Seen plenty of Jamie Carragher’s best 11 challenge from English football, how about doing a Scottish one?

Create your best SPFL team with 2 restrictions:

1-Has to have played in in the SPFL in the 2000’s (must have played a competitive game for the team to count)

2-The players can’t have played for the same Scottish team

*they can play for the same country or have played for the same English team.

Hopefully no mistakes in mine and I tried not to copy any of my mates players so didn’t go for obvious choices like Andy Robertson. Here’s my crack at it:

 

Gk-Darren Randolph-Motherwell

 

Def-Christophe Berra-Hearts

Def-Stuart Findlay-Kilmarnock

Def-Liam Lindsey-Partick Thistle

 

Mid-John McGinn-Hibernian

Mid-Mikel Arteta-Rangers

Mid-Robert Snodgrass-Livingston

Mid-Shunsuke Nakamura-Celtic

Mid-James McArthur-Hamilton

 

Fwd-Johnny Russell-Dundee United

Fwd-Adam Rooney-Aberdeen

I assume you mean they can have played for other Scottish clubs as several of them have done so in your list.

GK - Julian Speroni - Dundee


DEF - Ulises De La Cruz - Hibs

DEF - Marvin Andrews - Livingston

DEF -  Frederic Dindeleux - Kilmarnock

DEF - Goran Stanic - St Johnstone (He must have played at least a game in the top flight?)


MID - Mikel Arteta - Rangers

MID - Paul Hartley - Hearts

MID - Russel Latapy - Falkirk

MID - Phil O'Donnell - Motherwell
 

FWD - Hicham Zerouali - Aberdeen

FWD - Henrik Larsson - Celtic

Aye, I pulled a Tom English and didn't have a fucking clue about the rules despite them being fairly simple.

Yep, as long as they haven’t played for the same team as someone else in your team.

Quick fix. Should be it now I reckon.

Seems pretty easy to just name 11 players from any country other than Scotland and you'd have a ridiculously good team. Stanic played for multiple Scottish teams and I'd assume SPFL means the top 4 tiers? Excludes multiple players already listed if so (eg Snodgrass, Skacel, Findlay, Berra).

 

Cierzniak

Logan Skerla Sauzee Fyssas

Arteta Riera Lasley Nemsadze

Larsson Niculae

I gave up half way through.

Kasper Schmeichel, Aaron Hughes, Franck Sauzée, Paul Dummett, Andy Robertson, James McCarthy, Giovanni van Bronckhorst, Georgi Nemsadze, James Maddison, Robert Snodgrass, Henrik Larsson. 

God knows about the formation, mind. 

Edit: Replaced Stephen O'Donnell and Shaun Hutchinson with Aaron Hughes and Paul Dummett, on the condition that we are not just basing selections solely on form whilst playing in Scotland. If we are, I'd switch those back.

Did he play a competitive game for Celtic?

As that's clearly stated in the rules.

I'll be sort of breaking the rules as both Laudrup and Hector were at Chelsea, although Hector hasn't played a minute for them, so it'll stand... I think.

Michael Higdon
Henrik Larsson

Brian Laudrup
Georgi Nemsadze
Alexei Eremenko
Salius Mikolaunus

Andy Robertson
Michael Hector
Franck Sauzee
Ziggy Gordon

Alan Mannus
