[/quote]i was thinking about a particular style of play and also how well the team would work together, thats why some flare players didnt make it.For example, 2 wide boys are flare players whilst diarra and diaby are real anchors that break the game up (seeing diarra at real, he is superb) and alonso often sets the attacking play up. i chose anelka for his movement off the ball as well as his physicality and skill. at the back, hangeland gets a nod for me as he is a steady player who hasnt got the plaudits he deserves and is improving constantly, im surprised that the big 4 arent in for him yet. He is sublime in the air whilst strong in the tackle, the same as vidic really.full backs are pretty self explanitory.on the bench terry is a super CB but not my faveourite in mould. Rooney would be in my team but he isnt a striker in my book and the way ive always liked football seen from a wing approach would mean he is pushing out an anchor or a winger, both of whome deserve their place in my book. gerrard again is worthy but not for the style i was assuming to play. the 2 strikers just have great records.

John 0 Posted May 23, 2009 Fair enough MIA.My approach is generally for the most capableand talented bunch in the world as the best 11 players, rather than thebest 11 that would presumably function most efficiently and effectivelytogether.If i''m going by those standards, this would probably be my team of 11 :--------------------- Cech ------------------------------- Ferdinand --- Vidic ----------------- Lahm ---------------------------- Evra ---------------- Essien ---------------------------------------------------- Xavi -------------------------- Lampard ------------- Ribery ----- Ronaldo ----------------------------------------------------------- Drogba --------------- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Move Klose 303 Posted May 23, 2009 Diaby, Walcott, Eboue, Lloris is this some kind of joke ????????????????? CasillasRamos Ferdinand Vidic Evra Gerrard Xavi FabregasRonaldo Messi Torres Bench: Cech, Terry, Iniesta, Essien, Kaka, Villa That team doesn''t include Ribery, Lampard, Alonso etc so where people get the likes of Diaby from i have no idea.
