Gary Bailey

Gary Neville
Rio Ferdinand
Gary Pallister
Phil Neville

Beckham
Scholes
Robson
Charlton
Hill

Rooney

Owen? Was great for England in his early years.

Nicky Butt

one of the best players in a tournament ,something not many English players can boast...

presumably you left out coppell because england finished his career?

not sure why you left out edwards, though.

Go for the ones I saw.

Foster
G.Nev
Rio
Pally

so would I, but I think this thread is probably ok as far as injuries, tiring them out and associating with jt is concerned.

Stepney

GNev
Pally
Bruce
Byrne

Robson
Scholes
Edwards

Charlton
Viollet
Taylor

never saw the pre-Munich boys but that lot would be unbeatable with ridiculously good mf and defence. Prefer to pick the cb pair rather than Rio but a hard one.

edit: I reckon it'd be better with Viollet added up front at Nobby's expense. Don't think we'd need him with Big Dunc and Robbo.

basically Pele rated his performance against Argentina.

Butt being a 'star' for England in the 2002 WC is something of a myth Ive always thought - and before anyone starts, I loved Nicky Butt.

Tbf playing in a tournament for England and not looking utter £#%&! is an achievement in itself.

Can't leave out Edwards or his modern day incarnation.
