If you could assemble a squad of players outside of the big 6, who would you have? What would be your starting line-up, what do you think the squad could achieve and which players could make it in a top-6 side?

Mine. I've underlined the players that I believe could currently, or potentially, hold down a place in a top-6 side:

-----------------Howard

Carr------Cahill-----Hangeland-----Enrique

Young------Fellaini----Cahill--------Downing

--------------Doyle------Bent

Subs: Robinson, Distin, N'Zogbia, Arteta, Adam, Jarvis, Gyan

Other squad members: Friedel, Collins, Baines, Barton, Nolan, Jonas, Jones, Agbonlahor.

Stephen Carr only makes it coz I couldn't think of a decent RB below Liverpool!

In fairness to carr hes one of the best right backs in the country in the past two seasons....

I like Scott Dann at Birmingham and Phil Jagielka, and I think Matt Jarvis would be a decent buy for us if SWP goes.

I reckon Man U and Chelsea are the only two teams in the division that Baines wouldn't be first choice left back for.

Glaring error on my part to overlook Jagielka.

No Seamus Coleman? He's a great young player.

Some other good shouts would be Louis Saha, Damien Duff, Clint Dempsey and Roger Johnson.

I've thought this whenever I've seen him, looks good nice tricky winger.

Parker has been impressive all season in a poor side, Arteta always impresses me and would be a huge improvement on Barry. I'm not a fan of Bent for some reason, seems wasteful to me.

I quite like Roger Johnson. Saha and Duff aren't upwardly mobile for the team I'd want. I can't stand Clint 'Elbows' Dempsey, though I admit he is at worst a decent top-half player.

I'd like Arteta at City.

Jaaskelianen. (I not sure how its spelt)
Huth,Dunne,Distan,Nedum
Young,Barton,Cahill,Petrov.
Bent,Nolan.

Bench
Jones, Baines,Hangeland,Pederson,Downing,Green,Agbenlahor.

Onuoha's our player so doesn't count. I excluded Sturridge for the same reason.

Stilian Petrov is shiiiiiiiite these days. Or did you mean Martin? He's past it too.

Martin is the one I mean't.
I really hope we get Danny back in a few years like we did with sweep.
Do you think Nedum is coming back.I hope he is but have a feeling he won't be.So I suppose I'm stuck with who to pick.

I hope we never get Sturridge back . . . . ever. The greedy, ungrateful twat

Good shout!

Was at the Newcastle game at the weekend and he was the best player on the park by a mile! He was outstanding

Rodwell for the future?

Have to echo the Tiotte shouts, he has been awesome thus season.
Also N'Zogbia would be a nice option at City very Lacey and direct

tell you who ilike, that odemwingie from west brom
