Best Championship XI?

Looking in the other sections of the forum, I noticed a best UK-based XI, which was a bit daft to be honest, but following Fryatt and McLean's inclusion into Sky's Football League XI of the week - if you were to make a 'Best Championship XI' - who would be in it?

No daft rules, simply anyone playing in the Championship, but obviously you have to fill the relevant spots in the team - Tiger-tinted specs off, I think it'd be interesting to see how many City players make people's XI's.

 

good thread.. I like a challenge.. (since I've picked an argie wessie in there I'm risking getting booted off by our resident mod..)

Not a white ****e in site

 

dont know to be honest, i dont pay enough attention to the other teams really..
bullard and bellamy would definately be in my team, best 2 players in the league easily...
who would everybody have managing there team? even tho i know who most of you will say..id have to say warnock personally, dont like the man..but top championship manager..
brownie as assistant

 

Hmm good question that dj, tbh, i think i'd say Nigel Pearson! Couldn't have Mrs Doubtfire, he'd drive me crazy!

Closest for me so far I'd say. Would put Darren Pratley in for Leadbitter although that might not be the most defensive minded midfield. Don't really rate Alan Tate either. Other than that, thats a decent shout.

 

Closest for me aswell i think, except i'd have Bullard and Taraabt in there somewhere.

 

I think I'd include Manonne, Rosenior, Gerrard, Koren and Fryatt which means we have a great spine. Always a good sign.....

Konchesky vastly overrated - what has he done in the past 6 months? Would love to include Fryatt but hasn't really played before he came to us in January. There's also Koren, Taarabt, Bellamy, Graham and Becchio should also probably be in there but this is what I've gone for

 

Sven has to be the manager, he's a class act.

 

Don't need one, i'm all out attack! And as for Taraabt, he's obviously one of the best players in the division
