There are some very familiar names such as Petr Cech, John Terry and Frank Lampard but younger fans will need to ask their parents and grandparents who the likes of Ken Shellito and Charlie Cooke are.
With so many names to pick from, Ross chose not only a starting XI, but also seven substitutes and a manager.
