    Either England 1966 or Netherlands 1978 fans will be cursing Danny Mills and Stephen Warnock for drawing them together in the next half an hour or so. It could have been a final.

    Mark Lynch: Denmark 86 has to win this. Absolutely class

    Lord Alex Loveless: There are some crackers in that selection, however there is a distinct lack of the awesome Mexico 1998 kit!

    This is a tough one for me, two nice jerseys from two of the smaller countries to have reached a World Cup.

  14. Here's what you could have won...published at 09:36 British Summer Time 12 June 2018

    We tried our best to get down to a final 32 (including only one from each country). But there were plenty of disputes from us in the Salford office over some of the contenders.

    I still maintain the Cameroon 2002 jersey is one of the all-time greats. And I'm not just biased because I still have the one I bought 16 years ago...

    Although France's 1982 exploits will be remembered for penalties agony in the semi-finals against West Germany and the agony felt by Patrick Battiston when he was almost decapitated by keeper Harald Schumacher, the squad should also be remembered for their lovely v-necked jersey with the famous Gallic rooster badge proudly... roostering.

    They have a tough first-round match against Peru 1978. Who can forget the white kit with the diagonal red stripe? Nobby Solano must have a stash of them in his cupboard.

    Nick Bruzon: Only two man-made objects are visible from Outer Space. The Great Wall of China and the lion’s head on Cameroon’s Italia 90 shirt. It’s an absolute thing of beauty, too. A modern day seventh wonder of the world. There’ll be no justice if this doesn’t win
