Bolton
Wigan
Man City
Blackburn
Newcastle
Boro
Sheff Utd

SOUTH:

Chelsea
Arsenal
Portsmouth
Reading
Aston Villa
Spurs

So...it's up to you to pick the teams. Off you go.

If you go with that uniquely American fair-play rule that all teams must be represented, which makes it one player per team plus a second from another...

NORTH:

Man Utd-Ronaldo M
Liverpool-Gerrard M, Riise(LB)
Everton-Johnson S
Bolton-Speed M
Wigan-Scharner (in Midfield)
Man City-Dunne CB
Blackburn-(I'd use Nelsen, but he's hurt) Ooijer (he's been coming along-move him to RB)
Newcastle-Given G
Boro-Woodgate CB
Sheff Utd-Hulse S

SOUTH:

Chelsea-Terry CB, Lampard M
Arsenal-Henry S
Portsmouth-James G
Reading-Doyle S
Aston Villa-Mellberg LB
Spurs-King CB

I'd trade the bottom four to Che£$ki for Drogba, Carvalho, Geremi and Essien, but since that violates the spirit of my picks...

Fulham-Boa Morte M
West Ham-Etherington M
Charlton- Luke Young RB
Watford- Ashley Young M

Howzzat?

Thx,

Jay!

Jay - EVERYONE has to have a reprentative? Do they do that in the NFL/NBA/MLB? If they do, I'm sure they can hide them in their 200-man roster.

As I'm in charge, I'm eliminating that rule.

Here's my pick of the Northern Men:

GK: Given

LB: Heinze
CB: Woodgate
CB: Ferdinand (Rio)
RB: Nevlille

LM: Giggs
CM: Gerrarrd
CM: Cahill (Tim)
RM: Ronaldo

CF: Rooney
CF: Kuyt

MLB does, the NFL, NBA, and MLS don't, not sure about NHL (who will go back to east/west I think for 2007).
