David Beckham, Eric Cantona, Thierry Henry And Steven Gerrard Named In Fans' All-Time Premier League XI
Posted Tuesday, September 21, 2010 by YAHOO Sport
A team largely made up on Manchester United players dominates a Barclays poll, created to determine the greatest 11 players to take to the pitch in the Premier League era.
And the voice of over 260,000 users have spoken out in the form of the line-up below, which lists the best 11 to have graced the top-flight.
United, who have largely dominated the Premier League era since 1992, have a strong representation in the team, as seven of the 11 players named were from the Old Trafford outfit.
The Red Devils' legendary shot-stopper Peter Schmeichel secured nearly 50 per cent of the votes to see of his competitors, while Patrice Evra narrowly edged out Chelsea's Ashley Cole for the left-back spot. John Terry, Tony Adams and Gary Neville make up the rest of the defence.
Ryan Giggs secured 73 per cent of the vote to breeze through into the left flank, while Steven Gerrard and Paul Scholes formed the engine room - as the United midfielder saw off Frank Lampard by one per cent. David Beckham beat the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and former Arsenal hero Freddie Ljungberg to man the right flank.
Up front, ex-Gunner Thierry Henry and Old Trafford legend Eric Cantona made the front line.
When it came to managers, Sir Alex Ferguson won with an overwhelming 64 per cent of votes.
