This is going to annoy a lot of people, Romelu Lukaku being one of them.

Lukaku sparked a healthy debate on Monday night, when he suggested that the FA should put together a Premier League All-Star game between the North and South of the country. Supporters went back and forth, arguing over the ins and outs of the hypothetical charity game. https://twitter.com/JOE_co_uk/status/968410130336370688 In light of the Manchester United forward's idea, we've taken a look at the cream of the crop from sides based on either end of the country. Unsurprisingly, champions elect Manchester City dominate the North while the reigning Premier League champions Chelsea fill out six places in the starting XI for the South. Unfortunately for Big Rom, we couldn't find a place for him in the starting XI for the North but we've been somewhat kind and given him a place on the bench.

The North

Subs' bench: Ederson, Valencia, Bailly, Gundogan, Silva, Sane, Lukaku.

The South

Subs' bench: Lloris, Davies, Christensen, Dembele, Alli, Willian, Morata.
Now comes the real question... Who would come out on top?
