say Barca


Title: Re: Top 3 in every position..
Post by: Horneris on January 19, 2011, 02:58:33 PM
I just see Number 9 as the main striker, aka Torres, Tevez, Drogba. Then number 10, a player who drops a bit deeper and isnt an out and out striker, aka a Rooney or a Van Perise.

hmmm

and?

cba doing another post because Rich and Josedinho's i agree largely with.

I definetly think Kolo Toure is better than Ferdinand (Kolo was voted best in the prem a few months back) and would have Micah Richards as RB #3.

Maybe Dzeko at 10 if you can without him being proven in the prem. Seen loads of amazing finishes from him on you tube.

CB - Vidic, Collocini, Jagielka

RW - Lennon, Jarvis, Nani

LW - Ben Arfa, Malouda, Bale

DM - Tiote, Essien, Barton

No 9 - Van Persie, Berbatov, Drogba

No 10 - Tevez, Gyan, Van Der Vaart

Was clearly just a plan all along from Pleno to try and make people react and argue when he puts the entire Newcastle X1 and Raul Mereiles (possibly the worst AM in the country this season) in there.

No way he's top 3 rb, he's better at cb but only just about top 15 in that position.

Which Newcastle players do you disagree with bud? The only questionable one is Joey Barton and I think he has been absolutely superb this season, without a doubt top 10 midfielders if not top 5. If I was trying to get as many Newcastle players in the team then I would obv have put Carroll in but I put Gyan from down the road in instead.


Title: Re: Top 3 in every position..
Post by: Horneris on January 20, 2011, 01:01:34 AM
Trust me Nolan is awful. He did well at start of season scoring goals, but now clubs are aware of hi they mark him and he doesnt offer anything.

If he plays for us in Premiership, we will 100% go down he is tez.

Carroll   11   
Nolan           10   
Ameobi   4   
Barton   2   
Best           3   
Lovenkrands     2   

9   Newcastle   22   3   29

Having Collocini in your top 3 cb's proves without doubt it a comedy selection.

Post by: ChipRich on January 20, 2011, 01:05:40 AM
You gotta be less biased imo!

Gotta disagree with your Ben Arfa shout, uve seen him play 4 games for you until he got injured. Theres no way you could possibly think he was the best LW in the prem from just 4 performances.

Your Collocini shouts pretty com.

And you cant possibly lol at my Gerrard AM shout, then include Raul 'no show for half a season' Meireles in your best 3 AM's.


Got to be a level, although i really dont think your joking.

Collocini is pure class. There are so many "decent" centre halfs, trust me he is pure quality. Didn't say Ben Arfa was the best, but think he is in top 3. Looking through each position its clear the premiership isn't THAT GREAT. I stand by my pics though.

I have always been against your Nolan stance, I dont for one min think he is a world class player, but for Newscastle he will score the goals that might make the difference come end of the season. But when someone tells me Collocini is class this really makes me question if you can see past the black and white blinkers? I mean I have seen him numerous times and each one hes looked like he is totally out of his depth and struggling. You put him next to a fit Woodgate and then you will realise what class actually is.

He's quick, good in the air, composed on the ball and fantastic in the air (espeically considering he is only 5"10 low centre of gravity ftw). A better version of Rio Ferdinand, he has a good relationship with his back four. He can be dirty when he needs to be, cheats when he needs to be, oh and he has fucking quality hair.

I have no real opinion of how good he is as I rarely watch a newcastle game for 90mins, but do you not think someone, even a half decent Prem team would have snapped him up while you were in the Chamionship, either in the summer or in the Jan if he was 'exceptional'?

He had a porr first season (See Thierry Henry/Robert Pires) and last year he really worked out in the gym and got big. He crushed the championship (obv) but people hadn't seen him in the Premiership apart from his dubious first season. He has had a fantastic first 4/5 months and anyone who saw the game on Sunday will see that he kept 24m man Darren Bent in his back pot and was absolutely brilliant. I think the commentators tongue is still hanging out of his rear (next to mine)

Based on a mixture of form and ability. I know Given is probably a weird choice but I deffo think he is wasted on the Man City bench and am shocked no one has bought him yet.

If you took a squad of the Premierships best players, gave them time to gell and make a team, maybe play some competitive matches, what price would you make them to beat Barca over two legs?

Odds on

Cech
Sagna, Vidic, Terry, Cole
Nani, Essien, Fabregas, Malouda/Bale
Tevez, Torres

Valdes
Alves, Puyol, Pique, Abidal
Busquets/Mascherano
Xavi, Iniesta
Messi, Pedro
Villa

Going on these sort of sides, over 2 legs i'd go Prem XI 10/11, Barca Evs (tight bookies prices 4/5, 10/11)

v close but Barcas defence is the issue which makes me swing this way.

Very for a prem XI side. There no Crouchy in there whos desperate for Bales crossing skills and Malouda better at passing the ball.

I was hoping people would concentrate on Camel's question that the rough team effort tho tbh.

Maybe its just my opinion that Barcelona are the best footballing team i have ever seen in my life (im 28).

There'd be more barca players in the prem team.

Title: Re: Top 3 in every position..

Hasn't Song been really attacking recently, seen him in the opposing area on countless occasions. I know Diaby sometimes plays upfront but much prefer him in the Veira role.

Haven't watched a huge amount of football this season tbf as I'm so fked off with it and rather just watch Barca put on a performance when I can but Friedel has been pretty awesome every year he's been in the premiership imo.

I had Vermaelen in my top 3 CB's.

I'm the same, the only team I always watch is Barca at the moment. They are just phenomenal. Better than I remember the Ajax side with Litmanen and Co in 95 and better than Milan with V Basten and Co and better than the invinsible Arsenal squad who also played some incred footie.
