Sol Bamba offers a stout defence at the back.SNS Group

There's nothing better to while away a quiet afternoon with a cold brew and a trending topic on Twitter.

We asked you for your suggestions for the Beer XI and your answers quickly made it the top trending topic in the whole of the UK.

You've flooded us with your nominations, so much so that we've had to (ahem) set the bar especially high.

Here is our picks from your suggestions. A huge thanks to everyone who got involved.
