There are some quality players up for free this season from the premier league. http://www.premierleague.com/staticFiles/14/79/0,,12306~162068,00.pdf Some of the notable ones are: Robert Pires Patrick Vieira Nigel Reo-Coker Lee Bowyer Marcus Bent Seb Larsson James McFadden Kevin Phillips Maik Taylor Marlon Harewood Ricardo Gardner Johan Elmander Zoltan Gera Diomansy Kamara Owen Hargreaves Sol Campbell Abdoul Faye Eidur Gudjohnsen Boudewjin Zenden Johanthon Woodgate Dean Kiely Matt Upson Jason Koumas Jody Craddock You could make a pretty good side from that (abeit getting on a bit and injury prone). Plus Tom Cruise, Mark Randall and Roarie Deacon from Arsenal.
How would this team do, if they could stay fit? Survive or not? Taylor Faye Woodgate Campbell Upson Zenden Vieira Hargreaves Pires Elmander Dudjohnsen
Well, if you could take that team with each individual in their prime, wow. A midfield including Vieira, Hargreaves and Pires? I could play on the wing and it'd still be a class act.
I'd play Upson instead of Sol, he had a few mares up at Newcastle. He's definitely close to retirement now.
