We wanted your suggestions for Leeds' all-time best Premier League XI.

And you delivered!

Here's a first bunch:

Steve: 5-4-1. Martyn, Radebe, Ferdinand, Harte, Kelly, Woodgate, Raphinha, Bowyer, Cantona, Dacourt, Yeboah. Exciting, attacking, creative and entertaining. Everything we currently aren't!

Simon: 4-4-2. Robinson, Radebe, Woodgate, Kelly, Harte, Dacourt, Bowyer, Strachan, McAllister, Viduka, Keane. Brilliant players, were legends of their time. No XI better.

Richard: 3-4-1-2. Martyn, Ferdinand, Radebe, Woodgate, Batty, Bowyer, Strachan, Speed, Pablo, Viduka, Yeboah. No Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, Rio Ferdinand, Eric Cantona or Harry Kewell for obvious reasons.

Lee: 4-4-2. Martyn, Kelly, Dorigo, Radebe, Rodon, Speed, Strachan, Batty, McAllister, Viduka, Raphinha. Mainly nostalgia to be honest!

Neil: 3-4-3. Martyn, Ferdinand, Radebe, Woodgate, Bowyer, McAllister, Batty, Speed, Kewell, Viduka, Raphinha. Best keeper of the 1990s. A dream of a defence -captains all three and nothing will get past them. The midfield has power, pace, speed, passing range, leadership and internationals. Up front is pure world class and will provide goals, goals and more goals.

Jonny: 4-4-2. Martyn, Harte, Radebe, Ferdinand, Kelly, Raphinha, Dacourt, Batty, Kewell, Hasselbaink, Viduka. Leeds have always been a better side when using strength and physicality in the middle and speed and guile out wide.
