Your team's Banter XI

You know what this means. Make an 11 of the players that bought the absolute bantz for your team. We can also do other teams too.


Subs: Favalli, Mesbah, Antonini, Birsa, Bakayoko, Borini, Menez, Ricardo Oliveira, Boriello

For the sake of diversity

Honorable mention to Borriello, Isla, Sissoko, Motta and others

Hard to choose a GK since Buffon has been here forever, Szczesny, Storari and Neto have been worthy subs and replacements. Before him it was Van der Saar. So had to choose Rubinho or someone like Manninger.

No HERNANES ???

Kicks the ball better than Marchisio

Favalli was always legit though

Gervinho is good, you should've kept him

^^maybe he is one of those players that would have never just made it in the Prem.

and sheeesh, Liverpool's banter era was something else hey ffs

Note on Gervinho - He was great for us, but I couldn't resist putting him in that attacking 4. His pace and one-trick ponyness was the stuff of banter alone.

Hernanes destroying Bayern >>>>>>>>>>>>> everything our banter era mids did

I would definitely put Konchesky at LB in Pool's banter 11.

Think someone like hospital legend Diaby is a bitter fit than Gervinho at CM Still remember his own goal winner for Man Utd.

Fontana
Montoya - Silvestre - Wome - Gresko
Guly - Okan - Kharja - Kerlon
Rocchi - Polo

Yes seriously the spoilt of the choice ... it's easy to forget someone.
Montoya.. forgotten about that scrub  
Silvestre was so bad under us, not written just because in Manchester was a valid soldier.
But in that year I remember a Gilberto who was one of worst ever, after Inter he's played for Hertha and other Brazilian clubs
I don't agree just about one thing, Fontana was good under us, solid 2nd GK
But here - we should have mentioned Ballotta. We conceded  6 goals to Parma under him too

Bench: Kraft, Braafdheid, Ismael, Tasci, Tymoshchuk, Sosa, Santa Cruz, Schlaudraff, Baumjohann

Diaby could have been the second coming of Vieira had he not been injury prone

Gervinho meanwhile was pure banter

Forgot about Howedes, should have including him over Lucio. Krasic was at least a shinning spot in the banter seasons between B and Conte, at least for a season I liked our "new nedved"

Barely remember Nonda tbh, but yeah it was a toss up between him, Gervinho and Okaka.

He was the poor man's Nedved really, from the skill set to hair cut, in many aspects he was similar yet far worse

I had struggles for CB and GK, as you said before, we've had mostly reliable players at those positions. So Howedes is a default choice not because he was bad, but because analyzing what he'd bring to us (as Bonucci replacement) turned out to be a pure loss of time Nothing against Rubinho either, he played just 2 games and didn't concede. Pinsoglio, beaten by his own fans while on loan, deserves that spot.

We both forgot the most banterous of all tbh. Juve bought Rincon out of nowhere, unreal banter.

That was actually Matias Silvestre, I am too young to remember Mikael for us.

We didn't really have banter goalkeepers. Of Ballotta I only remember him on the bench looking like he was 50 years old.
