                  Dubravka

 

          Schar Lascelles Coloccini

Debuchy                              Enrique

                Cabaye  Tiote

 

                  Ben Arfa

 

                  Cisse  Ba

That's pretty  much the team I'd pick... might stick krul in goal instead of dubs... some of his performances where unreal at the  start of the decade  that on in 2013 against  spurs springs to mind...

Subs:

Dubs

Lejeune

Wijnaldum

Santon

Perez

Remy

Sissoko

Think Gayle deserves  an honorable  mention  for his goals in the championship season.... and although  hes turned into a wanker nolan for his role in the 1st 2 years of the decade .... if he didnt do/say what he did this summer he probs would of been in the team

Surprised by the amount of Sissoko picks. Guess people are basing him on his Spurs CM form as he rarely played there for us and when he did he was pretty poor

 

I thought Sissoko should have stayed as a CM for us.  Big, strong, pacy and mobile he would have made a very good box to box guy and he would have developed better in the middle of the pitch. I thought he lost a lot when we moved him out to the wing.

I mean it's the old debate of should you pick a player based on how good they could be or how good they generally were. Sissoko is a fantastic player, sometimes, and it is clear it's not just that he was erratic for us, his wandering form seems consistent, dropping in and out of teams, impressing then disappearing. I think it's fair to give players in these rankings benefit of the doubt mostly and pick based on them at their best, but really can't give Sissoko that much credit, he played fairly miserably for a while.

Ben Arfa - Cabaye - Wijnaldum - Sissoko

Mate, you have Ritchie as a RB on a back four.

 

He played as a RB a few times last season, no? Thought Janmaat was good there for us. Four goals and 10 assists in two seasons. Although it is kinda nice to see his career hasn’t gone too great since leaving us.
