not always... you can start a game with less than 11 on your team...

or if you are liverpool they start with about 3-4 players every week..

sorry couldn't resist..

true but If thats the case Jaon O' Connor is second to Alan Barrys at 0.88% an Thomas Barrett the 3rd Highest with 0.77% which is an excellent record considering he would have played a lot of games midfield an Centre Back, Difficult to find a place for him considering that. good utility player.my team would be

1. Eoin Lynch
2. Martin Neary
3. Pa Mcgarry
4 Colm Enright
5. Brian Buckley
6.Dermot Phelan
7.Ken Mcnamara
8.Kevin Mccarthy
9.colm Heff
10. Alan Barry
11. Ross Cosgrave

12. Denis Whelan 13. Mike Ahern 14. T. Barrett

I hope everyone who is naming their team goes to the trouble of sending the entry to limericksoccer@gmail.com or drop into the Limerick Leader Office.

i know the above highlighted lads are good players but its unfair to give stephen 2 places.both lads have played about a dozen games between them,hardly a case for team of the decade.no anthony cusack or ian sullivan,what about gavin mc carthy and muggsy.
