Jamie Carragher and Gary Neville agreed on eight players as they named their combined EA Sports FC 24 Team of the Year.
Carragher and Neville clashed as they selected their EA Sports FC 24 Team of the Year for the calendar year of 2023 on Sky Sports.
However, they were able to agree on eight players before making their cases for the other three selections.
Carragher and Neville agreed on Alisson, Kim Min-jae, Ruben Dias, Federico Dimarco, Jude Bellingham, Rodri, Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe.

As for the other three spots, the Liverpool legend picked Trent Alexander-Arnold while the ex-Manchester United captain selected John Stones at right-back.
On the 25-year-old star, Carragher said: "It's not just him about being a right-back... he's this inverted role - it's been a revelation for him. He's going to be the one in my team who steps in from the back into midfield."
Carragher also opted for Bernardo Silva and Lionel Messi while Neville picked Kevin De Bruyne and Vinicius Junior.
Neville got his phone out to compare Silva and De Bruyne's seasons at Man City, revealing the Portuguese had fewer goal contributions (15) than the Belgium international (22).
Alexander-Arnold and Silva were ultimately named in the EA Sports FC 24 Team of the Year as Carragher and Neville bickered over Messi.
Carragher insisted the Argentine should be included following his heroics last year, which saw him win the Ballon d'Or award.
Neville, however, disputed that the 36-year-old's brilliance took place in 2022 as he referenced the criteria, claiming he only played half a season last year.
He sided with Vinicius Jr, who joined Haaland and Mbappe in attack in the EA Sports FC 24 Team of the Year.
On the Vinicius Jr-Messi debate, Neville exclaimed: "My player... Vinicius has been sensational for Real Madrid.
"I'm not having this continual, emotional drawn towards a player who has hardly played in a year. But we can't pick him for what he's done in 2023."
