There is a reason why Felipe (and not Brown) got offered a lucrative contract offer in Saudi.

8 games then out on loan
Can't have been a very good reason

No question that felipe had some talent under there but one memorable performance, in one season, in our worst ever team? doesn't quite do it for me With fred and felipe your reasoning seems rather odd - performances before they arrived or contracts after they left are not things that affect selection in the best ever phoenix eleven. Seems like you're just desperate to have a playmaker in there even though the nix have never been successful with one.
Well you can take a topic like this 2 ways.
Who is the best player in each of the 11 positions to have played for the nix? Or who have made the biggest contribution?
If you take it the first way, I think most people would say that Fred and Felipe are better than Brown and Lia. But if you took it the second way, the latters have been here for numerous seasons so they would probably make a starting XI.

Was tempting to put North or Hearfield into RB and push Manny into the midfield.

So taking it the 'first way' as you seem to be, i guess Barbarouses has to be there given his Roar form this year. Elliott's performances for the Galaxy and All Whites make him a shoe-in. He got an EPL contract too remember - you seem to think these things count. Elrich had an EPL contract too so I guess you'll pick him as well? He played well in the old NSL so has got to be in anyways/ Oh and Richard Johnson surely - played at a high level in England and scored against ManU - in fact that probably puts him in ahead of Felipe?

You've said you would have fred in your side - not because of his performances or contribution to the phoenix, but because of his performances for other teams.
fred: 3 appearances, 1 goal = phoenix best ever

Elliott, Elrich, and Johnson never performed for us. Felipe and Fred did, even if they were only here for a short time. See the difference. I never said i was taking into account their performances for other clubs.
Well you put Paston in there for 'longevity' reasons. So even if Ferrante wasn't the best, he did play 40 odd games for us.
For what it is worth. Contemplated putting Siggy at CB and McKain at DM instead of Brown. But I can't really be bothered thinking any more about the topic.
