Not sure if this has been done so sink if so, I've seen best Charlton 11 etc but what would be your personal Favorite Charlton 11 meaning player's of weaker era's like our current team might get a look in where's realistically a lot would struggle considering the year's we've spent in the top tier.
GK: Dean Kiely - Without a doubt best keeper we've Ive seen, saved us so many point's.
RB: Chris Solly - also good for a youth player to make the grade and hardly ever has a bad game.
LB: Chris Powell - The prodical son
CB: Herman Hriedasson - Absolute beast, could start a arguement in an empty room. So much passion.
CB:Richard Rufus - Wembley, Pace & Power. was so gutted hearing news of his retirement.
RM: Claus Jensen - I cheated a little bit here because I couldn't leave a man who oozed such class out but he did play a few games wide for us.
LM: Johnnie jackson - The best captain since Kins!!!! Really fit's in the mould of a true Charlton player
CM: Scott Parker - The best player to have played for us in my time watching which made me hate him so much before. Feel if he stayed till end of season he would have been Roy Keane's replacement
CM: Mark Kinsella - Great captain, stayed with us when we went down and proudly let us back up.
CF: Yann Kermogant - An absolute beast and got the quality to go with it, made an instant impression on me coming on and scoring against Sheff U
CF: Paulo Di Canio - I can't believe he was 35 when we had him, had that natural ability that perhaps I haven't seen. instantly brought the crowd to there feet.
Subs
Rob Elliot- One of our own and always will be
Andy Reid - Probably the toughest decision not finding a place for him, that fat lad could play and still can.
Rhoys Wiggins - After Yann my current favorite player, feel he will be in the prem before two seasons
Jose Semedo - Okay came at a bad period of our history but his commitment well and truly won me over
Clive Mendonca - Wembley!!!!! Shame like Rufus that injuries got the better of him.

That's Darren Bent by the way ;-) Harsh not to have a spot for Mendonca in the first team but don't think him and Bent would have worked. No Costa as he wasn't with us long. Honorable mentions to Andy Hunt, Mark Fish and HH.

Costa ----World class
Rufus--- class and see Humphreys re England
Powell---played for England
Jensen---such a smooth/classy player
Kinsella --- all time fav player ---what would someone like him cost us now?
Parker---Played for England and his battles against Veira of Arsenal a true world class player showed how good Parker was.
Simonsen---World class
Mendonca---huge shame re injuries but a great scoring rate at the highest level even with his injuries
Bent---gutted he never went to the World cup instead of some 5 year old goonershit kid, a great finisher.
