I firmly believe Possesion football with quick feet, is better than wingers running up and down the wings and crossing.
This team would go far Imo..

.....Neville.........King.....Rio......A.Cole.....
........Gerrard.....Hargreaves....Carrick..........
.Lennon........................................Rooney....

Rooney to come inside, Hargreaves and Carrick protecting the Back four, giving A.Cole more freedom on the Left.....to give that width...
Problem for me is, to utilise Rooneys talents he must be central, and to be central he will need someone who can hold the ball up, this excludes Defoe or Owen for me, which leaves very few options, why isnt Shearer 8 years younger ! Now that would have been some partnership !
