I know me and si picked a very similar 11 Bill but it doesn't strike me as odd. We are the same age ( I believe) so grew up watching the same players as fans.. I read the question to be the 11 you have watched.. So as much as I understand the importance and love for the likes of Billy Liddell, Phil Neal, St John, Souness, Clem and even the like of Albert Stubbins they all pre dated me in terns of watching them. It doesn't suprise me that me and Si had similar sides, I remember watching from the mid 80s on, 86 to be exact so I had that team, the late 80s Kenny side which a fair few of my side are in, that's probably the best side I've watched, then the early 90s Souness sides, Roy Evans, Gerard Houllier, Rafa Benitez, Kenny again, Brendan's tricky reds and that other fella.. An all time favorite of my time watching those and Si as well it doesn't suprise me we at every similar, yet I fully understand a gentleman of your generation wouldn't think twice about say Didi.. Yet in my time Didi was such a sound bloke and good player he gets in..If we all picked an all time 11 over our history it would probably be very similar.Anyway I just took it as half hour to stop worrying about the title than something else to get wound up about

Irrespective of how old you are I can't even bring myself to quote someone who throws players such as Finnan in there!
To be fair with those people though, if they want to name only players they've watched, choosing a RB is a difficult task for younger fans. If one doesn't like our current player of that position (and a lot of people don't), they're left with either Arbeloa or Finnan (not to mention the likes of Josemi, Kromkamp, etc). Finnan was a UCL champion and very reliable for years, I for one liked him very much.
don't look now JD but Crouchino has Finnan in his line up
I thought I would try and pick a Liverpool overseas side : Reina, Arbeloa, Skrtel, Hypia, Risse, Mascherano , Alonso, Garcia, Suarez, Kuyt. Leaving Torres to sulk on the bench
Sorry did not think of Craig, Gerry Byrne was not an overseas player, so would not qualify.
Ah I left out Beardsley. Ill change this to a "most adored 25 man squad thread
