[@MajorMango28]

I'm a Chelsea fan and I'd let Keane be picked just cause I wasn't alive for his era so I never got to see him but Kante is the reason I love football now. I'm not one who underrated players of old either but I refuse to believe Giggs gets in this team over prime Hazard especially in a 4-3-3. Giggs was never once the main man leading the team to a prem title and that to me matters. It's a bit like calling Carvajal better than some of the best right backs ever cause he's played at Madrid his hole career as amazing as he still is and has been for so long there's some right back that just dominate the conversation although I'd say he actually makes a better case then Giggs does which just proves my point futher.

[@temporaryuseraccount0012]

Rory is correct about Andy Cole missing a lot of sitters. Luckily, he also had a lot of chances each game and made up for it. In the same vein as how Rahim Sterling benefitted massively from playing in a Man City side who created mountains of goal-scoring opportunities every game. Completely different players, obviously. But they both massively benefitted from playing in some of the best attacking and goal-creating sides of each respective era.

[@davidsedgley1133]

The thing with Andy Cole is that if you have him in the team then you get twice as many chances, because he could stretch the play and hold up the ball like no one else until probably Drogba. He was a yard faster than anyone else in his legs and also a yard faster in his head, so he was the perfect all-action striker for that Man Utd team which had goal scoring threats from everywhere. We saw at Newcastle how many he could score if he was the main focus of the attack, but in Man Utd he became a team player, scoring less himself but enabling his team to score a lot more.

[@Neo-oq3rx]

I’m a die hard United fan and the only right answer is Cech Neville-rio-terry-cole Scholes-keano-lamps Ronaldo-Rooney-hazard I’ll explain my hazard pick over giggs. I have never ever been so terrified for a player to come to old trafford as prime hazard. I think that he got closest to Messi and Ronaldo’s level when they were in their prime. I think his peak was better than neymars. He would just slice through both the midfield and defensive line like butter no matter who his opponents were. I think at his peak he’s the second best dribbler of all time behind Messi. If we are talking prime hazard gets in all day

These guys are Great. However we had a few rather questionable takes 1) Ruud was at the period of Man united when they were going through a transition stage Scored more goals than Drogba...but Drogba was playing in a better Chelsea team..so he was able to deliver in the bigger games. To say Ruud couldn't score in big games is a myth.. 2) The reason why Andy cole was not playing for England is because of preference...also there was a degree of conscience racial biasness..it's similar to why Ian wright, Les Ferdinand all had limited games for England. I remember Alan Sheerer not scoring for 1 yr or more for England and they kept playing him. Andy cole was good enough for England As for Andy Cole being better than Ian wright...he wasn't but he was close. It also comes down to preferences because they were both so good 3) Paul ince.doesnt get enough credit...cos he was Man United best midfielder at the time. 4) People forget Desailly was one of the best DMS/8 in the world for AC Milan...won them the champions League.

Most importantly, It made Chelsea a side who could overload in attack, and be far less vulnerable to the counter, as they could just switch to three at the back when Cole got caught forward. Its still a great defence without him, but without him, and a more traditional RB, they dont break that record. Id argue it revolutionise defences in the PL.

With the CBs, if you had pick the partnership (Rio and Vidic / Terry and Carvalho eg) rather than just two individuals, which partnership would you choose ?

[@Asgoodasitgets146]

Schmeichel Irwin Ferdinand Terry Cole Scholes Keane Lampard Beckham Rooney Ronaldo

[@FNA27601]

Ronaldo played on the right wing for United

[@Asgoodasitgets146]

@ he plays either side and that’s where he’s going

[@cursedmika]

4-3-3. Cech - Neville - Terry - Rio - Cole - Kante - Keane - Lampard - Cristiano - Rooney - Hazard 4-4-2. Cech - Neville - Terry - Rio - Cole - Cristiano - Keane - Lampard - Giggs - Rooney - Drogba Honorable mention: Antony.

[@ahoy96]

I was with buvey till he said drogba over RVN

[@filltheglass2618]

Drogba Anyday

[@mrlace4776]

​@@filltheglass2618 As a striker Ruud is better, end of debate. Drogba has a lot of average seasons scoring around 13 goals in a league. Ruud doesn’t do this. If you win champions league or not is depend on your team and a lot of other factors.

