Right, a United team based off the players in my lifetime:

GK - ...haven't a clue. Ben Amos if we're excluding loan?
DR - Gary Neville
DL- John O'Shea
DC - Jonny Evans
DC - Wes Brown
MR - Darren Fletcher
ML - Ryan Giggs
MC - Paul Scholes
MC - Roy Keane
SC - Wayne Rooney
SC - Lou Macari?

Almost stuck Welbeck on the wing until I remember Fletcher started out there! I didn't realise Irwin wouldn't be eligible!

Gary bailey for gk

I was thinking Stepney as keeper but alas no, he didn't spend 75% of his career at the club

Keane - 17 year career, 12 at United, not quite 3/4

I'm going on percentage of appearances. 480 out of 625 career appearances

Charlton in midfield surely?

Edwards in defence was another I was going to go with

I'm going by appearances not seasons if that helps.

Not in my lifetime

I only added Macari because I didn't want Welbeck and couldn't find anyone else!

If I added players before my life I know I'd end up missing people so I'll let someone older do that if they want

GK: Bob Wilson
RB: Pat Rice
CB: Tony Adams
CB: Sol Campbell
LB: Kenny Sansom
RW: Paul Merson
MC: David Rocastle
MC: Ray Parlour
LW: John Radford
FC: Ian Wright
FC: Charlie George

I found it thought to choose between Peter Storey or Ray Parlour but seeing as I never say Storey play (my old man used to rave about him) I went with the Romford Pele. I went Kenny Sansom at left back as the only other alternative was Ca$hley Cole and I couldn't be having him dirtying my team

^^ That would be a great team

The post match drinking session would be awesome

I wanted Sol Campbell but for some reason dismissed him for not being local :confused:

Better edit my team and put him in
