Danny Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Within your own lifetime... Seaman Neville - Ferdinand - Terry - Cole Hargreaves/Carrick - Lampard Beckham - Rooney - Gerrard Owen As you can see I've struggled to make some choices there 😂 I think Lampard was a better deeper midfielder than Gerrard and probably could have worked together under those circumstances. Always thought Carrick was criminally underused. Rooney could push on with Owen and Gerrard could be afforded a freer role not consigned to the left wing, more for defensive shape if anything. Obviously no Scholes, I think retiring so early takes him out of the equation. I'm sure the Germans, Spaniards and Brazilians will enjoy this topic more than the English 😂 Everyone will enjoy it more than the Scottish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toinho Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 In terms of performances for Australia and considering we made the WC in 74 (wasn't born) and then 06, it's going to be a fairly recent side. Schwarzer Wilkshire Neill Moore Chipperfield Emerton Grella Bresciano Kewell Cahill Viduka Basically the 06 side. Aloisi unlucky to miss out, as was Culina. If we had that 06 side now - I'd bet on us to go through to the second round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're thinking the latter, Alston HAS to be in, but he was a semi-pro so you wouldn't include him in the other team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But today Quiroga, Chumpitaz, Cubillas, Sotil and Oblitas would all be playing for the world's best clubs! Actually Sotil is a Barça legend.

Even though we were a really strong side there we still felt like underdogs with it being our first WC in so many years. If we had that side going into our fourth WC in a row we'd feel like potential quarter finalists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASF Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 GK - Eduardo RB - Miguel CB - Carvalho CB - Meira LB - Coentrão DM - Costinha CM - Maniche AM - Deco RW - Figo LW - Ronaldo FW - Nuno Gomes I abstained myself of including any of the players that will play, tomorrow, their first WC match. Eduardo ahead of Ricardo for me. Only conceded one goal in 2010 and Villa was off-side. I left out Pepe, because in 2010 he was used more as a defensive mid and in 2014 he was the one who started making things go to the dogs, by being sent-off against Germany. The midfield of 2006 was brilliant and up front I preferred Nuno Gomes to Pauleta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6666 Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Firstly, correct it to - Country's Secondly - Seaman Ferdinand --- Terry G. Neville ------------------------ A. Cole Carrick Scholes ------ Gerrard Lampard Owen --- Rooney Don't actually think Gary Neville was that great but he was just consistent. Carrick has gotten to the point that he's actually overrated rather than underrated but he obivously should've played more and probably the best we had in that position but England unfortunately didn't find out about defensive midfielders or formations other than a flat 4-4-2 until probably 5 years ago...
