Picked himself. The c**t.

Very few surprises in there, the likes of Alonso, Torres, Suarez, Didi, Carra and Fowler

I agree with most of Gerrards selections, not much controversial in there,  Owen, Agger, Masch, Lucas would be in with a shout but I think he has got it right. 

Picked himself. The c**t.

        

If I was as good as Stevie I'd put myself in any team I had to pick too. LEGEND

Picked himself. The c**t.

And by the look of how that team would set up, on the right wing!!!

Torres, God and Suarez, imagine that line up. We might actually win something!

Surprised Riise is not there. We are still struggling to replace him.

If i has to pick my own best 11,chosen only from players i saw at there peak when i first started to go to games in late 1988(Ive not included Kenny or Hansen as they were at the end of there careers) it would be

GK Reina
RB R.Jones or Babbel (Cant decide on either player who would have both played so much longer but for injuries etc)
LB Risse or Johnson if you now class him as a LB
CB Sami
CB Carra
CM Gerrard
CM Alonso
RM Mcmanaman
LM Barnes
STR Fowler
STR Suarez (Torres and Owen at there peaks would be very close)

Nah. Arbeloa would be my choice.

For a supporting role suarez will make into my XI too. But for an out and out striker,it will be owen and torres.

 While I can't fault Stevie choosing Babbel at right back Steve Finnan did not do to bad in that position.

Wow, what a team that would be, Suarez playing a little deeper would be superb he would create 25 goals a season and notch nearly 20 himself. Surely top strikers in Europe can see this, with Stevie in Midfield the potential is there.

Hamman & Alonso - the stuff of dreams.

Wonder what Manager he would pick that he loved working under & which one he would like to manage his line up.

Can't find anything to disagree with in Stevie's team - would prefer natural LB but Johnson has been really impressive. Pepe's a shoe-in, as are Carra & Sami. Shows the impression Luis has created in one full season that he's straight in too.

Surprised Riise is not there. We are still struggling to replace him.

I'm not because he's one sh*te full back. Glen Johnson is a far better left back than Riise could ever hope to be. Babbel was F***ing amazing at right-back during the treble-season. That's why Gerrard hasn't picked the ginger spiced bag of sh*te.

Kind of get where the lads coming from though Huyt. Although Riise is not a world beater I don't think we'd had better there up until the start of last season. Off the top of me head anyway.

Hodgson

Hodgson

Don't knock the England manager

I have a feeling Gerrard might have gone for Houllier as manager.

Agree.

Don't knock the England manager

Not when his own performances are doing such a fine job without our encouragement.

I have a feeling Gerrard might have gone for Houllier as manager.

I do.

He was like a Father to Stevie .

I wonder if thats a 4-3-3 or as I hope: 4-3-1-2?

That front 3 is exceptional, a bucketload of goals and assists for each other.

I have a feeling Gerrard might have gone for Houllier as manager.

Gerrard would pick either Kenny Dalglish or Rafa Benitez

Gerrard would pick either Kenny Dalglish or Rafa Benitez

Reading his book he wouldn't pick Rafa over GH

Gerrard would pick either Kenny Dalglish or Rafa Benitez

Not a chance he'd pick Rafa.

I've a feeling he'd pick Hodgson sooner.

He'd take Rafa or the King.

That's a great team. Good enough for fourth maybe

And by the look of how that team would set up, on the right wing!!!

Beside Alonso in front of Didi is how he put it on the video HR.

Centre mid is his best postion after all

Riise should not be mentioned.  I still believe he put that goal in for CHelsea in the CL to pay off his debts.
