Would be mine. Vardy/RVP/Salah/KdB/Vertonghen/Terry/Cech bench. LB's are much of a muchness, Baines was probably consistent for the longest however Cole/Robertson have had better individual seasons.
Cole really wasn't that special in this decade imo. Robertson has 75 PL games for Liverpool, so basically 2 seasons. Don't think that's enough tbh. Baines has been the most consistent, but has also had a couple of really good seasons, he's the obvious choice for me.
Baines over Robertson is genuinely laughable.
Robbo's best season - 0 goals 12 assists
Baines' best season - 5 goals 11 assists
He has had the better individual season for a far inferior side and obviously better longevity. The only thing that's laughable is you being deluded and arguing.
Robertson is a far better fullback than Baines ever was.
You've used stats for others, so he used stats against you... for a fullback that really only stakes a claim anywhere near the likes of Cole, Baines, Evra etc due to getting so many assists... & still Baines beats him... so instead of giving a response to stats with stats, you just go... "but he's a better fullback"... well no, because Robertson is more known for getting assists as a fullback than being a world class defender, & Baines even beat him in that even though Baines is at a worse side.
I mean if it's not obvious at this point & you're still replying like this at every post made in here then I'd say it's time to cut the debate...
The majority (other than one person) disagrees with you, it's not one set of fans, or one group.... but pretty much everyone, i'd personally say there might be genuine reason behind that rather than thinking everyone else's views are off, but it is what it is & you won't change your view/mind we all know that, so there isn't a reason to carry it on when nobody is convincing anyone, it's just getting "if you don't agree with me you're moronic" kinda responses.

And if that were the only criteria then Suarez would be in the team.
There is no criteria. All I’ve done all night is defend why I think that actual talent > the length of time and pointed out some inconsistencies in people’s reasonings.
I don’t know why people always end up moaning at me whenever I have a debate, calling me names and whatnot. Sorry for debating, guys.
You know I normally support you in such debates, but in this conversation(from what I’ve read) it’s just constantly been you making snide comments or saying everyone is wrong who doesn’t put your Liverpool picks in, apposed to actually debating very much, you need to accept longevity is a very big factor for most people when considering a team of the decade, wether you agree or not.

Again, didn’t watch enough of Zabaleta or Ivanović in their primes.
I love how all your posts are being completely ignored.
With all due respect to him it sounds as if he’s only actually watched football for the last 4-5 years, as he’s mentioned he didn’t see much of Zaba/Ivanovic, so it’s hard to take his team overly seriously, I appreciate his opinion. But it’d be pointless debating him on players he’s barely watched.

That isn’t really my issue. My issue is people are inconsistent with that. For example, the same people arguing that longevity is a very big factor have KDB in their teams. How does that work?

A fair lot of the posts are being ignored... my posts at the start were ignored, as are some others atm... That's his opinion, but I don't agree with it... but I also don't see him massively over the top playing it as if it's some crime or someones got it out for Liverpool players... you're also not debating with @Tornado31619 about any of his picks you think are wrong... & that'll be purely because he's thrown a couple of Liverpool players so you won't go at him, instead you'll go at those who are "moronic" & don't do what you think is right... (even though people are allowed difference of opinions, that's freedom of speech & thought), that's why a twitter poll, a forum poll, your post, my post etc are all irrelevant as this kind of thing is subjective to what you've seen, know & think of the players in the selection.

Are you having a laugh? Robertson isn’t known just for his assists, lmao. He’s a world class defender. You’d have a point if you were talking about TAA, but Robertson? You’re off your head, mate.

I explained KDB over Salah, simply put KDB is a slightly better footballer, I’m sure you’ll find plenty agree.
If VVD had done what he’s done as a any other position he’d probably get in the team for everyone but he just so happens to be up against two of the very best CBs in the history of football in Terry and Kompany.

