gone slightly unconventional formation to cram 6 midfielders in there

Hart

Zabba Kompany Laporte

KDB Fernandinho Merlin

Raheem Yaya Leroy

Aguero


As an alternative, how the fuck did we ever win the league selection

Bravo

Danilo Nastasic Savic
Johnson Delph Garcia Milner Navas
Jovetic Balotelli

Felt wrong to include Balotelli Delph and Milner in that as they did a good job for us, but it goes to show how good we've been in recent years

This was difficult. It shows the quality of players and great teams we've been fortunate to have over the last few years.

I made the formation to include Tevez, at the expense of others, Raz in particular. Despite his personal issues he was immense that season. I truly believe had he not gotten in Joey Barton's head and caused him to be ejected from the match the title winning game against QPR would not have ended in our favour.

Toughest choice was in net, Hart was the best in the league and possibly the world at the time but Ederson has redefined the role, he’s as unique as Yaya. Could have gone three at the back to get Sterling in but we never played that so wanted to keep it viable. Some incredible players missing out but not that hard of a choice really.
