The captain of the FC Barcelona, Xavi Hernández, has answered widely to a question of the English cultural magazine "Shortlist", where wanted to know the opinion of the of Terrassa on which would be his best possible alignment from among all the British footballers. Of course, Xavi has answered in function of his own experience and of the players against which has had the opportunity to play along to his career since it is a member of the Barça. This is his eleven:

Goal

FRASER FORSTER

"We have confronted us to the Celtic four times in past seasons, and always has been incredible. It did some of the best unemployed that have seen never".

Defence

RIO FERDINAND

"It is part of the history of the Manchester United, with a fundamental paper in so many titles. It is strong, but knows to play. It takes out the ball when has the opportunity, and this is part of the style of game of the Barça".

SOL CAMPBELL

"When we win against the Arsenal the final of the Champions 2006, marked a big goal that defines the type of player that is. A central defence of which produces England: strong, big and very difficult to surpass".

JOHN TERRY

"No always I have been elogioso with the form to play of Chelsea, because it is the contrary of what does the Barça. But I can not deny that it is one of the most committed players that have seen. It is a leader for his team and for his country".

Centre of the field

RYAN GIGGS

"Recently I equalised his record of participations in the Champions, and that congratulated me publicly shows the class of man that is. What more impressed me was that, to measure that did greater, was adapting his game. Only the most intelligent are able to do it".

PAUL SCHOLES

"Technically, the best English from Matt Him Tissier, to the that grew seeing. Incredibly gifted. When you looked him, it did that all seemed easy. Never I have seen to anybody that did that play so well seemed so simple".

PAUL GASCOIGNE

"You have to work a lot, but it has to have a natural skill. It was a natural genius and an inspiration for me when it was in The Masia. Only I expect that, they are cuales are the problems that have, can surpass them".

FRANK LAMPARD

"One of the few midfield players of the world with numbers goleadores of forward. It is a big success, and also is technically excellent".

STEVEN GERRARD

"John Barnes is one of the first means that remember to see and of the that admired his skill. Gerrard Is so good like him, and, like Lampard, has all the necessary attributes to be player of the Barcelona".

Forward

THEO WALCOTT

"We were playing in 2010 against the Arsenal in London. We won 0 to 2 and had the total control. There was not any way that escaped the party. It went in he and changed it everything. We finish 2 to 2. We did not know how brake his rhythm".

WAYNE ROONEY

"It has been very elogioso with the form to play of the Barça. And it would fit without any problem, but the United never would have left to leave to one of the best of the world. Still it is the player that does that the things sucedan on the terrain of game".
