Best 11, in your life time, not two players from same club or country

I love doing these kind of things, but this has been bloody hard.
Feel sure its wrong somewhere but mine is:

Southall

Amoros
Baresi
McGrath
Camacho

Matthaus
Nedved
Zico

Blokhin
Dalglish
Messi
 
His name is in the title but not in any of the submissions and someone from N Ireland would free up a place for someone else.

It would also take out all your Manchester united options, or Ronaldo as it is also known 😉, but is a very good call for people old enough to have been around during his playing days

There are so many traps in this question aren't there? I don't have the ability to come up with a team which adheres to the rules but I thought someone may have chosen best over Ronaldo. I like him but many don't.
 
OK if i tried this I would get repetitive strain though cross referencing but I let my son have a go.

GK: Oblak

LB: Alex Sandro
CB: Baresi
CB: Sergio Ramos
RB: Lahm


CDM: Kante
CM: Gerrard
CAM: JJ Okocha

LW: Giggs
ST: Viduka
RW: Messi
 
It's a good challenge. As others have said, bloody hard though.

Second attempt.

Chilavert

Maldini
Godin
Kompany
Lahm

Keane
Nedved
Gazza (edit)


Messi
MBappe
Suker

Maradonna played for Barca. So rules out any other Barcelona player even if you leave out his obvious compatriot.

Helps if you leave out C. Ronaldo as picking him rules out any other Man Utd, Madrid or Juve players. Most people I imagine would probably pick one from each.
 
This had been doing the rounds on social media, not sure if anybody has posted already, mine is

Cech
Lahm Kompany Maldini Robertson
Juninho Valderrama LeTissier
Messi Mbappe C.Ronaldo

(Attempt 2)

Picked my team then realised, no two players from the same club! Oh well, this is what it was:

Schmeichel.P
Lahm Stam Nadal Madlini
Ronaldo.C Gascoigne Maradonna Giggs
Ronaldo Henry
 
Tomaszewski
Brehme
Cannavaro
Kompany
Cole
Xavi
Valderrama (was Enzo Francescoli but he and Kempes both played for River Plate)
Mustafa Hagi
Pele
Kempes
Panenka

Might be a mistake in there as this is really hard.

Nedved and Gazza were both at lazio!

I think I prefer finding errors in people's team more than doing it myself.
 
When you say lifetime , do you mean alive or playing ? This would govern Best/Pele out for a lot of people on here who weren’t around in their time.

So they were. I wasn't even that keen on having Gazza.

Although most others have errors too, any chance of picking on someone else next? 😂☹️
