    I don't think we have a nailed on strongest XI; I think current form, system deployed, and strength and style of opponents, all play their part in selection.

    For me there are only 7 members of the squad who are chosen in all situations .......

    Forster, Ajer, Jullien, Brown, McGregor, Forrest and Edouard.

    Then depending on the factors listed above the likes of Frimpong, Christie, Griff, Ntcham, Taylor, Rogic etc etc get chosen.

    Good Post and I would add El Hamed to that list who can play both formations.

    I love how this thread was started to get a general consensus on our best starting XI and it's ended up with about 40 different starting line-ups and formations...Frimpong on LW, Rogic as CM.

    This is what the forum's all about :56:

    .........Griffith's edoaurd .........

    I agree that no real best 11, depends on opposition. But domestically and currently it has to involve two strikers

    I think we’ll regularly switch between 4231 and 352. But when everyone is fit I think the strongest is...

    Forster
    Frimpong Jullien Ajer Taylor
    Brown McGregor
    Forrest Christie Elyounoussi
    Edouard​
