Best Ever Premiership XI

Barclay's have run a poll and come up with this:

Aside from the shit centre-back pairing, some of the ABU comments at the bottom are quite painful to read.

Idiots not even considering Cantona, picking Gerrard over Keane etc.

@#%&!s.

i wouldn't pick evra or becks and possibly not cantona.

Ronaldo has to be there.

Robbie Fowler in his Liverpool prime was unstoppable and easily the best striker in Europe

we know that 'cos of his vast european experience. i bet tromso and helsingborgs were shitting themselves when they heard the nose-plastered £#%&!wit was coming their way.

Scott Terrio (Liverpool) says...

This starting 11 defines why Manchester United fans are so widely and rightly disrespected. Know little about the game and are United fans, not football fans. Glory hunters.

Cantona should be, turned up to England, won 5 titles in 6 seasons (though 1 was in the old Div 1 era) and was infamously banned for the other season. Revolutionised United and English football forever.

ronaldo over becks all day

and you cant not have shearer in your team, for me it would be him and henry.

Anyone who doesn't have Cantona in their team is either a total £#%&!ing moron JCL, or too young to remember him properly.

He is one of the biggest reasons that United went on to to dominate English football in the 90's. Totally changed the biggest club in the country.

He should be the first name on that team sheet, without a doubt.

Yep, Ronaldo over Becks for me as well.

But I'd have Shearer and Cantona up-front.

Bergkamp?

i feel bad leaving keano out, he was incredible in his prime. maybe have him ahead of gerrard.

i cant be having cantona in the all time premiership 11, utd 11 then of course.

Gerrard over Keane?

The creasehead @#%&! still couldn't get the better over Keane when Keano couldn't £#%&!ing run

Ronaldo
Scholes
Keane
Giggs

Cantona
Van Nistelrooy

Subs:
Rooney
Henry
Lampard
Beckham

I dont think you've seen Eric play have you?

On the field it was almost unreal, some of the things that Eric did, superb overhead kicks, remarkable back-flicks, I’m sure the guy just took the piss.

Schmichael

Nev
Adams
Rio
Cole

Scholes
Keane
Ronaldo

Cantona
Shearer
Henry

Makes me laugh reading some of the comments. Even some of the dippers fans can't justify putting Gerrard in midfield so they've put him in at right back

He only played for a season after Euro 96, not really enough time for Ginners to get to appreciate him.
