I wish more best 11's were like this. No childish bickering, respect and an unbiased approach 👏
I started typing the same comment. Cannot agree more. Top shelf delectable medley of punditry splendour.
Exactly! These two should be on SkySports. Instead of Caragher, Owen and Neville.
Ya it was very nice to see a normal conversation for a change 😂
@@soludave just because they are unbiased in this video, doesn't mean they always are. Rory and Robbie have the most outreagously biased takes all the time.
This was a great vid but imagine the next 11 without the players included much more fun everyone knows the top top players
'we got the bounched cech' nice one there robbie 🤣🤣
Was Cech really that bad at Arsenal? I thought as a shot stopper he was alright, but his feet let him down. Maybe I watched the wrong games of him.
@@YuToobism Nah he wasn't bad, just not nearly as good as the Chelsea version of Cech.
@@YuToobismI get what ur saying 100% but u have to think about like this all arsenal fans thought we were getting the same cech Chelsea had also he was the only signing that season
Bergkamp, the only player ever to win 1st, 2nd & 3rd place in a PL Goal of the Month award!
Damn
It's more impressive to win more than one time but okay
@@Dawgman111 It won goal of the month award 3 times, 2 of which were awarded Goal of the Season.
Not a real stat pal
Think I loved watching Bergkamp play more than any other Prem player and I'm not a Gooner. He was majestic.
I’m pretty sure Henry said that he was the best player he ever played with even including Messi! Not that he’s better than Messi lol
@@andresbautista933 Henry did indeed. So did Ian Wright.
He was a player capable of the doing the spectacular, doing that which has never been seen!
I'm a spurs fan and I loved him as a player
Berkamp was majestic but no ucl he was scared of flying
When you have Kante, Essien, Makelele and none of them makes the team, you know how good Vieira was. Those 3 were monsters in their position
Tony Adams all day Ror.. 4 league titles, 1 in the 80s, 2 in the 90s and 1 in the 00s !! The man is a bonafide Arsenal legend
He’s called Mr Arsenal for a reason😂 what a player given the fact that he almost destroyed his own career with alcoholism
It's an all time PL XI, Adams won 2 titles before the PL and in 2002, he was no longer a regular starter. Sol was a bigger PL legend.
These two were missing a glass of brandy each, and expensive cigar haha
Only befitting of the Don
Should have gone 4-2-3-1 got rid of Fabregas and put Hazard as one of the attacking three. Hazard has to be in an all time team.
Arsenal fan. And I don’t hate that.
agree
Fabregas was great but yeah
Putting Lampard back there is clamping his game. He is a box to box player, not holding.
@@telmolicious My other alternative was a 4-3-3 and Bergkamp gets replaced by Hazard.
"I would like to welcome Robbie on the channel" said Rory, obviously on Robbie's DR sport set I don't know why, but that cracks me up
Cus it’s his channel and Robbie don’t own dr
@@therealhb1763 WHAT????? 🤣🤣
@@therealhb1763 The DR in DR Sports literally stands for Don Robbie lol
@@therealhb1763 you’re an idiot 🤣
@@therealhb1763lol you’re kidding right?
“I’ve never done a chelsea Arsenal combined 11” he literally did 2 years ago with sharky and 1 year ago on AFTV
Leave the man alone. He can only remember things from 20+ years ago or the past week
🤣🤣🤣
And Adams/Terry pairing would be unbelievable
It would be so slow 😂
@@AhijahAdams wasn't slow
no pace. but reading and leading would be next level
"Robbie's KZhead channel will be in description below" - I didn't know Robbie's new name is Ade :D
Good one🤣🤣🤣
lol
Str8 DISSIN'
Zola didn't get a mention. Wow!
who tf is that? Never heard of him. Next.
