Best 11 Players You Have Watched Against Your Team

Basically a copy of the other thread but flip it and tell us the best 11 players, in a 4-4-2 or 4-3-3 you've seen in person against your team.

Chelsea

VDS
Lauren Puyol Vidic Ashley Cole
Iniesta Viera Xavi
Ronaldo Henry Messi

Code:

                          Cech
Sagna          Carvalho        Ferdinand      Cole

                Makelele        Pirlo

Ronaldo                  Kaka            Arshavin

                        Henry

I picked Arshavin almost soley on the four goals he scored past us in own game.

Where's your RB at?

I found it difficult, it was between Lauren and Belletti.

Yeah I edited it and put Sagna in.

I couldn't think of any stand out right backs that I have seen, so I just picked the first one that came into my head. As I figured that the one that first came into my head must have been the one to make the biggest impact.

Kaka was immediately the player I first thought of though, for 45 mintues he tore us apart. And Henry was quite easy as well as he had some really good games versus us.

Alan McGregor

Phillip Lahm
Lucio
Johan Mjallby
Giovanni Van Bronkhorst

Bastian Schweinsteiger
Barry Ferguson
Stillian Petrov
Lubomir Moravchik

Henrik Larsson
Miroslav Klose

schmeichal
g neville

iniesta
xavi

ronaldinho
klinsman

As a Mansfield Town fan, I could probably only pick players from recent-ish FA Cup games against Newcastle and Middlesbrough and, with all due respect, that wouldn't make the most enthralling list.

However, I do remember when we beat Shrewsbury 4-0 a few years back and they had a young man by the name of Joe Hart between the sticks.

Also, in the aforementioned FA Cup game against Newcastle, Shearer honoured us by sneaking a 1-0 win with the goal that equalled Jackie Milburn's scoring record.

Last but not least, I do remember seeing Cruyff playing at Field Mill. Unfortunately, it wasn't Johan but Jordi. We had a very surreal pre-season friendly against Alaves, who I believe were in the Spanish top flight at the time.
