Schmeichel (Denmark)

Rafael (Brazil) Stam (Holland) Vidic (Serbia) Heinze (Argentina)


Fletcher (Scotland) Keane (Rep Ireland) Scholes (England)


Ronaldo (Portugal) Cantona (France) Giggs (Wales)

United only 11, one player per country

Dubious calls ?
Fletcher - Went up against some of the best midfielders in Europe, that a lot of our support would have swapped him for, but often came out on top.
Rafael - Picks himself, limited options unless you take Scholes out of the team and im not doing that.
Heinze - Wanted Irwin, but im not taking Keane out of the side.

Giggs got in there eventually Im thinking though, Ronaldo prefers the left as well. I dont want to leave Ruud out, he was a machine.

Gotta be a shit wum.

I want some grit in midfield, Giggs would be better suited to a more advanced role than in that 3. Taking Best out of the side, I feel more compelled to fit Giggs in somewhere, but im not sure which striker / forward id go with.

VDS (Holland)

Lauren (Cameroon)---Vidic (Serbia)---Rio (England)---Evra (France)

De Bruyne (Belgium)---Keane (Ireland)---Silva (Spain)

Ronaldo (Portugal)---Aguero (Argentina)---Giggs (Wales)

Very slim picking at right back if you don't take Neville.

GK: Van Der Saar (Holland)

LB: Cole (England)
CB: Vidic (Serbia)
CB: Kompany (Belgium)
RB: Lauren (Cameroon)

CM: Viera (France)
CM: Keane (Rep Ireland)
CM: David Silva (Spain)

LW: Gigga (Wales)
RW: Ronaldo (Portugal)
CF: Aguero (Argentina)

Schmeichel (Denmark)
Petrescu (Romania)
Azpilacuata (Spain)
Kompany (Belgium)
Vidic (Serbia)
Scholes (England)
Keane (Ireland)
Henry (France)
RVN (Holland)
Bale (Bales)
Ronaldo (Portugal)

I almost started a thread about the lack of worldy right backs.

At LB we have had Irwin, Evra and Ashley Cole.

At RB? A lot of good ones but no great ones - Walker, Petrescu, Lauren - only Gary Neville stands out for me.

good team that - D Silva is a really tidy player and hard to argue that Vieira doesn't deserve a place.

Yeah, he was decent and he's great on Strictly Come Dancing nowadays as Kevin Clifton too.

Some great shouts on here btw.

I'm going to do a combined team - from the votes so far.

Edit: can't be arsed

Ronaldo, Keane, Kompany and Aguero are pretty much nailed on.

Roland Nilson and Zabaleta were both class right-backs, to be fair. Current Liverpool right-back not bad either.
