    Would your first XI be any different?

    For the mighty gooners, I'd say only Cazorla and Gnabry would be in our first XI.

    Southampton would be interesting!

    Leno

    Bellerin
    Holding
    Sokratis
    Tierney

    Guendouzi
    Cazorla

    Auba
    Ceballos
    Gnabry

    Laca

    Never mind Saints, Chelsea would be unreal.

    We’d have Ronaldo, Pique, Herrera, Ibra, Di Maria, Zaha and Daley Blind.

    We’d also have Sergei Milinkovic-Savic’s younger brother and that would mean SMS would be here by now.

    You’d still have Lee Cattermole and that Irish Mong who flaps every time he sees a poppy.

    Scholesy would still get in the midfield. Someone else could do the running.

    Technically Scholes never left. I'm not sure how this thread works. If you're having Scholes, I'm having Brian Clough up front and Charlie Hurley in defence.

    So you'd have Lallana and Lambert over Mane? Hmm interesting.

    Based on what they did for us all day long, Sadio was a bit inconsistant for us TBH and he wasn't here as long of course.

    Fair enough. I'd have Mane with a blindfold on over Lambert and Lallana. But I get your point.

    If no players ever left we'd probably have a lot of dead bodies in the dressing room. Every ground would be like Millwall.
