1 to 11

Doctor Zaius

Since the introduction of squad numbers has a club fielded a team numbered 1 to 11? (excluding Man Utd in the 50th anniversary for Munich)

What is your club's current 1 to 11 and is it any good?

This is Arsenal's.

1. Almunia
2. Diaby
3. Sagna
4. Fabregas
5. Vermaelen
6. Senderos
7. Rosicky
8. Nasri
9. Eduardo
10. Gallas
11. Van Persie.

Not too shabby in my opinion and not too far off our strongest team.

Would look like this

Almunia
Sagna Gallas Vermaelen Senderos
Diaby
Rosicky Fabregas Nasri
Van Persie
Eduardo

This is Uniteds:

Van Der Saar
Neville
Evra
Hargreaves
Ferdinand
Brown
Owen
Anderson
Berbatov
Rooney
Giggs

or if you like...
VDS
Neville-Rio-Brown-Evra
Hargreaves-Anderson-Giggs
Owen-Berbatov-Rooney

If Ronaldo was still there at number 7 instead of Owen it would have been a pretty well organised team.

Sunderland:

1. Craig Gordon

2. Phil Bardsley

3. George McCartney

4. Teemu Tainio

5. Anton Ferdinand

6. Nyron Nosworthy

7. Carlos Edwards

8. Steed Malbranque

9. Frazier Campbell

10. Kieran Richardson

11. Darren Bent

Would it be any good? The simple answer is no.

A few of the players aren't even at Sunderland anymore or are out on loan. Edwards is now at Ipswich, Tainio is made of glass and is on loan at Birmingham and Nosworthy will more than likely move on loan today.

It'd line-up like this:

Gordon

Bardsley Nosworthy Ferdinand McCartney

Edwards Tainio Malbranque Richardson

Campbell Bent

That team would certainly do very, very well to avoid relegation from the Premier League.

We could field that team tomorrow against Hull and still win 3-0.:pac:

< insert obligatory team of Gary Breen's here >

matrim

1 Brad Friedel Goalkeeper
2 Luke Young Defender
3 Wilfred Bouma Defender
4 Steve Sidwell Midfielder
5 Richard Dunne Defender
6 Stewart Downing Midfielder
7 Ashley Young Midfielder
8 James Milner Midfielder
9 Marlon Harewood Striker
10 John Carew Striker
11 Gabriel Agbonlahor Striker

This is Aston Villa's.

Friedal
Young Dunne Bouma
Young Milner Sidwell Downing
Agbonlahor Carew Harewood

It's not too bad and not far off the normal starting team but does have only 1 central defender.

Ush1

1. Lloris
2. Clerc
3. Cris
4. Boumsong
5. Bodmer
6. Kallstrom
7. Bastos
8. Pjanic
9. Lisandro
10. Ederson

6 MF Michael Johnson
7 MF Stephen Ireland
8 MF Shaun Wright-Phillips
9 FW Valeri Bojinov
10 FW Robinho
11 ??

Thats a decent starting 10,but then most of the players missing would be an even better starting 10

.....................Given.....................

Everton

1. Carlo Nash

2. Tony Hibbert
3. Leighton Baines
4. Joseph Yobo
5. Johnny Heitinga
6. Phil Jagielka

7. Diniyar Bilyaletdinov
9. Landon Donavan
10. Mikel Arteta

8. Louis Saha
11. Jo (now gone to Galatasary).

So I reckon we could go for a 5-3-2 formation. Definitely not our best side. Only really 6 of those would be starters..

Guy:Incognito

1. Cavalieri
2. Johnson

4. Aquilani
5. Agger


8. Gerrard
9. Torres

11. Riera

Bit Weak in fairness.:) 2-3-1 formation is'nt the best for coverign the pitch, Torres would have to do an awfull lot of tracking back. Wonder can Cavalieri work as a fly?

But what if it was setup using the 'traditional' intepretation of the numbers?

.............. Almunia
Diaby Vermaelen Senderos Sagna
............. Fabregas
.. Rosicky .. Nasri .. van Persie

ugggh!

yeah thats the way I'd interpret the numbers,still do

Pepe LeFrits

Well, I've googled it and found sources for both! They were the left/right halves in the old WM so you could it's hard to argue a difference over which should be dropped back. 6 seems like more of a CB number to me though, having grown up seeing the likes of Baresi, Adams, Stam, Pallister etc wearing 6 and Vieira, Makelele etc number 4. Although I'm sure you can point to examples showing it the other way around too.

Not a bad side, good balance of defense and attack, would beat most other Serie A sides even with a man down.
