Banks Alf Ramsey Bell Finney sub. Rooney no Lamps, Stevie G or Beckham, I'd put Scholes above them anyway.

Ferdinand Terry Campbell Walker.........Carrick.........Cole Lampard Gerrard Kane Rooney If I had a choice of all players post 2000, I'd go for the above. To have the balance it doesn't have Scholes, but I'd say it's tough to beat. Edited by ambrose7 (18 Nov 2022 2.47pm)

Interesting! Another exposure of my youth but I'm only picking from my lifetime (I've seen play) and thinking of players in their prime so I'd go: Hart Ashley Cole Gerrard Rooney
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

'Greatest ever Olympics moments' inevitably becomes 'Greatest ever Olympics wins by people from GB' like noone else ever won an Olympic diving gold medal before Tom Daley did.

'Scuse me, but Geoff Hurst anyone? World Cup hat trick must be worth a mention.
Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled. |

The only reason he’s not in my eleven is because I was too young and I consider him before my time. He’s still one of our top scorers even though he played in a time when we didn’t play 3 or 4 crap teams in every qualifying group
