As I said, that squad is not the ninth best squad of players in the Premier League.
Listen, somebody wins the Champions League every year, but there's certain teams that I think are remembered very, very fondly.
And I think that Ajax team of 95, and the following season when you got the final again in 96, I think you used to wear Juventus.
But the reason it's so special for me, I was probably 16, 17 watching this team, the amount of young players in the team, but also it's what I would call a...
a typical Ajax system.
No one else seems to play that way.
It might be an Ajax or a Barcelona, you know, 3-4-3 and young players.
It almost seems like that's the real ethos of Ajax.
Listen, Manchester United have got an unbelievable history, but people talk about this team and over the next couple of years when you get to another couple of Champions League finals almost being the greatest team in Manchester United's history.
What are the big differences between that team and the Ajax team?
He's one of the greatest players to ever play in the Premier League, isn't he, Dennis Bergkamp?
That's the team that is, Jamie, isn't it?
Wow.
For me, I think goalkeepers, we've done it tonight in terms of talking about Rea and Donnarumma.
I think goalkeepers playing for the biggest clubs in the biggest games.
High pressure moments for me is a big thing.
You've just mentioned PFA Team of the Year.
And for me, clean sheet percentage comes into it.
Well, that might be explaining who I've gone for for number 10.
So I've gone for Pepe Reina.
