It’s a cracking team though and your point is absolutely valid. Wouldn’t have picked Forsyth. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea at one time had Hazard, Mata, De Bruyne and Salah - Imagine those 4 playing at the top of their game with Matic at the time behind and Costa upfront - they would have been frightening. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moyes would be at least as good a choice as any current Englishmen. Very unlikely. But as well as Ferguson at the tail end of the old Division one George Graham and Kenny Dalglish were splitting titles between them. From 1986 until Wenger in 1998 only the 2 Howards got 1 title apiece the rest was won by the 3 Scots. Even 4 italians have won it since Wilkinson. You and Compo (and Busters XI) are welcome to place any Pre-Premier League team. When pundits go on about someone breaking Shearer's 260 tally they forget he has got 283 top flight goals with 23 coming 1988-1992.