@@cj7ificationcoz you're a child
@harry96516 the disrespect from these kids these days.. haha should watch a couple games might learn something 😂
@@mikeyparker727 yeah man. These kids only know the Abramovich era 💰⚽
I love the description of bergkamps position. Summed him up perfectly. “Dennis Bergkamp doing whatever he wants to do”
The only thing I will say about the older lads in this team is that it is literally impossible for people like me to truly understand how good Adams, Lauren, Seaman etc were because I was born in 2001. I firmly believe you can watch the highlights and think wow but to truly understand you just had to be there. That’s why these lists will get more skewed and difficult as the years go on.
Thierry henry is the king of the premier league
I then agree
He’s an arrogant twat though
I'm an arsenal fan... and I'm surprised Zola was never even mentioned. When you're talking about early prem players, Zola was just lovely to watch! Not saying he gets in, but he's someone that should surely be mentioned when it comes to best 11's
Wouldn't make this all time list now but should've been mentioned in the benched list.
Henry is of course an all time great, but im just glad more and more people are starting to realise just how insanely good Bergkamp was. there's a reason why Henry said that Bergkamp was the best player he had ever played with. absolute world class
Hazard getting omitted was painful. For me, he has to go in. Whether that means switching him out for cesc and switching formations or what idk but for me he has to be in
Loved this combo and conversation amongst men! Banter is good but I like real football talk
Amazingly done ,respect both ways
People forget how many assists Henry got as well being top scorer & was a absolute baller as well! 🔥🔥🔥
henry has over 600 goals and assists including international football as well, won a world cup, the euros, the champions league, the sextuple with barca, 2 premier leagues, seria a, la liga, ligue one and a whole lot more all whilst being one of if not THE best player on the pitch week in week out. 4 premier league golden boots in a time when defenders all across the league were solid and up against other incredible strikers. henry was honestly mesmerising.
This got me all nostalgic. Football might be better today but its certainly NOT more charming and entertaining
It’s not better at all
Arsenal fan here but surprised zola didn’t get a mention. Better than both hazard and robben
Love the format, civil and gives some opportunity to appreciate the players and some of their background. I think everybody gets starry eyed when they say "Bergkamp"
For good reason, though drogba should’ve been dropped
It seemed a little forced, agreeing with both sides like it was never gonna end
Chec Dixon, Adams, Terry, Cole Viera, Kante Hazard, Bergkamp Giroud, Henry
These two are the best to do this. The most unbiased fair football KZheadrs
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 have you never seen Robbie or AFTV before
@@user-yc3zp3le1b yeah he’s unbearable on it. On other channels he takes the blinkers off and is pretty reasonable and realistic unlike a lot of them that can’t see past their own team
Gotta have Kante in ahead of fabregas. Who cares about team balance and all that. In terms of purely who are the best 11 he has to be in there.
Kante was awesome but i would prefer Fabregas. 350/50G/117A
Yeah. F that. Put Hazard in goal 😂
@@telmoliciousand put cech over drogba
take out lampard.
@@kolaranzefabregas was brilliant. But Kante singlehandedly elevated teams. Took trophies wherever he went. Won the title with Leicester alongside Danny Drinkwater, took the title to Chelsea who had just finished 10th, won the FA Cup, Europa League, Champions League and World Cup. United could never get the best out of Pogba but France play him with Kante and suddenly he's a world beater. That 2021 Champions League run with Kante is one of the greatest we've ever seen. Literally just back to back to back man of the matches against the best midfields in the world. Fabregas was brilliant. But Kante at his best didn't need good players around him to win trophies. Put him in Emirates era Arsenal and they win a PL, he's that good.
Henry and Drogba together, that would be very dangerous
Yeah🤝
didn't even watch it yet but i know this is going to be interesting 🤣
I'm an Arsenal fan, but I love Rorry Jennings' analysis ❤
Congrats Rory 🎉
I think the team was spot on. Only 1 of change is Lauren instead of Dixon.
