I'll take the second best Ivorian to play in the premier league Yaya Toure.

And my second pick will be the Argentinian Carlos Tevez.

Btw very disappointed to see Slippy G picked haha.

Thanks. Guess that makes my midfield a bit of a poor man's version of Makelele - Essien - Lampard, but I'm pretty happy with it.

Haha yeah I would be, let's see how the rest of the teams pan out. Good picks are starting to run out. My wingers could end up as Shaun Wright Phillips and Sinclair at this rate.

Yep, more likely than not we'll all end up with some not-top-of-the-rung players in at least one or two positions, but it's just a matter of fitting them into your team philosophy so they're not a liability.

I'm going to reunite the greatest centre back pairing the Premier League has ever seen, my next pick is non other than Lord Percy himself, Ricardo Carvalho.

Some interesting looking teams shaping up now. 

 

Looking forward to seeing how some of you are going to set yourselves up. 

David Silva

It appears that your midfield certainly won't be lacking in character or integrity.

I'll take Patrice Evra, before Teritus can get his hands on him.

About time Evra went too!

 

Right, I've spent a lot of time deliberating over this but my next selection goes to Le Tissier, pairing him in behind van Nistelrooy will hopefully provide the classic (and very formidable) creator/finisher combination.
