AuthorBoth Outcasts There were plenty of players throughout the year that stood out this EPL league season. The awards are rightly dominated by players who have performed consistently well at the top of the table but what about some of those players lower down the league? Players, who despite the best efforts of a poor supporting cast of team mates managed to consistently perform week in and week out for some of the less glamourous sides in the division?
The only caveat for compiling this list was that we had to pick the players from teams positioned 7th to 20th in the league who we thought had had a good season. It just so happens that we picked very similar squads (7 players to be exact made it in to both our sides). Our teams are below: AuthorBoth Outcasts After indicating what our all-time top 11 team would be, check it out if you haven’t already, we thought we would try our hand at coming up with another fantasy style team. With it being the year the British and Irish Lions rugby side come to the southern hemisphere we thought why not a football version?
Again the only caveat was that we had to have watched these players play during our lifetime and this time we have requested fellow bloggers @SportingMad to submit teams. I shall let my fellow Outcast kick the teams off though, then the Sporting Mad team will provide their teams before I round off this top 11. So down to Sports Billy to start. AuthorBoth Outcasts When the Outcasts were kids we would sit in the classroom before the lesson began and talk about the best team of players that our young minds could think of. We produced team sheets and formations to try to fit in the best players and argued aplenty with our friends when they hadn't included someone who we thought was an obvious choice.
Flash forward and now in our early 30s we wondered what the best team that we could come up with now was after years of watching football. The only caveat was that we had to have watched these players play during our lifetime, so no Pele or Maradona here as they weren’t playing by the time we were growing up. Cue the arguing once again. |