Diamnond in midfield. Berkamp CAM/CAF with Henry and Drogba ST
I would revise their XI into a 4-2-3-1 GK: Petr Cech RB: Lee Dixon RCB: Tony Adams LCB: John Terry LB: Ashley Cole RDM: Patrick Vieira LDM: N'Golo Kante (I'd argue that having him instead of Lampard would allow Vieira more freedom to perform as a box to box, and both could rotate in these roles pretty well) RW: Eden Hazard CAM/CF: Dennis Bergkamp LW: Thierry Henry FW: Didier Drogba
I take GK Cech RB Dixon CB Adams, Terry LB Cole CM Makelele Vieira Lampard SS Bergkamp ST Henry Drogba But some really tough picks particularly in central defence. Adams & Terry edge it ahead of Campbell and Carvalho because they won more English championships (including the old Div. 1) as well as European trophies with their clubs. So hard to leave out folks like Pirès.
Henry Drogba Hazard Bergkamp isn’t a wide man but Dennis is one of my fav players of all time.
that was fantastic even as a villa fan .,love it.
Good discussion fr😂🔥
Vieira played next to Gilberto Silva, and Silva did the defensive cover while Vieira roamed forward, he wasn't a 'defensive' midfielder
Vieira was box to box yes.
LFC fan here. Good content here!
This is so clear of Saturday social it’s just good to see to fans discussing football not bantering each and shouting
Henry Drogba Hazard Berkgkamp Lampard Vieria Cole Adams Terry Ivanovic Cech
The most fair/reasonable team
That shit is ass
Don't know why, but I love this dude
Their team as a team is almost perfect. I personally would put in Ozil/bergkamp over cesc and then Henry Drogba and Hazard. Purely on making the best team possible.l in terms of maximizing the potential of everyone. Though you could easily put in another 5 players and still have an unbelievable team.
Waiting for the 5-0 rant!!!
I literally agree with this entire team!!
GK Cech RB Ivanovic LB Cole CB Campbell CB Terry CM Kante CM Vieira CM Essien AM Bergkamp CF Drogba CF Henry That team wins everything.
Love this debate 💙
Great one!
This team would smash any other team on the planet ngl. What a crazy combined XI 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Robbie talked about Bergkamp compliments Henry but Ricardo Carvalho compliments Terry and conceded 15 goals in 1 season. Hazard is a better footballer than Bergkamp. Roy did poor job in this, and left it basically to robbie to decide
The contrast between them and Robbie and Buvey is hilarious!
This team has no width. Cesc, Vieira and Lampard are central. Lee Dixon is a classic full back who will not pile down the wing. Henry was an inside forward who was halfway between the wing and centre forward, which means you have less width on the left and Bergkamp spent his entire career in the middle.
Arsenal fan here but me personally i would have Vieira Kante and Lampard as midfield 3 For me Bergkamp is Arsenal best ever player, so if you have Henry in there... you have to have Dennis
“Throwing away my bias for Cech” lmaooo, as if it was remotely close 😂 Lmao Robbie
Hey Rory, I sat opposite you on the train. I was too shy to say hi, anyways hi!!!!😂
This was a good watch
Loved this video. I’m surprised there was no mention of Anelka. Sadly Anelka wasted his career.
Olivier Giroud is such an underrated striker with both Arsenal and Chelsea fans
Really annoying player for any opposition. Always had a knack of being in the right place at the right time and scored some big goals!
He's massively valued but he's similar to say Essien. Amazing player, should get a mention, but never quite makes all-time lists
Nah Chelsea fans rare him highly. Never met one that doesn't love him. Gets nowhere near this XI though considering the calibre of players that miss out.
But are you gonna replace Henry with him?
@Anon97123 as a Chelsea fan I adore Giroud and as a 15 year old who fell in love with Chelsea in 2018 he's one of the reasons I started watching them
I agree with most, but as far as a Midfield goes, you could argue as to who to put in until the cows come home, there were so many World Class Midfield Players from both Clubs, how can you leave any of them out.
