Hello and welcome to our third match-up in the Liquid Football World Football Draft. You know the drill by now, so let's crack on

Voting
- Players must be judged solely on their performance from 1992 onwards!
- <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<You are voting for which team you believe is best, NOT which team would win a one-off game. Teams are judged on an individual basis. VOTE FOR THE BEST TEAM>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
- Please bear in mind that football matches are not won on paper, so when voting, many other factors should be considered.



Erm307
 

...................Cech
Zanetti...Matthaus...Kohler...Abidal
Ginola...Fabregas...Keane...Nedved
...............Villa...Cole


?

DaGunners
 

...........................Rossi.........................
Dixon.......Carragher.......Keown.......Cole
Kanchelskis.....Vieira.....Gerrard.....Pires
...................Wright...........Owen..........

*note - Steven Gerrard is the Gerrard of 1998-2002.

Which team is best?

Discussion may begin.

Seriously, Frank Lampard is an absolute legend of the game. He needs to be recognised in some way eg. Frank Lampard OBE, Sir Frank Lampard or some kind of lifetime achievement award.

I'm going with DaG. Both got good midfields but lacking elsewhere.

Any team with Gerrard and Carra is a default win :)

DaGunners isn't with us to big his team up, so I will allow you all to cast your votes now, but please analyse carefully.

On paper:


GK = Erm.
Defence = Equal.
Midfield = Erm.
Strikers = DaGunners.


I'm not a big fan of DaGunners' side at all, as you're well aware. Gerrard of 98-2002 was nothing more than a very good player, and I'm unconvinced with his partnership with Vieira, whereas Keane and Fabregas are both competent in a 4-4-2, and would compliment each other nicely.

Erm's wingers probably edge it too, but it's close. Unsure about Ginola in that position but Nedved is thoroughly world class. Pires was too but not quite to Pavel's standard. Kanchelskis was a class act but United have had 3 better no7s since.

Erm's keeper is better, but the defences are fairly even. Abidal is the weak point in Erm's somewhat.

Up-front I think DaGunners edges it as Michael Owen > Cole, and Wright has longetivity.

However, I'm voting for Erm, as I'm not a fan of the English theme in DaGunners', at all. It may seem a flippant observation but there are far too many English and English based players in that side for me, and the team is not high in European pedigree.

The only glaring weakness in terms of personnel and formation in DaGunners' side is Gerrard at CM, of 98-02, but it's for the reasons above I vote against his team.

He had a good season but it was a poor second pick. Gerrard's best season is this one.

5 trophies?
