Moyes All-Time XI

[mahermi1]

James doesn't fit either of those categories though mate, so my condescension clearly didn't go anywhere near far enough.

Yes I agree don't ask how I put him on the bench, loved the way he played football but deffo shouldn't have been there.

The 2009 FA Cup final team that was missing 3 absolutely key players through injury?

 

[mahermi1]

Yes got carried away with that one.

I also had Lukaku down earlier I think I'll just delete myself from this thread all together.

The whole spine of the team, you never know but I feel we would have won that final with them in.

Has to be how they were at the peak under Moyes.
Including people that became world class later, or somewhere else doesn't fit the task
Otherwise you just include Rooney and it makes a mockery of the whole thing.

I went Rooney as it was Moyes who introduced him and between them delivered an iconic Premier League moment. Also in some ways Rooney was as good and exciting as he ever was in that first season. All that being said, I get your point.

Donovan

I've been upsetting some of the Americans...

I want to show my appreciation for a cultural icon in his time of need. Have you not heard? He feels disabled since losing his hair.

Well done

Don't think so.

He played in the academy spring 2013. Maybe he was on the bench but he didn’t play until Martinez took over.

 

[Swartzy]

….i admit to getting mixed up with who played under each manager etc, but in terms of players I’ve enjoyed watching I’d have to have Baines with Pienaar. Cahill a definite. Loved Rooney but I can’t have him in terms of his longevity with the club;

Pickford
Coleman
Jagielka
Branthwaite
Baines
Fellaini
Cahill
Pienaar
Mirallas
Yakubu
Ndiaye



Subs; Howard, Yobo, Osman, Saha, Arteta,

Arteta on the bench

Not sure I’d take Branthwaite ahead of Lescott at this stage. Lescott and Jagielka were top quality internationals.

Also, Martyn vs. Pickford is also a tough call.

Martyn

Coleman Jagielka Lescott Baines

Gibson Garner/Carsley

Arteta Fellaini Pienaar

Yakubu​

This would be some team if everyone was hitting their peak levels!
