Can't see what Trautmann ever did to warrant being in that team.

For me, Steve Kinsey would be first name on the teamsheet
Bollocks; Andy "Princess Di" May would have to be first.

Martin " Buster" Phillips would eat them two alive

If this was truly a hardest eleven then there's no way you could have anyone born after WW2. Life was much harder 100 years ago as were the men. Central Heating and Social Security will have made people more than a little softer than they were previously.

I was just about to say the same. Reading through the posts the hardest is obviously Trautmann - Surviving the Brutal Eastern Front - Winning an Iron Cross - actually killing someone - playing with a broken neck. No false bravado, no drink or drug induced bravery. Impressive.
 
Hard nuts

Kompany
McMahon
Pointon
Negredo
NDJ
Milner
Yaya
Zab
Morrison
Reid

Pointon was the hardest.

wouldn't want either of Kolarov or Dzeko cross at me. a pair of big lads who were raised in the middle of a war.

Dzeko?

I've had harder dumps.
 
Before my time but my grandad said Roy Paul was a bit of a hard case.
Ian Scott,I seem to remember stories of him getting mixed up in extra curricular activities at the match,it was the eighties.
Dennis Tueart,is a good call;I'm sure that Hartlepool player still has flashbacks.
Joe Corrigan if he's anything like his brothers,would've been a handful.
I see your Steve Kinsey and Andy May and raise you Graham Baker.
