Building a Balanced 'Home Nations United' XI to Dominate World Football

Have you ever wondered what the strongest combined XI of players from our home nations would look like? Of course you have, because domestic football has been replaced by international duties, and we're all at a bit of a loose end.

Anyway, the combined XI would normally be filled with overrated English players, or be disrespectfully light on recruits from the smaller nations.

But, what if we limited ourselves to a maximum of only three players from each nation? Now, that's when things start to heat up a wee bit. The conundrums arrive when trying to squeeze in your best players, but sacrifices must be made to ensure each nation is accounted for.
