Henry Shearer Rooney would be devasting and the beauty of it is how Henry and Rooney can easily switch sides with each other. And who else at the centre but the greatest goalscorer the EPL has ever seen !
4-1-2-1-2 Formation: Schmeichel, Terry, Vidic, Irwin, Cole, Vieira, Scholes, Gerrard, Lampard, Henry, Shearer... Ronaldo as a sub and a game changing Trump Card...
It always surprises me when the Premiership's Best XI is voted for, and the endless debates ensue about which two of Gerrard, Lampard and Scholes should be in midfield. First of all, none of these played defensive midfield, without which, as England demonstrated over and over again, a team won't win anything. And second, for those of us who followed football in the 1990s, the best player of those years, the player who bestrode the Premiership like a colossus, whose own team mates were only slightly less scared of him than his opponents, who made the hard men in Serie A look like cry babies, who wasn't the most skillful or talented, who didn't score the most goals or make the most assists, but who everyone in Britain recognised as the outstanding player of his generation, who drove his club team onto success after success beyond their talents, and who would have made minced-meat of today's candidates for Best Ever Premiership Team - was Roy Keane. He regularly got the upper hand of Vieira, his only rival, who could never raise his team mates to the heights Keane did at United. Scholes, who was many times more talented, played in his shadow. Gerrard and Lampard were terrified of him. The great Zidane, who was the greatest player of that period, couldn't get the better of him. Arsenal hated his guts. Referees were bullied by him. And there's not a player in the Premiership today who could face him. I remember a newspaper article from the time comparing the treble-winning Manchester United team of 1999 to the great Liverpool teams of the 1980s, and while the marks of 8 and 9 were plentiful for both teams, one player from each side was marked 10. For Liverpool it was the great Kenny Dalglish; for Man United it was Roy Keane. Yes, he's a borderline psychopath who could start a fight in an empty lift and through years of success never showed the tiniest hint of satisfaction or happiness; and nobody wants to remember the extent to which he dominated the Premier League, which was second only to his manager, Alex Ferguson. But the best player in the history of the Premiership - quite easily - was Roy Keane.
I'll tell you this for free. If Messi done what Cristiano did in the premier they would have put Messi in there for sure. The disrespect on Cristiano is actually Insane.
Ronaldo wasnt better for the duration purely in the PL than Henry. Shearer wanted himself in and then it became Rooney vs Ronaldo. For prime definitely Ronaldo. If u take longevity into it then its Rooney.
Absolute rubbish! Ronaldo was world class for 1, maybe 2 seasons in the EPL. Quite simply, CR7 played his best football in La Liga. All other names on the team sheet spent the best part of their careers in the EPL.
Ronaldo has at no point ever been a better football player than Henry either. He turned into arguably the greatest goalscorer of all time in Spain, and his numbers are obscene - top CL goalscorer and International goalscorer of all time with consistent 40-50+ goal seasons, but for the football purests Henry was technically a better player. In terms of the Prem, it's completed one sided in Henry's favour.
@@seel33lees "Ronaldo was world class for 1, maybe 2 seasons in the EPL." Ballon d'or rankings 2007: Ronaldo was 3rd. 2008: Ronaldo was 1st. 2009: Ronaldo was 2nd. He was also top 3 in the world player of the year awards from 2007-2009 as well. But he was supposedly only world class for 1, maybe 2 seasons according to you? Ronaldo was world class for the final 3 seasons of his first run in the Premier League.
Has to be two sides. The greatest for consistency and success above their brilliance, and the absolute best for the football purests. Greatest 4-3-3 - Cech, Neville, Rio, JT, Cole, Lampard, Scholes, Keane, Giggs, Shearer, Henry Best 4-4-2 - Schmeichel, Walker, Rio, JT, Cole, Vieira, Kante, Ronaldo, Hazard, Henry, Bergkamp
WTF, goes to show these pundits know nothing. Rooney, shearer or Henry werent worthy of lacing Suarez's boots. That's just for one. Suarez was a beast!
When Kane takes the PL record, Shearer won't get in any of these teams ever again. Played in a shit era and for small clubs. There have been many better.
Denis Irwin is so much better than gary neville its actually embarassing that shearer has neville in this team. i'm a united fan and i will be honest and say gary neville is massively overrated. Ashley Cole, Patrice Evra and Denis are by far the best full backs in premier league history
Yeah in truth even though Phil gets even more stick than Gary as a player. Phil was better than Gary and more versatile hence why he could score more, play for longer and play well on both sides but also CM, bossed Vieira in a big match that helped win the title and he made other key contributions for other title wins as well. Better with weaker foot as well.
No doubt about it Ashley Cole was best in position during the mid 00’s in the world, not just in England, the whole wide world. There hasn’t been another left back even close to him in the PL. Denis Irwin next best for me, better full back the G Nev but you can’t just say he’s at RB to get him in the side, also Ivanovic should be mentioned at RB because he was a consistent 8-9/10 every week

