James Milner has played with some great players.

James Milner is still going strong with Brighton as he closes in on the all-time Premier League appearance record.  

A star for Manchester City, Liverpool, and others, Milner, a former England international has played with many of the game’s greatest players but who makes his best ever 11 using players he’s lined up with? 

In 2022, Milner spoke to Four Four Two, and with the bulk of his side coming from his days at Anfield and the Etihad Stadium, Milner’s side is armed with strength. 

In goal, the now 38-year-old has opted for Alisson Becker and the back four protecting him is Trent Alexander Arnold, Virgil Van Dijk, Jonathan Woodgate, and Ashley Cole. 

In midfield, Milner hasn't chosen himself, but you get the feeling he’ll be fine with that as David Silva, Steven Gerrard, and Frank Lampard look to run the show. 

Up front, the golas will be provided by a terrific trio with Alan Shearer, Sergio Aguero, and Roberto Firmino responsible for the team’s attacking play. 

On Gerrard, Milner added, “The best all-round footballer I’ve ever played with: left foot, right foot, heading, shooting, defending. It’s scary to think about it, as you could have played him anywhere and he would have excelled.”
