Think the Premier League should have this as a rule tbh

Here it is, in 4222 formation (FIFA style, or a 442 with advanced wingers):

------------------------------- Schmeichel (10) -----------------------------------

Cafu (4) --- Ferdinand (9) ---- Beckenbauer (11) --- Błaszczykowski (14)

----------------------- Makelele (8) -------- Zidane (6) -------------------------

------- Messi (5) ---------------------------------------- Ronaldo (7) ------------

--------------------- Van Nistelrooy (13) ---- Law (3) -------------------------

Doesn't matter if they all come from one team or not, point was to get you thinking!

My United one would be fackin great, apart from Borthwick Jackson looking a little out of place at left back

Love seeing the token long-name players included in these line-ups

Otherwise known as standard length names if you're Dutch

Well you have to. The reasonable minimum you could have is
3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13.

Except Chelsea and whoever else had Ba

Yeah it's just funny seeing the contrast being genuine world class players and spotty academy players with double-barreled surnames

I was actually disappointed Reine-Adelaide and Maitland-Niles have the same number of letters.

I had noticed that, but surely you must have Santos is a crap team. Straight swap for Luzhny.

That lot are bad enough in their natural positions, no need to play them out of position

Surely Pereira Neves is a shoe-in at CM? 4-4-2 is an outdated formation anyway, get rid of Danielvicious and go 3 in the middle. Get to hoard even more mediocre possession that way.
