After 3 years they'd be 10th.
As they'd get relegated then sneak back up and then cement mid table. 
A lot of your players are a good championship standard. Some are lower than that (musonda)

Maybe I tend to overrate him because every time I watch him I see a future top player. Though something seems to be holding him back, maybe his weight.

When did you last see him play well? Nottingham forest October 2017...

Because I don't think he's played well since then. He was dreadful against Everton and then he flopped at Celtic because of his awful attitude.

What's holding him back I suspect is that he's a c**t

That team would finish bottom by quite some distance.

I don't think so, most of this players will work straight into the starting line up of some teams in the EPL that are not even in the relegation zone.

Wrong.

Didn't think this was worth its own thread, but I saw this little 'form an XI' game on Twitter:

Make a combined XI for the team you support comprising the squads from the 1998/99, 2008/09 and 2018/19 seasons. How many get in from the current squad?

 

My answer is two (based entirely on form/injury status, otherwise Drogba for one would be a cert):

Cech (2008-09)

Ferrer (1998-99)

Desailly (1998-99)

Terry (2008-09)

A Cole (2008-09)

Kanté (2018-19)

Poyet (1998-99)

Lampard (2008-09)

Petrescu (1998-99)

Hazard (2018-19)

Zola (1998-99)

Any squad team containing Chappie Ferrer gets my approval. 

 

                                               Cech (2008-09)

Ferrer (1998-99) - Desailly (1998-99) - Terry (2008-09) - A Cole (2008-09)

                                              Wise (1998-99)

                          Di Matteo (1998-99) - Lampard (2008-09)

                       Zola (1998-99) - Drogba (2008-09) - Hazard (2018-19)

 

I fully acknowledge I'm being extremely nostalgic with my XI but frankly I don't care. 

 

                                               Cech (2008-09)

Ferrer ?(1998-99) - Desailly (1998-99) - Terry (2008-09) - A Cole (2008-09)

                                              Ampadu (2018-19)

                          RLC (2018-19) - Lampard (2008-09)

                       Zola (1998-99) - Drogba (2008-09) - CHO (2018-19)

 

Here's hoping !!
