Had an argument with a Manc mate trying to pick a Liverpool/Man United current and all time team.
For current I said:
Reina
Rafael Ferdinand Vidic Evra
Gerrard Meireles
Nani Suarez Giggs
Berbatov
And then to the all time team:
Schmeichel
Neal Vidic Hansen Evra
Barnes Gerrard B.Charlton Best
Dalglish Rush
Players a little out of position, trying to fit them all in
Dalglish and Rush? No. Cantona would have to be in there and probably one of the two liverpool players, I don't know who was better so you would decide that. Sorry, but in my eyes, Scholes was a better player than Gerrard but I agree there is scope for debate. I don't know who neal is. I'd put Parker there. I'd be tempted to put Stam ahead of Vidic too. And what of Duncan Edwards?
Suarez would never get into the team. He played one game and you think he is better than Rooney? As an England fan do you honestly think that? Rooney just scored some goals and he has still been creating. Reina shouldn't be there. Man Utd have one more clean sheet than Liverpool AND have played a game less. VDS and Reina have been on par, so based on the clean sheets VDS would edge it.
Meireles? I haven't watched him ever. I don't know if he is playing well or not, but I'd take a guess that most punters would pick Fletcher in that position, though he hasn't played that well this season. Maybe even play Scholes there since Scholes has been a lot better then fletcher, but gerrard would have to do all the running and become more of a box to box midfielder.
