Thanks: Gave 963, Got 1,114 | Best ever Premiership XI?
Been to the pub tonight to watch Chelsea v Barcelona (great match) and we discussed our best ever Prem XI. We had a good mix of City / United / Liverpool / Bolton and even one Chelsea fan and we came up with :
Schmeicel
Irwin
Bruce
Adams
Pearce
Le Tissier
Keane
Viera
Giggs
Shearer
Henry
What do you reckon? Think Abramovich has enough cash to buy all them?

Man this is a good question!!!
Can't really narrow it down to just 11 players as it's all a bit subjective and slightly man utd bias!!
Schmichael (currently Cech but not proven over numerous season)
Irwin
Adams (or Terry)
Bruce (or Pallister)
G Neville
Beckham
Veira (or Keane)
Scholes (or Gerrard)
Giggs
Any two from the following list Henry,Shearer,Cole (still scoring at the top level), Van Nistelrooy, Rooney?.
Will probably edit it once i think of some more!!!

Tricky one this! I've included a few subs because it's impossible to pick just 11!
_________Schmeichel__________ G. Neville__Adams__Terry__A. Cole Giggs__Vieira __Cantona__Gerrard
________Henry__Shearer_______
Subs: Seaman, v. Nistlerooy, Bergkamp, Zola, I.Wright, Keane, Pires

This is spooky cos we were discussing current Premiership XI.
I went for:
Cech
Finnan Carragher Terry Cole (if fit)
Makelele
Gerrard Lampard
Rooney Van Nistlerooy Henry
That team would kick arse!

I did see, but it was aimed at the majority. Personnaly I'd have Cantona over Van Nistelrooy.