Quality vid an team lads
Non biased neutral: Cech Dixon, Adams, Terry, Cole Robben, Vieira, Lampard, Hazard Bergkamp, Henry
Robben 😂
Bayern's Robben would have to go into the side, but Chelsea's Robben isn't close
It's extremely similar to mine, particularly the back four and attack. But Drogba made a much bigger impact than Hazard or Robben in England and I also pick Makelele to anchor my midfield, that dude changed Chelsea's fortunes.
@@pritapp788Makelele wasn’t better than Vieira, don’t be daft, Vieira was box to box, much better on the ball it’s not even close.
Robbie mentioned it towards the end, so yes take fabregas out and put Hazard in. Change formation to 4 2 3 1 and it's covered. Fabregas is pure class but he can go to the bench for hazard
Cech Dixon, Adams, Terry, Cole Vieira, Lamaprd, Fabregas Sanchez, Henry, Hazard
Correct answer.. Bergkamp doesn’t make the team in a 433 and if he does Fabregas doesn’t make the team what’s the point of Fabregas and Bergkamp to move the best striker the EPL has seen to the wing?
Drogba has to be in
@@fromcamdenwithlove He can only go ST and he isnt replacing Henry.. 442 then yes and Fab would come out
@@thebrotherhood5322Drogba is the one who was moving Henry.
@@thebrotherhood5322That's pretty much where Henry played. If you're playing football in today's game Henry would be better on the wing. Bergkamp through the middle and Hazard on the right makes sense.
Cech Ivanovic terry adams cole Vieira lampard fabregas Hazard bergkamp henry I feel fabregas is a walk into the team legend for both clubs playing for combined 12 /13 years.
I agree with Robbie that Pires has to be in ahead of Fabregas. I think that Pires could be the most underrated player in premier league history, Everyone talks about the partnerships of Henry and Bergkamp and Petit and Viera but for me the best partnership was always Pires and Henry
No Sol Campbell? Are you insane? He gave Arsenal songs for ETERNITY.
Cech, Cole, Terry, Campbell, Ivanovic, Vieira, Lampard, Pires, Hazard, Bergkamp, Henry
Its funny. Bergkamp was unreal but I don't know why Rory doesn't counter that with Zola lol Zola to this day is still known as Chelsea's greatest ever player as far as talent goes...so I think that debate with have been a lot more interesting.
What would be really interesting… get someone in to do their first team then say now let’s do the next best 11 that 11 would be more interesting
Yo its Bergkamp bro all day. These players nowadays dont get challenged enough hence hazard starts on the bench
Just change it to 4-2-3-1 Cech Dixon. Terry. Adams. Cole Lampard. Viera Hazard. Bergkamp. Henry Drogba Job done. Although I would personally drop hazard. Put Makalele alongside Viera. Bergkamp out to the right and Lampard at the 10.
A must win for the Gunners tomorrow
4-4-2 GK. Cech Rb. Lee Dixon Cb. Terry Cb. Adams Lb. Cole Rw. Hazard Cm. Vieira Cm. Lampard Lw. Henry Cf. Bergkamp St. Drogba Manager: Mourinho
I put Ricardo Carvalho as the alternative option to Tony Adams, he was calm on the ball & his tackling was impeccable
@@zariqeezham9210 Don't sleep on Sol Campbell too...
@@patriciamchunu4936 i started watching Prem in 2004-05 so i probably barely watched Sol altho i knew he broke many Spurs fans heart joining Arsenal, i grew up with Man United vs Chelsea & Arsenal post invincible season
@@zariqeezham9210 same here. but I've: • Seen the 2006 UCL final • Watched both (Carvalho & Sol) • Heard older people speak • Watched season reviews before 2004/05 to know that Sol was immense... They're both proper alternatives to Adams...
