clyde_darren Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 Seen plenty of Jamie Carragher’s best 11 challenge from English football, how about doing a Scottish one? Create your best SPFL team with 2 restrictions:1-Has to have played in in the SPFL in the 2000’s (must have played a competitive game for the team to count)2-The players can’t have played for the same Scottish team *they can play for the same country or have played for the same English team. Hopefully no mistakes in mine and I tried not to copy any of my mates players so didn’t go for obvious choices like Andy Robertson. Here’s my crack at it: Gk-Darren Randolph-Motherwell Def-Christophe Berra-HeartsDef-Stuart Findlay-KilmarnockDef-Liam Lindsey-Partick Thistle Mid-John McGinn-HibernianMid-Mikel Arteta-Rangers Mid-Robert Snodgrass-Livingston Mid-Shunsuke Nakamura-Celtic Mid-James McArthur-Hamilton Fwd-Johnny Russell-Dundee UnitedFwd-Adam Rooney-Aberdeen 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 I assume you mean they can have played for other Scottish clubs as several of them have done so in your list. GK - Julian Speroni - Dundee DEF - Ulises De La Cruz - Hibs DEF - Marvin Andrews - Livingston DEF - Frederic Dindeleux - Kilmarnock DEF - Goran Stanic - St Johnstone (He must have played at least a game in the top flight?) MID - Mikel Arteta - Rangers MID - Paul Hartley - Hearts MID - Russel Latapy - Falkirk MID - Phil O'Donnell - Motherwell FWD - Hicham Zerouali - Aberdeen FWD - Henrik Larsson - Celtic -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, I pulled a Tom English and didn't have a fucking clue about the rules despite them being fairly simple. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshmallo Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 Seems pretty easy to just name 11 players from any country other than Scotland and you'd have a ridiculously good team. Stanic played for multiple Scottish teams and I'd assume SPFL means the top 4 tiers? Excludes multiple players already listed if so (eg Snodgrass, Skacel, Findlay, Berra).

DrewDon Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 (edited) Kasper Schmeichel, Aaron Hughes, Franck Sauzée, Paul Dummett, Andy Robertson, James McCarthy, Giovanni van Bronckhorst, Georgi Nemsadze, James Maddison, Robert Snodgrass, Henrik Larsson. God knows about the formation, mind. Edit: Replaced Stephen O'Donnell and Shaun Hutchinson with Aaron Hughes and Paul Dummett, on the condition that we are not just basing selections solely on form whilst playing in Scotland. If we are, I'd switch those back. Edited May 3, 2020 by DrewDon 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thisGRAEME Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 I'll be sort of breaking the rules as both Laudrup and Hector were at Chelsea, although Hector hasn't played a minute for them, so it'll stand... I think.
