:eek:

In fairness, rumours of Bale and Ibrahimovic do worry me slightly. The cost and the injury history of Bale and the age of Ibra. :dunno:

How Celtic fans can criminally underrate Leigh Griffiths is beyond me. 107 goals in 137 starts and can't get in the team.

GK Jordan Pickford

LB Leighton Baines
CB John Stones
CB Phil Jagielka
RB Seamus Coleman

LM Steven Pienaar
CM Idrissa Gana Gueye
CM Gareth Barry
RM Mikel Arteta

ST Tim Cahill
ST Romelu Lukaku

Not a bad side at all. I would have loved to put Yakubu in but most of his work was done before 2010 so had to move Cahill up so I could slot Barry in there.

Not a fan of Stones but we have had some pretty bad centre backs. Heitinga and Distin both had their moments but were not consistent enough for me.

There is a worrying lack of modern players seeing how much we have spent. I dont count Baines as a current squad player and Coleman is on his way out too so it leaves is just with Pickford who the jury is still out on him, but it was him or Howard and I never rated Howard.

Arteta on the wing and Cahill as a central striker. MMH I want to look at your mind one day.

Right mid not right wing. Arteta played right mid loads for us. Cahill was always a striker. I dont know why everyone had him down as a midfielder, he wasn't a good passer of the ball or anything. He was a bit of a weird second striker/target man combo.

Brilliant goalscorer at a certain level but when you watch them play there's no comparison between him and Dembele or Edouard.

Slim pickings when you've been out of the premier league since 2012. I think that GK + back 4 was from 2010. And we've got a world cup winner in MF :cool:
Looking at the player list, it might be easier to do a worst team of the decade...

Nzonzi has had a strange career.....



Begovic

Wilkinson - Shawcross - Huth - Pieters

Nzonzi - Whelan

Shaqiri- Bojan - Arnautovic

Walters

Not bad considering we've been crap for nearly four years

Etherington deserves a mention but couldn't fit him in with the other wide players; could have included Fuller and Delap but their best years were at the end of the previous decade

The RFF thing passed be my somehow when I posted a bit more regularly- bit late to start now. Hope you're doing well - I don't post much but it's great that this place is still going

Does Lawson post these days? He should at least come on to brag when Liverpool win the title - he's earned it

You have played RFF before... probably one of the first seasons on here.

I see that mostly people are doing their clubs. Is anyone doing the whole Premier League decade? I was struggling to come up with a left back. I went with Baines but felt like I was maybe forgetting someone. Not that anyone was asking but the rest was:

De Gea

Azpilicueta, Kompany, Vertoghen, Baines

Sterling, Kante, Toure, David Silva

Kane, Aguero.

I became a full-time fan in the 2011-12 season so I might be missing a couple from the beginning of the decade too

Ashley Cole? Was still good for 3-4 years this decade.

That was the other name in my head but it was more on reputation than what I remember watching. So I assumed he was more a '00s player than an '10s player

Never too late to start.
