    RM-
    DM- Claros

    Fenwick - Canada
    Louvall - Australia
    Zarabi - Algeria
    Rougier - Trinidad
    Andrews - Trinidad
    Earl Jean - St Lucia

    Not sure about a best XI, half the team looks great on paper the other half look like passengers, not sure about a keeper, maybe Makalamby although he's Belgian did he not represent The Congo at full international level??

    Zarabi or Kujabi at LB, that's a tough yin

    No Keeper?

    Would Makalamby count? - Born I think in the DRC but had dual nationality I seem to remember he played for Belgium.

    Mike Franks in goals. Canadian sub tho was reserve to Nick Colgan around 2000-01 and played twice i think.

    Oops - forgot Eduardo "the tank" Hurtado. Surely worth a place if only for the comedy value.
    More septic than sherman.

    and Mel BottleofSherryO for that one memorable appearance. Cheered every time he touched the ball.

    Based on feedback so far I have:

    GK- Mike Franks

    RB- Fenwick
    CD- De la Cruz
    CD- Bamba
    LB- Zarabi

    RM- Rougier
    DM- Claros
    AM- Zemmama
    LM- Latapy


    CF- Benji
    CF- Killen

    NB: When Makalamby decided to play for Belgium he would have fully aware he would be frozen out of fantasy Hibs best ever non-European XI.

    Id swap Fenwick around with de la Cruz and you'd have a no bad team.

    Kujabi would get in ahead of Zarabi any day. But he still wouldn't get in. I'd play Earl Jean out of position first I think.

    This would be my rather attack minded team. Budgie would be in goals if he has South African nationality now.

    I said Hurtado was on the bench, some of him would have to be on the pitch.
