Peter Barnes would be in it for me. I can’t tell you how excited I was aged 8 when he got picked for England.
Peter Doherty?Nobody on here's ever seen him play — but by reputation, Peter
Doherty.
Must be one or two players from the mid 50s team who'd compete, too;
Despite all our foreign stars over the years, City have had some decent English players. Whist musing idly yesterday, I came up with a notional City team comprising English players. (I have probably forgotten someone important):
Corrigan
Walker Stones Watson Pardoe
Grealish Barry Foden
Bell
Lee Sterling
Subs: Coton, Doyle, Booth, SWP, Buzzer
Of that XI, ten were internationals - and Pardoe could well have been if Best hasn't committed that assault.
Spot on. The greatest all English team. Proud to be old enough to have seen it.This is the only correct answer.
Subs: Corrigan, Walker, Stones, Lake, Foden, Wright-Phillips, Francis, Tueart, Barnes----------------Hart
Book---Doyle-------Watson---Pardoe
---------------Oakes
Buzzer--------Bell---------Sterling
-----------Lee------Young
It does highlight how foreign players have influenced our great club over the Years.Peter Doherty?
Why don't we just have Kompany, Kinky and Trautmann too?
