Just for a bit of Fun....

Can we name a starting 11 of professional players born in the City of Coventry?

Also could we name a starting 11 from the past?

But the players should only be players born inside the existing City of Coventry boundary.

Edit: knew there was a reason I didn't include them. Both born in Nuneaton.

Graham Alexander is from Coventry isn't he? Worth a place somewhere I think

He's retired.

What would the estimate value of that team be do we think? 20m? Most of it made up of Wilson

Think the young lad Crowley would give it a boost as well, Arsenal rate him massively.

Not too far off Iceland's team then...

Wouldn't have mccormick anywhere near the team.

Tbf I would have Burge over him.

Burge was born in Hereford.

Bobby Gould of course. And Peter Hormantschuk - I always liked him.

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

He's retired.

Where in the rules does it say he can't be retired?

 

[CJ_covblaze]

Surprised no one has mentioned Tranmere's all time stop goal scorer (also my Dad's ex teammate at Cov Boys) Ian Muir.

Also I'd have Marcus Hall in there too.

I thought it was current players. Though to be fair, apart from him, I'm not sure who else from the past there is. ^Obviously Hall over Clarke.

Roger Miller played international football for Cameroon into his 40's.
