Where Would This Team Finish ?

5th or 6th.

4th or 5th.

I think it has pace (Bale), strength (Felliani), skill (Suarez), goals (Cisse) and the defence would be pretty good too.

I think they could get top 3 if all stayed fit

They would finish 7th on 58 points. 56 goals for, 45 goals against. The combination of players would create a largely ineffective team but the individual qualities possessed by some would compensate to an extent. Nah mean?

I actually tried to pick quite a few team players so that it wouldn't just be a group of talented players but a team with strengths in all departments.

Not sure bro. There's strength in all departments mans feel you on that no doubt. But strength in all departments is a very English mindset. There be a lot of teams abroad who be adopting the approach of 'weaknesses exist but playing to our strengths will far outweigh them'. The distribution of quality in a line-up is often quite uneven. But these teams succeed by emphasizing their strengths. Let's be real Man Utd have done this for time. Real talk.

Suarez operates better in a front 3. Moses would also play well in a three. Flanking a striker. But then where would that leave Bale? Mans be feeling Bale and Baines wouldn't work well. The star player in that team would therefore be compromised. A winning team would switch the compromise elsewhere. In fairness anyone could post any team and it would be hard to say nah mean?

No one can say with any degree of certainty where they'd finish, anyone can have a wild stab so here goes, top 8, but football is a squad game so that blows my prediction to kingdom come.

You missed out Ba. Or was it based on him being a one season wonder?

You would be better asking how would garth crooks team of the week would do in the league

Seeing how good old Garth picks 2 midfielders as forwards and almost always never picks any defensive midfielders then the starting 11 would almost certainly be in the bottom 6

I don't think there's a huge amount of goals in that team, there's a pretty good defence there, though. My guess would be comfortably in the top half, but not really threatening the Champions League spots.

That is assuming that the squad actually had more than 16 players.
