All-Time Football (Soccer) Team Draft

Recommended Posts

Paul McGrath

 

An extremely classy centreback for Man U, Aston Villa & Ireland. Fast, strong & tough in the tackle. Could perhaps have been even better if not for a battle with the bottle.

Chris Waddle adds another guy to the North-East tally, so does Steve Bruce - hmm, for a 'crappy' are up North that has pigeons, wippets, coal mines and all the other stereotypes, we do produce a lot of 'classy' footballers to be fair.

OK, I can't resist, I'm going to take one of Ron's dropped draft picks... maybe two.

 

Here's a lowdown of my bench so far:

 

FWD: Kevin Keegan

MID: Deco

 

I'm going to add:

 

Kaka'

Only in name...

He was the recipient of both the Ballon d'Or and FIFA World Player of the Year awards in 2007, and was named in the 2008 Time 100.

 

 

Not even Jonathon Pearce's shitty commentary can spoil this video.

 

and to 'sow' up the Defense or maybe score a 25 yard chip...

 

Phillip Albert

Porno 'tasche Geordie Folk Legend

Fun fact: Albert used to play up front before being turned into a defender, now owns a sausage factory in Belgium and no longer owns his Porno 'tasche. Was probably more comfortable attacking then he was defending, but that's not to say he was bad. Daglish sold him, and probably at the right time, as Albert's legs had gone by that point and was too slow for the evolving pace of the Premiership.

 

Some of Albert's goals... sorry they don't have a highlight reel for him.

 

There's no less then 8 players on offer in this draft over all in the first video being shown.

 

Alan Shearer

Peter Beardsley

David Ginola

Philip Albert

David Beckham

Peter Schmichael

Dennis Irwin

Gary Palister

and probably more...

haha Yeah, he's out of place in the grand scheme of things along side 'some' of the draft picks, but he has a close place in the hearts of every Newcastle fan over 20. He really did have some silky touches on the ball, and I don't think anyone will ever forget 'that' goal against Man U.

Aye, great striker, still can't understand why Man U released him, they STILL seem to trying to find someone to replace him.

When Ferguson says you're done with the club, he certainly seems to mean it.

 

Something just seems off about taking players from DQ'ed posters, seeing as how they deserved to be taken when they were.

Yeah, but you cant have an all time draft without players of Ronaldinho's stature.

 

I dont see why players shouldn't go back into the pool, especially since it wasn't done at a specific time to benefit any one person.

Stubborn Scottish mad man! Ruud is quality though, I was hoping he'd come to Newcastle when he left Man U, but can't blame him for going to Real.
