Former Manchester City striker Edin Dzeko names his #One2Eleven on The Fantasy Football Club.
Dzeko spent four-and-a-half years at the Etihad before leaving for Roma but how many of his old City team-mates make the cut?
Read on and watch Dzeko talk through his picks on Friday's show...
Hart is definitely the best goalkeeper I have played with. I played with him for four-and-a-half years at Man City and he saved us so many times. The two titles we won at City were definitely because of him as he made so many fantastic saves. He was also always there for the team. If things went wrong he was always there being positive and shouting at us from behind. That's why he's my number one.
I played with him at City for only six months before he went back to Italy. I played with for a year at Roma also. He's one of the best right-backs of all time. The quality he has with the ball at his feet, his speed and his ability to see the game as a full-back was just incredible. I'm sad that he's not playing with us anymore.
Kompany is the captain of this side. He was one of the most important players during my time at Man City. He had such a good mentality. He was always thinking positively and was such a good leader. As a defender he also had so much quality and it was an honour to play with him.
I only played for six months with him but what he has achieved since then and how he's improved as a player is just fantastic. It was a shame for Man City and the club's fans that he didn't stay longer.
Aleksandar is a good friend of mine and he gets into this side because of his qualities. He's one of the most professional players I've ever worked with. Like I've always said, he's the modern full-back. With his crosses and his brilliant left boot it was amazing to play with him as a striker.
Yaya was a very nice guy. He was also a quiet guy. Sometimes you'd come to the dressing room and you wouldn't even realise he was there. On the pitch, his quality was with the ball at his feet. When he ran with the ball he was just incredible. He was much quicker with the ball than without it. During the time at the club I think he only lost one ball. It was so difficult to take the ball away from him.
Next to Toure, I'd have Lampard. We only played together for one year but he's totally different to all the players I've played with. His ability to read the game when someone else has the ball and read where it will go in the penalty area is just incredible. Players could learn from him about always being in the right place at the right time to score goals. He scored important goals for Chelsea and then Man City. You don't see players like that very often.
He was the best player I ever played with. The little magician. Playing with him was an incredible experience. It was such an honour to play next him. When you give him the ball, even if he had two or three players around him, he'd control the ball, turn and go with the ball or give a pass. He's just one of the best players in the world. Some people say Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, but what this guy can do and what he did for City was amazing.
Behind the front two is another legend in Francesco Totti. For me, he's one of the five best players in the world ever. To have the chance to play with him and get the ball from him is incredible. I remember when I was growing up the Italian league was probably the best in the world, and I watched him and now I have the chance to play with him. When you see him in and around the training ground and in the dressing room, you wouldn't know it was Totti. That's what makes him such a great player and a legend.
Like most Argentinean players, they were both small, strong, good with their feet and technically amazing. They were also quick and scored so many goals.
Aguero is just someone you have to get the ball to. Sometimes he's walking, walking and then you give him the ball and he just goes and scores. He does that for fun.
Tevez was a player that liked to come to the ball and take it forward. He liked to start the action. He was also a player who could go past two or three players and score. We've seen that many times before.
