Des Walker at his best was better than any England defender last night. Andy Hinchcliffe would have put our free kick takers to shame. Connor Wickham would surely have done better than Kane. Michael Gray in his prime. Ross Barkley Benik Afobe Michail Antonio There's a bit of choice. at their respective primes this team would have done better than that shambles last night. Pressman Marshall Lees Walker Hinchcliffe Barkley C Palmer Lee Afobe Wickham Antonio bench grant holt carson Steve Watson michael gray Steve Watson on the bench?...he'd be the first name down and captain for me....Lees and Hutchinson would be my centre back pairing......David burrows would come in to the thinking as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's about a Wednesday team managed by Carlos, if he could pick from players from the last fifteen years to win the euros. I know it's ridiculous but there's not much else going off.

elyowl1 Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 4 hours ago, Costello 77 said: I take your point completely. I was wondering if Carlos was managing a Wednesday team to win the euros with the playing roster of the last fifteen years. How do you think he would have done it? Nationality aside. I didn't put it very well at first. A lot of decent players picked already , and nobody has chosen any non English players as allowed by the OP , so I will add Westwood Bannon and Sibon into the mix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceland v our strongest line up last season would be a close game. They have players who got relegated with Charlton and who couldn't make it into Cardiff's starting Xl. So my answer to your op is last year's team. And "team" is the key word. Iceland played like a team who knew each other's game. England played like eleven strangers, several of whom were asked to play out of position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elyowl1 Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 I don't if I should laugh or cry , the vast majority of the last 15 years have been terrible , yet we have had some decent players , the problem being we rarely had them in their prime . The one player I forgot to add was Wim Jonk , 1st season was ok , second season couldn't be arsed on the pitch , 3rd season just couldn't be arsed and was "injured " obviously didn't fancy second tier football.
