A best XI from Darren Ferguson’s three League One promotion-winning Peterborough United sides

Manager Darren Ferguson has now steered three Peterborough United teams into the Championship.

I decided to pick a composite best XI from all three squads with the proviso the individuals had to have played in more than half of the regular season League One matches.

The 2008-09 and 2020-21 teams finished runners-up and won automatic promotion. The 2010-11 side finished fourth and won the play-offs, but Ferguson only returned to replace Gary Johnson as manager midway through that season.

I’ve selected a 4-2-3-1 formation to best suit the players at my disposal. It was tough and I’ve had to leave out so many players who had outstanding Posh careers. Any one of the three regular right-backs would have been worthy selections.

I’m sure my team would the League One title though!

Let me know what you think...
