Maybe an all time England VI

Good shout that. I'll try to drum up some categories for it. As I said possibilities are endless. I was also thinking of a worst ever Albion XI.

XI would be better - but I agree a England team would be interesting - or with summer approaching a Sussex team

Sadly you'd have to find another person to run a Sussex one. I enjoy the odd T20 match and the occasional 40/50 overs but my picks would go:

Dr.Smith.
Gatting
Prior
Err um. That guy, you know the one who pissed on a bouncer.
The guy who bowls fast.

Gutted Mayo has gone too btw. Was my next pick, need to find a new LB now.

My left back may lack pace but reads the game well and was a key part of our promotion-winning side a couple of years ago. He sees my defensive unit complete as well, and will be played as the defensive foil to Napier's potential to not track back.

He also looks like John Terry but I won't hold that against him

[MENTION=1349]turienzo's lovechild[/MENTION] is up.

turienzo's lovechild · Mar 9, 2014

He may be young in his footballing career, but he's endeared himself to me to the extent that he's already one of my all time favourite albion players

ROHAN INCE

turienzo's lovechild · Mar 9, 2014

[MENTION=225]Hamilton[/MENTION] step up to the plate

Hamilton · Mar 9, 2014

I’m drafting in Albion’s record goal-scorer and the first Albion player to receive an England cap.

TOMMY COOK scored 123 goals in 209 appearances. He also scored 8 hat tricks – another club record.

Not only was he rather good at football, he also got a call up to play cricket for England.
[MENTION=13376]albionalex[/MENTION] you're on next.

Good pick I typed his name before changing my mind and picking Bissett for one of my central defenders which was where he played instead of Fozzie in the first Cup final but I decided to pick a full time CB

albionalex · Mar 9, 2014

Paul Dickov to partner Leo up front.

stripeyshark · Mar 10, 2014

Back to [MENTION=13376]albionalex[/MENTION] then...

Rohana · Mar 10, 2014

If nobody else has realised the genius that is [MENTION=16080]Kazenga <3[/MENTION]'s team then we might as well all go home.

Good luck finding a LB, and making them all fit in to categories, sir.

The struggle is real, was toying with a 3-5-2 but would be too unbalanced with the players I've got. Could all potentially unravel here.

Probably because I'm tired but I can't see it! [MENTION=16080]Kazenga <3[/MENTION] [MENTION=15934]Rohana[/MENTION]
