    Understandably a bit dead around here so thought I'd throw up an idea that I saw elsewhere online that might generate a bit of discussion.

    Rules are,your best LFC 11 but you're only allowed to use each nationality once. You also have to have been old enough to watch any player you include in the 11. For instance I'm 38 and couldn't claim to have watched Graeme Souness play for Liverpool. Anyway,give it a bash.

    I'm 30, so I've got limited options.

    First stab at it is.

    Allison
    Finnan, Hyypia, Van Dijk, Robertson
    Mascherano, Gerrard, Alonso
    Salah, Divock, Mane

    Alisson
    Babbel Hyypia Van Djik Robertson
    Salah Alonso Mascherano Barnes
    Suarez Rush

    I'm 38 so didn't see Rush at his absolute peak and probably only had a year of top class Barnes. If it's based on how good they were when I seen them then Gerrard for Barnes and Mane in for Rush and switch to 433.

    No idea how I forgot about Suarez, I'd obviously sub him into my lineup for Origi.

    Alisson,Gerrard,Van Dijk and Suarez nailed on and worked from there.

    Alisson
    Finnan Van Dijk Hyypia Robertson
    Mane Mascherano Gerrard Salah
    Suarez Torres

    Would really like to have McManaman in but it's his own fault for being the same nationality as Gerrard. Toss up between Finnan and Babel.

    No mate, John Barnes is. Met him recently which probably swayed it. Bet Stevie wished he didn't fuck off to some 6 star hotel in Ibiza now, he could be in my team.

    Anyway you have Riise ahead of Robertson, that's more controversial.

    I thought you were holding a spectacular grudge.

    I thought he was paying homage to Origi for Barca and the final.

    Alisson
    Finnan Hyppia Van Dijk Robbo
    Gerrard Alonso Mascherano Mane
    Salah Suarez

    I'd probably choose Torres ahead of Alonso by best Spanish player to play for Liverpool, but a team of 4-2-4 mightn't work :p

    When I was running through my countries and I got to Belgium before Uruguay ,Origi was in by default then due to his derby goal, his Newcastle goal, his Barca goals and his final goal. (He might be worth his place in the team on that alone)
    No grudge at all, just forgot about him, unlike Origi who will never be forgotten.

    Nicol, VVD, Hyppia, Staunton
    Alonso, Barnes, Fab,
    Mane, Rush, Suarez,

    Full backs was the toughest.
    Leaving out Robbo and Rob Jones is criminal.

    Steve Nicol was a brilliant player but he hung around far longer than he should have and my main memories are of him being absolutely woeful. If it wasnt for a mixture of that and me being a bit young to remember his peak years well enough,he'd have easily have gotten into my team at right back.

    Shocked a few of these teams have no Gerrard

    Alison
    Finnan
    Vvd
    Hansen
    Riise
    Mascherano
    Gerrard
    Alonso
    Salah
    Suarez
    Rush



    Torres unlucky that we have other great striker options and Alonso. Barnes was my favourite player as a kid but Gerrard was even better

    Edited - can't believe I left Hansen out. Only saw him near the end of his career with us but what a player. Robbo out for Riise so

    Alisson

    Babbel
    VVD
    Hyppia
    Robertson

    Masherano
    Alonso

    Gerrard

    Salah
    Suarez
    Mane

    I am 39 but basing on from when I remember watching week in week out. Barnes and Rush were past their best then so leaving them out. 88-90 Barnes would be in my team ahead of Stevie though.

    Had Marcus Babbel not picked up that terrible disease he would have been LFC RB for years.

    With Keegan and Riise I have you narrowed down to somewhere between 16 and 60
