    If you could pick any player that pulled a Leeds shirt on in the 90's (and let's forget what they did or who they went to in some cases just for the fun of it), players who when at their best played for us, I personally had a job leaving Bowyer out of my starting 11 and Mel Sterland sadly never made the bench.

    4-4-2

    1 - Nigel Martyn
    2 - Gary Kelly
    3 - Tony Dorigo
    4 - David Batty
    5 - Lucas Radebe
    6 - Jonathan Woordgate
    7 - Gordon Strachan
    8 - Tony Yeboah
    9 - Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink
    10 - Gary McAllister
    11 - Gary Speed

    Subs: Wetherall, Kewell, Bowyer, Cantona, Wallace

    Jimmy Floyd Piggybank? you jest!

    Eric would have to be in there,
    Danny Mills keeps stalking me (last three times I have taken the Mrs out for meal he has been there) but I thiink he would be in at full back.

    Think I'd have Robert Molenaar on the bench instead of Wetherall

    hmmmm lets have a think

    I'd go

    GK -Martyn
    RB - Kelly
    LB - Dorigo
    CB - Radebe
    CB - Fairclough
    MF - Strachan
    MF - McAllister
    MF - Speed
    MF - Batty
    F - Bridges
    F - Cantona

    Subs

    Lukic
    Woodgate
    Bowyer
    Wallace
    Hasselbaink

    Not much difference between Ristac's selection, other than I preferred Michael Bridges in the squad compared to Tony Yeboah, and I named a reserve keeper. I would have named Robinson instead of Lukic, but he didnt have that many appearances during the 90's, so even thought I think he was a better keeper than Lukic, i'm not sure if he qualifies :)

    When you look through the options of who we could all pick we certainly had plenty of quality to choose from.
