Haha agreed, but you don't pick the team to actually play, just the best players of the season in their respective positions then shoehorn them into a formation.
Players choose the best 'keeper, four defenders, four midfielders and two strikers.

Players choose the best 'keeper, four defenders, four midfielders and two strikers.
But why two strikers when no decent PL team has has regularly utilised two strikers for roughly a decade?

I was trying to pick my best XI on the BBC / Sky website the other day and gave up as soon as I realised I could only select Rose and Walker as CBs or FBs, not wing-backs. When I selected a 3-5-1-1 formation (was the closest formation to what we play), the wide players looked like wing-backs, not RM/LM or wingers, but I could only select midfielders.

I wish I could say that was my most frustrating moment of the week...
