We are famous for playing 442 for most of our history so I’m gonna stick to it even though it doesn’t allow some of our greatest players to get in.
GK - Banks
RB - Neville
CB - Moore
CB - Rio
LB - Cole
RM - Beckham
CM - Charlton
CM - Robson
LM - Barnes
ST - Greaves
ST - Shearer
Its quite hard actually. RB is definitely a weak area and I may be missing someone. My knowledge through the 70s and 80s isn’t great. Left wing is also a tricky one. Barnes has the ability to be in this team but his England career wasn’t great.
There are so many midfield options I’ve had to leave out. Stiles, Gerrard, Lampard, Gazza, Scholes, Ball.
Players like Waddle, Hoddle, Rooney and Beardsley missing as creative players because the rigid 442 doesn’t accommodate them properly. As a pure striker I couldn’t put Rooney above Shearer or Greaves.