[@EmmanuelOhiomoje-bj3gv]

When did this hazard inconsistency talk start ?

[@joshuasingleton9373]

Cech, neville, vidic, terry, cole, kante, scholes, lampard, ronaldo, giggs, rooney

[@nicomus1c]

Van Nistelrooy clears Drogba, the point about in the allianz arena 1-0 down who do you want is cool but that isn't everything, Drogba is the definition of a big game player and if you were to build a team for a final and then your done you could make an argument for it, but as an all round player across season, career whatever you want to judge it around Ruud clears

[@buddha1062]

Showing your clueless and listening to the stories. Look at Coles accuracy to Drogba...

[@ryan72394]

Denis Irwin is miles ahead of Neville and Cole Wild how overlooked he is

[@aj3013]

Hazard is the greatest LW in premier history

[@rhys3664]

@@aj3013 possibly

[@iangriffiths6047]

i feel like this should of been a 4-4-2 really. if it was i would have cech, neville, terry, vidic, cole, lampard, scholes, ronaldo, hazard, drogba, rooney

[@aaroncarter9753]

"You have to put Ronaldo in" Rory: No He then tries to justify that take. He's had some whoppers but that right there

[@sloppygoo]

If you’re including hazard you have to have Stam in the team too

[@tylerburns7855]

Drogba would be lucky to clean Ruud's boots

[@LeoDenton-d1p]

Behave

[@kh7688]

Ruud was utterly prolific for United. His only crime, falling out with SAF. Drogba had two seasons out nine that would be considered top quality in terms of goals. Ruud had four seasons out of five that were top quality in terms of goals. Not even close.

[@preethamhazard]

Lol, did Ruud ever win a Champions league? Playing for Utd, Real etc. but still couldn't. Drogba literally carried Chelsea to the UCL title and won 4 Premier league titles. He was bullying defenders single handedly, scoring from outside the box, freekicks and scored clutch goals. Ruud was a d box merchant scoring tap ins

[@QhaweKinglion]

Calm down 😂

[@Admiral_Kekdog]

@@preethamhazardIt doesn’t matter who he was bullying. As a striker Ruud is better, end of debate. Drogba has a lot of average seasons scoring around 13 goals in a league. Ruud doesn’t do this. If you win champions league or not is depend on your team and a lot of other factors.

[@jimmyohare8116]

How the fudge doesn't prime Kante get in. He's one of the best midfielders of all time.

[@dansedge4533]

On Rory talking about Giggs being left out etc, Giggs gets left out of conversations because of his personal life, which shouldn’t matter as he was a great footballer

[@justaguyyy]

Do you have the same argument for Terry?

[@Anyuser1245-l3y]

Lindelof??? Omgggg how did they not pick the greatest Swedish cb to ever play the game. Shambles really

[@JustinTildesley]

Cech, Terry, Rio, Neville & A.cole Lampard, Keane & makalele Crespo, giroud, Abraham

[@The_EPL_Xpress]

HOW IN THE WORLD is Antony NOT in the list!? 🤯👀

[@lazymeet]

there is no way giggs can get in ahead of Hazard, rest everything was perfect

[@therealhb1763]

Gigs has 13 prem titels

[@lazymeet]

@@therealhb1763 Pedro has Worldcup, Euros and multiple UCL, doesnt mean he is better than most others wth no titles . . . Giggs was good but at no point in his career he was one of top 5 wingers in the world. his longetivity is undenied but cant be included ahead of Hazard

[@andyashworth7750]

Terry, Cole, Lampard are the only Chelsea players that get in

[@Neznasgospodina444]

Ivanovic better than Neville, Kante better than Keane, Hazard better than Giggs.

[@ElDragow]

Buvy is spot on. People keep talking about Henry. But Ronaldo is the greatest player to have graced the premier league.

[@chrisb-m5203]

I am a man united fan but hazard has to be ahead of giggs imo. In terms of ability and for formation. Hazard Rooney and Ronaldo upfront Jesus that’s scary lol

[@UNITED8993]

“In terms of a big game player you don’t get anyone better than Didier drogba”?? Fkn Rooney mate

[@con2631]

You should actually do a best XI, and then a second best XI because its always the same people in every one of these.
