bored as bat trying to get this stupid USB 2.0 port working. My ing computer doesn't pick it up at all and thought I share my procastination with you guys. I was thinking if you could hand pick a starting 11 from the premierleague, who would it be (for those who have an idea)?
Keeper: Shay Given
LB: Lee CB: Terry CB: Carragher RB: Finnan
LM: Robben CM: Gerrard CM: Cahill RM: Ronaldo
S: Henry s: Rooney
*Didn't pick Lampard because he doesn't operate well with Gerrard, who is a bigger match winner.
*Cahill obvious Aussie bias.
*Wingers were a hard choice. Although both Ronaldo and Robben belong in Hollywood, you cant deny there skill on the ball and ability to penetrate.
*Tottenham's Lee. In my opinion the most underated player in the league. Outstanding defensive attributes and has the ability to go forward. |

Keeper: Shay Given / Shaka Hislop (dont know if he plays anymore but he is nuts)
Left Back: Kolo Toure
Centre Back: John Terry
Right Back: Ashley Cole
Left Mid: Ryan Giggs (absolute gun player)
Central Mid: Paul Scholes & Steven Gerrard
Right Mid: Ronaldo??? Bit of a joke, but he has insane skills
Strikers: Thierry Henry & Wayne Rooney |

| I tried to pick my team based on this seasons form. Otherwise I would have had plenty more Gunners in there. Ash Cole hasn't played the entire season and Campbell isn't the same player he used to be. Fabregas just missed out for me. He is all class for a boy of 18. His vision and passing are unreal and will be the best midfielder in the world by the age of 25! |

| arsenal are one of the few top flight teams in the premierleague to bring through youngsters and make them into champions. teams like chelsea and man united just buy their good players after they are already established. i respect arsenal for that, but i would still headbutt arsene wegner if i was given the chance:whip: |

hehehehehe I was reading an article the other day and it was discussin Arsenal's current backline and how it cost Arsene the same amount for Glen Johnson of Chelsea (6million pounds, watching from the stands) yet Arsenal remain in this years CL and Chelsea are out. Only Senderos came to the club as a defender where as Toure, Flamini and Eboue were all bought as midfielders. |
