If you could pick 18 teams to start the Premiership...

[Howard_lfc]

..which teams would you go for?

Mine would look something like:

Liverpool
Everton
Man City
Man Utd
Tottenham
Arsenal
Chelsea
West Ham
Leeds
Sheff Wed - always enjoyed going there - till that game.
Newcastle
Sunderland - Just for the derby games with Newcastle
Notts Forest - must have a soft spot for them
Aston Villa
Blackburn - you can get home from there in 35 mins!
Bolton - see above
Middlesbro - lucky to make the cut
Southampton - they were in the top league for so long - got used to them

The ones without the comments are fairly self explanatory. Mind you I expect some of you will differ vastly from my selection.

I'm assuming you mean teams that over the years (and with reasonable fan-base) should be in the top league, because otherwise Everton, United and Chelsea would be out. I think 1 of the East Anglian teams should be there - they've always had sporting supporters and usually played a decent type of football. Get rid of Bolton. I'd also add Birmingham or Wolves for Middlesboro. Otherwise pretty close.

I'd like West Brom, **** side to watch, but they'd do wonders for our goal difference.
