    If you could pick 1 player from each PL team who would you choose.

    You need to choose so you can make a possible team, so no just picking the best striker from each team. Ideally 2 goalkeepers, 8 defenders, 6 midfielders & 4 strikers.

    Here's my squad.

    Arsenal - Bacary Sagna
    Aston Villa - Darren Bent
    Blackburn Rovers - Christopher Samba
    Bolton Wanderers - Gary Cahill
    Chelsea - Michael Essien
    Everton - Tim Howard
    Fulham - Bobby Zamora
    Liverpool - Steven Gerrard
    Manchester City - Carlos Tevez
    Manchester United - Nemanja Vidic
    Newcastle United - Steven Taylor
    Norwich City - Zak Whitbread
    Queens Park Rangers - Adel Taarabt
    Stoke City - Robert Huth
    Sunderland - Craig Gordon
    Swansea City - Steven Caulker
    Tottenham Hotspur - Gareth Bale
    West Bromwich Albion - Peter Odemwingie
    Wigan Athletic - Charles N'Zogbia
    Wolverhampton Wanderers - Ryan Jarvis

    My starting 11 would be a 3-5-2 with Howard, Sagna, Samba, Cahill, Vidic, Bale, Essien, Gerrard, N'Zogbia, Bent & Tevez.

    Really? Back when I was a student, I had to yomp back to Sheffield after a night out there - and didn't speak to the bloke who suggested we have a night out in Donny for a week...

    I disagree, I think the squad of 20 I chose was quite strong.

    Parker won writer's player of the year whilst playing for the worst team in the Premiership <ok> Thanks for explaining the theory that the teams that finish higher will tend to have better players, I must admit I'm still struggling to get my head around it.

    I'm not saying you could make a team that would win the Prem with it but I think you could still make a strong 11 and I think my 11 of Howard, Sagna, Samba, Cahill, Vidic, Bale, Essien, Gerrard, N'Zogbia, Bent & Tevez isn't bad at all.

    That's nothing to do with what you're attempting to say though. In the last 6 months 2 top 6 clubs have spent around £90mill on 4 players from outside the top 6. There ARE top players at lower clubs.

    I'd start Hoolahan instead of Taarabt to be honest.
