Ashley Cole and Johnny Byrne would be challenging for a place

Ashley Cole although brilliant, he would have to switch to right back or something, because Kenny Sansom is the best left back to ever play the game

I was informed a long time ago that Ashley Cole was originally a striker.At the age of 14 he opted to fill-in at left-back at the Arsenal academy due to an injury and he remained in this position.

weird to think Martin Kelly and Fraizer Campbell both played for England... also shout out to Andy Johnson but can't really argue with Wrighty up front

Yes Campbell played one game for England .. when did it all go wrong

well done sir, maintaining Budgie's rightful place - Byrne for Salako please, I believe Johnny was a deep-lying forward after the Don Revie/Nandor Hidegkuti model, a sort of 'number 10' - he'd fit in just behind Wrighty with Taylor and Zaha on either wing.

... and fine pedigree etc blah blah but he's only played 20 odd games for us - so Cahill is out and replaced by JIM CANNON - what have we been doing? Cannon should be first on the team sheet, Bryne second, Sansom third, I'd have John Jackson in goal

But as he never played for Scotland and under residency rules, he could’ve actually played for England

So we’ll let you off