Lol so the fact Robertson is brilliant at attacking automatically means his defensive ability can’t be used when assessing him? Robertson is probably the best fullback in the world right now and you don’t get that title by only being good going forward. He is basically TAA and AWB combined, so sorry for thinking that he is better than Baines.
If it’s not a crime to disagree with people and it’s all subjective, then why the hell are you getting on my back for disagreeing with people? I have made it clear that for me, talent > all when it comes to picking these individual players. That is my subjective view. Can you stop moaning at me, saying I should accept that people have their views, when you aren’t accepting that I have mine and keep arguing with me too? It takes two to tango, stop being so hypocritical.
For me, talent > all when it comes to the criteria. Yes, a decade is a long time, and there are many players who have played for the majority of that decade, but for me, when I’m being asked to pick a team of the decade, you’re asking me to pick the best possible team from the players that have played in that decade. I don’t personally see any sense in picking inferior players over players who have been superior, just because they have been around for longer or have a PL medal, and that is my opinion. Therefore, my team is, as I’ve already said:
It is my personal opinion that the above team, with them all at their peak during this decade, is a better team than the others that have been posted and would likely win a hypothetical match against them.
Hopefully people understand why I put players like Robertson and Suarez in over players like Baines and Aguero. Because I am trying to build the best possible team from players who have played in the PL within the last decade.
If you don’t agree with that, then fine. But it’s what makes the most sense to me.
Don’t want to get into the crossfire of this ❤️❤️❤️❤️ stupid argument where people are using different definitions of team of the decade but for me it’s all about what you did to define the era. Consistency is the biggest thing rather than trophies or having 1-2 great years. You need to be the best in your role the longest basically.
I’d go 442:
De Gea
Zabaleta—Kompany—Terry—Baines
Sterling—Kante—Dilva—Hazard
Kane—Aguero
Sterling was my hardest pick. Just didn’t know who to go for at RW so defaulted to him off the top of my head.

You'd also argue TAA was the best right back in the league even though he isn't great at defending... VVD being at the back lets Robertson go forward & when he does get found out, big Virge is there to save the day, hence why VVD is rated so highly, i'm not mocking Robertson, he's fantastic... but I also don't think he's worth putting in the team of the decade, it's as simple as that (and neither do most).

because you're throwing out how people are moronic or wrong if they disagree with you... it's one thing to say your view, but another to tell someone that their opinion is wrong, or this or that if it's not what yours is...
Robertson is the best LB in the world. Great at both ends.
What I meant was more.. Robertson is more known for being apart of the way his team play (maybe I should've said it better), as in fullbacks go way, way up... so a lot of the time are in the oppositions half... so his assists do matter & Baines being a player at a smaller club, won't be as high up.. but is raking in better numbers.
Either way, Robertson doesn't make that team for the majority so it's all good.
All of these Liverpool players look like safe bets to be in the team of the next decade but the idea of including them now just doesn’t sit well with me tbh

That's all everyone has been saying today... wasn't a big issue really...
I mean it's a fair shout, but for what he's done i'd argue Hazard in there over one of the wingers & Silva/Toure over another of the kdb/salah/mane lot, but as I said it's subjective... people may not see all games, or may've started watching football later in the decade etc.

because you're throwing out how people are moronic or wrong if they disagree with you... it's one thing to say your view, but another to tell someone that their opinion is wrong, or this or that if it's not what yours is...
End of discussion.
What I meant was more.. Robertson is more known for being apart of the way his team play (maybe I should've said it better), as in fullbacks go way, way up... so a lot of the time are in the oppositions half... so his assists do matter & Baines being a player at a smaller club, won't be as high up.. but is raking in better numbers.
Either way, Robertson doesn't make that team for the majority so it's all good.
Suarez - Aguero
Mane -- KDB-- Kante -- Salah
Robertson -- VVD -- Kompany -- TAA
DDG
That's all everyone has been saying today... wasn't a big issue really...
I mean it's a fair shout, but for what he's done i'd argue Hazard in there over one of the wingers & Silva/Toure over another of the kdb/salah/mane lot, but as I said it's subjective... people may not see all games, or may've started watching football later in the decade etc.
I need to change the players I chose, I didn't know we were talking about the Skysports vote!
decent team tbf & interesting formation to do for them.
Azpi - Kompany - VVD - Baines
Yaya - Kante - Silva
Hazard - Suarez - Mane
Also, there wasn't a year 0, so the decade goes from 1 - 10. Next year, kiddos
It doesn't,. the year starts at 2000-2009, hence why 2000 is a new century, which also means it's a new decade.
Therefore 2010-2019 and the end of this year is the cut off point...
Yeah, this discussion has gone south.
That’s not how it goes 😂
It starts at 0 and goes to 9, 2020 is a new decade. Look it up.
There was no year 0. It went from 1BC to 1AD. Every decade starts at 1, every century starts at 01.
