    Well, to start the one playing 5-3-2. Negative as that is though :)

    I'd also have Pulis in for Mayuka.

    That sold team would be lucky to get 14th - assuming you mean with each player at their current ability level?

    Yep current ability level, just wanted to gauge peoples opinions on the club's apparent sell to buy policy (although I don't think the club had much option about selling most of the players).

    I notice you left Bale out of the 'sold' side <laugh>

    And Walcott. Here's question; if we still had Bale, Chamberlain and Walcott, as well as Classsie, Davis and Tadic, would Lallana get a game?

    They were both sold before the Liebherr's takeover....Yeah, I think that Lallana, at his peak , would play a fair bit.

    I know Alderweireld doesn't count, but he was the best.

    If we had Alderweireld, Schneiderlin and Clyne still then we would be top four this year; all three would slot straight in. Shaw and Oxlade-Chamberlain would also be in contention. Lambert, Lallana and Lovren would be in too if they were still playing as well as they did for us!!
