What is your all-time Premier League XI? That is the question we posed to our columnist Chris Sutton, Football Editor Ian Ladyman and football reporter Matt Barlow as we celebrate 30 years of the best league in the world. Sportsmail’s trio of experts got together to explain their selections — and some controversial absentees — while Kieran Gill refereed.

KIERAN GILL: We will start with the goalkeepers, gents, and it’s a full house — three Peter Schmeichels. Somewhere right now a tear is rolling down Petr Cech’s cheek.
IAN LADYMAN: Schmeichel was not only a great goalkeeper but an innovator.
