Luis Suárez turns 30 today, joining a select band of only four players in Barcelona's squad in their fourth decade – but he will not have to wait long for more company.
Over the coming nine days club-mates Arda Turan and Gerard Piqué also celebrate their 30th birthdays, while Lionel Messi will follow suit in June. Something must have been in the waters in 1987!
Indeed, the list of players turning 30 this year is a stellar cast, the makings of an impressive side.
Born in 1987 (in birth order)
Jamie Vardy, Luis Suárez, Arda Turan, Gerard Piqué, Edinson Cavani, Jan Vertonghen, Dimitri Payet, Sami Khedira, Joe Hart, Leonardo Bonucci, Cesc Fàbregas, Dries Mertens, Kevin Gameiro, Lionel Messi, Moussa Dembélé, Marek Hamšík, Marouane Fellaini, Gonzalo Higuaín, Karim Benzema, Éder.
Take the challenge
That got us thinking: what would be the best XI, and could you beat it with a team using players from your own birth year?
Let us know on Twitter or Facebook using #MyYear11 and we will feature the best ones. Assuming we get our diaries in order, it has the makings of a decent tournament.
Alot of the 87 88 players played at u20 world Cup here in Canada in 2007. I was blessed to see guys like Vidal, Sanchez, Aguero, Cavani and Suarez play live.Has there been a better crop than 1987? Use #MyYear11 - UEFA Champions League - News - UEFA.com