Shearer havin' himself. Tbf he's a better outright CF than Kane.
Got more trophies than Kane aswell.
Top scorer
He isn’t though, Kane is a better goalscorer and a far better all round player
I'm not gonna fault Shearer cause he sacrificed going to Newcastle to play for his boyhood club than United.
@@kJ922-h3jyou didn't watch enough of shearer bro.. but kane better at bringing others in

Shearer gets in any team.

Scholes Gerrard and lampard together was a disaster for England.
@@dabiguy77 That's because they had poor manager who didn't used their potential in a right way.
@@dinosutra they had like 3 managers. Sven, mclaren, and capello.
@@dabiguy77 by the time capello came it was already over... 2004 was their pick year... Should have won the Euro...
@dinosutra no, the mistake they all made was not using Carrick enough. And one of lampard or Gerrard.
Can’t argue with that side. Although, Andy Cole fowler Giggs probably and a few more would be considered but benched, I’d have exact same as Alan.
I would had gone with Edwin van der sar or Tim Howard from Everton 17 years of his toffess career he was so fit and consistent

On the Iplayer
Has to be two sides. The greatest for consistency and success above their brilliance, and the absolute best for the football purests.
Greatest 4-3-3 - Cech, Neville, Rio, JT, Cole, Lampard, Scholes, Keane, Giggs, Shearer, Henry
Best 4-4-2 - Schmeichel, Walker, Rio, JT, Cole, Vieira, Kante, Ronaldo, Hazard, Henry, Bergkamp
The Premier League? All Time? No Keane? The Premier League? All time? No Cantona?
Some front 3 that would of been all the same
Gary neville over irwin is comical , irwin can play both sides
Kyle walker now deserves the right to be best ever right back in the Premier league
And was replaced by Irwin against players who would run Neville ragged.
Zabaleta or Walker
Richards dont no football at all, Rooney always tracked back
WTF, goes to show these pundits know nothing. Rooney, shearer or Henry werent worthy of lacing Suarez's boots. That's just for one. Suarez was a beast!
Lol
No Vidic , Keane , Ronaldo or Irwin on a all time premier league team
Micah Richards is such an amazing laugher. Shearer was an amazing striker but always comes across as a bit of a prick.
So in the entire premier league history, only 3 non English players are in the all time best XI?! Comical.
Well they are English and I'm if it was done in Spain, Italy and France they would choose there own as well
Nostalgia bias at its finest
Kane better tbh
From a 4-4-2 era - they make up a 4-3-3 team.
Muppets.
4-4-2 era? I much preferred 4-4-2 don't get me wrong, but this is all time premier league, not just the 90's.
@@joppy879 - yes, but read the squad. The bulk are 4-4-2 era.
@@AdmV0rl0n True, they obviously just wanted to put more forwards in
Cristiano Ronaldo???
Jesus, Micha Richards def sounds like a big girl 🤐🤣
Haha, he's brill
@@joppy879 ALWAYS has to be the loudest on the show - attention seeker 🤐
@@tores1892 I don't think so. I just think he's got a cracking sense of humour.
All Micah does is a big obnoxious laugh with no insight or clever humour. The northern Jimmy Bullard.
When Kane takes the PL record, Shearer won't get in any of these teams ever again. Played in a shit era and for small clubs. There have been many better.
Haha, good stuff xx
The next time the league’s top scorer is a player in a bottom-half team, I’ll start listening.
@@Edyoucation-fe1qq Might suggest his team suffered from playing just for him....

RB vs LB. Gary also played a lot longer on RB than most while winning a lot of titles
Gonna stick evra in there with no walker and think we wouldn’t notice 😂
No doubt about it Ashley Cole was best in position during the mid 00’s in the world, not just in England, the whole wide world. There hasn’t been another left back even close to him in the PL.
