The idea comes from a recent thread about making a team with surnames starting with same letter, which I thought was good fun.

What about using players with the same first name? I found that not so easy!

DAVID

GK De Gea (Man utd)

RB Webb (Chelsea)
CB Luiz (Chelsea, Arsenal)
CB O’Leary (Arsenal)
LB Unsworth (Everton)

MF Beckham (Man utd)
MF Rocastle (Arsenal)
MF Silva (Man City

F Ginola (Spurs)
F Villa (Barcelona)
F Trezeguet (Juventus)

Frank Lampard sen.

Frank Rijkaard
Frank Lampard jun.
Cesc (Francesc) Fabregas
Isco (Francisco Arlacon Suarez)
Frenkie de Jong

Francesco Totti
Francis Jeffers
Couldn't think of any fullbacks, so I'm going with 5 in midfield (Frenkie has to count here :D ) and apparently Lampard's dad was a left back. Upfront Arsenal legend Francis Jeffers completes the team. ;)

e: I'm sure there's a good team to be made with Diego if someone got time. (Godin, Lugano, Diego (Brazil), Milito, Forlan and that guy from Argentina for a start)

You could slot in Leboeuf and de Boer to form your back 4 and Stapleton as striker!

Roberto Rojas

Roberto Perfumo
Roberto Ayala
Roberto Rosato
Roberto Carlos

Roberto Donadoni
Roberto Di Matteo
Roberto Rivelino

Roberto Mancini
Roberto Firmino
Roberto Baggio

As a pure team of only one name “no Roberts”, I think this line up would be pretty hard to beat! I am sure I am forgetting some key “Robertos” though!
