Redknapp & Richards Pick Combined Liverpool v Man City Team | The Eleven

The Eleven brings a classic pub debate to life. Two rival football fans go head-to-head, to debate which players would make it into a combined team from their clubs. The Judge - a neutral fan - has the final say on each position on the pitch.
In this episode, ex-Liverpool star Jamie Redknapp clashes with Man City icon Micah Richards, with Arsenal fan and comedian Romesh Ranganathan overseeing proceedings, to decide on a combined XI of England’s top two clubs.

I always thought that Jamie was a horrendous pundit, because of his opinions. This video is a very strong argument to state my case. Micah, on the other hand, is getting better and better. Love the guy!

[@billyyeah7530]

Jamie knows his football and played at the highest possible level in midfield, have a bit of respect kid. Phillips certainly has a greater range of passes in his arsenal and is a more talented passer. Rodri is a better player, as of now. But Rodri has never been credited with his arsenal of passes but rather his immaculate positioning defensively, his ability to play in small spaces and his off the ball awareness(which are all world class). Guardiola knows a player when he sees one and he bought Phillips with plans to integrate him into a team with Haaland to get the range of passes from deep midfield in behind opposition defenders, it’s a slow gradual change for pep into a different style of play.

[@davidantoniostamm]

​@@billyyeah7530 I do respect Jamie as a player and I would never deny his experience, but in the last couple of years he had some very weird takes on many occasions (examples: his constant criticism on Mourinho, his opinion about Spurs' fullbacks Doherty and Reguilón, etc.). Of course, Phillips is a fantastic midfielder (and, in my opinion, far more complete than Rodri in terms of playing characteristics) and I do highly rate him. I hope he gets time at City, but as of now and as you said in your response to my comment, Rodri is the better passer (and probably one of the best passers in the world in his position). Since the video is about the best present 11 and not the 11 with the best potential, Jamie is not right on this one. P.S.: Setting a condescending tone by calling someone a "kid" doesn't make you win the argument ;) Have a great one.

[@shaswatshah4818]

Bro dont act like micah is any better. The only reason he's a pundit is because he's that comic relief character everyone likes in the movies. There's no doubt Rodri is the better player but if uve seen philips play for leeds last season ud know theres a reason they call him the english pirlo.

In a team like this I would pick Trent because they would spend most their time attacking but on a team when it is mostly 50/50 Walker is getting in 100% of the time and for people going to start crying he had Vinny in his back pocket after coming back from injury

Allison; Walker - VVD - Dias - Robertson; Rodri-Thiago-KDB; Foden - Haaland - Salah. The fullbacks are interchangeable, you can put any one of TAA, Walker, Robertson and Cancelo. Can argue for Dias over Foden, although Foden's been here longer and proven himself longer.