@@patriciamchunu4936 I like Carvalho more & im not even a Chels fan in the slightest (United fans), he's so calmer on the ball & his tackling was top notch. He's so underrated (not by me) that not many people brought up his name when discussed on the best CB to play in the Prem. Terry is obviously great but wouldn't look great without Carvalho on his side, only 15 goals conceded in the whole 2004-05 oh my days🔥😂
I agree with this team 100%
Ashley Cole is a Chelsea batty boy is still one of the best songs made I don’t care😂
Arsenal 3 Chelsea 1
Dennis berkamp didn't play away and got to kick him just for that . Berkamp best and hazard best , what are we talking about here . Dennis is the man but for what that team needs 100% hazard
This was a therapy session for Robbie lmao
im surprised Reece James didnt get a mention. On his best day he's as good as any right back in Chelsea history IMO
Coming from a neutral, going with a 3-4-1-2 formation Cech Campbell Terry Cole Essien Vieira Lampard Hazard Fabregas Drogba Henry Honorable mentions/Bench 1. Bergkamp 2. Tony Adams 3. Carvalho 4. Pires 5. Kante
This team doesn't make sense
Didn't get to watch Bergy play, shame for me as an Arsenal fan, but I have to say Harzard should be there.
N'golo Kante is the best Midfielder to ever play for Chelsea and hes clear of Vieira. Nostalgiaaaaaaaa
If yk football. Hazard is without a doubt in the team
Drogba Henry - Bergkamp - Pires Lampard - Vieira Cole - Terry - Adams - Dixon Cech
Lampard at Holding? Youre having a laugh.
@@telmolicious you can hold deez
@@ArsenAl-zorK That is a tempting offer. I’m good though 😂
Pires ahead of Hazard and Cesc??! Good one mate🤣🤣
Almost spot on in my opinion..
Vieira was a better player than Kante. Makelele, as a defensive mid, was better than both though. His best days were with France and Madrid, but he still managed to win two league titles, two EFL cups, one FA Cup and was part of the team that got to the CL final with Chelsea. His time in England is massively underrated IMHO.
Drogba was a serious player who always turned up in finals for Chelsea. But there is no debate re Bergkamp and Henry. Bergkamp is probably the most naturally gifted & intelligent player to grace the league and Henry was a beast in his prime.
Surely Drogba rides the bench with Henry/Hazard aside a false 9 Bergkamp your starting 3. With Cesc and Lampard in this team you have 0 width without Hazard and an already congested middle
The Don🔥
Did Rory ask is Viera better than Kante? That’s maddddd lol…Vieria goes in this team no question ask.
play a 4 4 2 viera , lampard in the middle hazard on the left berkhamp(magician) on the right henry(GOAT) and drogba on top defence remains the same
the squad is kind of old so using a old staple one is best
Cmon guys this way too easy to fix. Take out cesc and put bergkamp at cam/10 role. Henry drogba hazard front 3. Viera, lamps, bergkamp, henry, drogba, hazard. Cmon boys
My suggestion is Bergkamp in AM, Cesc out, and Hazard on the right
Agreed
Hazard never played on the right though
@@JimmySands-pd7xt Hazard played rw in Lille and few early games in Chelsea
Cech Azpi Adams Terry Cole Viera Lampard Hazard Bergkamp Drogba Henry Any other answer is wrong imho. The amount of goals that offensive line would slam is insane with clutch player in finals with one of the keys to defensive record. Man I'd give a leg to see this
As an Arsenal fan I was agreeing with all of this but I do think Robbie needed to be lenient on the RF position.
Could go 442 snd have henry and hazard on the wings. Not realistic but more fair for the players selected.
Cech Sagna. Adams. Terry. Cole Vieira Lampard. Fabregas Bergkamp Henry. Drogba
"I don't see the problem bro" - Don Robbie 😂
Cech - Cole/Terry/Adams/Dixon - Vieira/Kante/Lampard - Hazard - Henry/Drogba (4-3-1-2)
Could we make an England 11 out of the current M City, Arsenal and Liverpool squads?
Take Fabregas out, put Bergkamp at number 10 and stick Hazard on the RW
