pick one.

now.

4-3-3, 4-4-2 and 4-1-2-2-1 are the only formations I shall accept.

- criteria is basically if you had a match tomorrow and had to pick a side to play, who would you choose.
 
To play for my life tomorrow

Casillas
Maicon Subotic Hummels A.Cole
Alonso Khedira
Messi Krasic Ronaldo
Villa

Would pick Alonso Khedira and Subotic/Hummels for understanding purposes.

I so wanted to include Nasri, but not just yet. End of the season maybe.
 
WTF is with everyone picking Alonso?

a good player yes, but I can think of at least 5 better CM's.

FWIW my team.


------------- Neuer --------------
----------------------------------
-- Lahm -- Vidic - Pique --- Bastos -
----------------------------------
---------- Schweinsteiger ---------
--------- Xavi ---- Iniesta --------
-----------------------------------
----- Messi ----------- Ronaldo ----
-------------- Villa ----------------

Casillas is a better keeper than Neuer but I think Neuer is in better form at present.

No real standout at Left Back, nearly picked Cole but I'll give Bastos a crack.

handful of CB options, viewers choice there.

Lahm, Ramos, Maicon, Alves all have a case for RB but with Bastos on the left I want the best defender and it's Lahm.

Midfield pretty easy, don't need a destroyer because those three would never lose the ball, Bastian can do the little required dirty work. Sneijder for Iniesta is the only change I'd accept in the middle.

front three is a lock.
 
Would tear his hammy putting on the g-string you call a uniform.

I think its time for you to build a bridge, to say Sunderland and get over it

Gyan > Torres

This is why no-one takes what you're saying seriously, ever.

Lol, anti-Madrid bias - you don't even have Casillas in there.

Ramos > Lahm as well.
 
Lahm is insanely overrated. If only he was half as effective as he was pretty.

In all seriousness TIG its time to tone down the Torres love. Hes still a star but hes not the goliath he once was
 
Yet, you still think Gyan is actually going to be a good player.

He had a good world cup - he's like El-Hadji Diouf, as I said the other day.

Missed the first part of the post did we? Iker is easily the best keeper in the world but he's been in horrid form since the world cup.

As for Alonso, I never said he wasn't good, I just don't think he's anywhere near "World XI" quality.

Xavi, Iniesta, Sneijder, Bastian, Essien etc. are all better options in the centre of the park.

Ramos > Lahm as well.

I'm not getting into this debate again but I've never seen Lahm get pantsed defensively and yet it happens to Ramos frequently.

When it gets ugly for Sergio, it gets really ugly. cards, horrid tackles, beaten by his man time after time.

regularly puts in a 7/10 performance with the occasional 8 or 9 but when he has a stinker it's a 1/10. Lahm never worse than a 5 but probably never better than an 8.

If he's the best keeper in the world - then he should be in the World XI.

I think everyone thinks hes actually going to be a good player besides you.

No, just no.

Ribery... Alves at LB?... :thumbsu:
 
One bad performance doesn't mean Ramos isn't the best RB.

Two (and a half) defensively apt players in a team of 11. If that team ever played they would get more over run on counter attacks than Arsenal do, and that is saying something.

I agree with sailor girl, he is good at Sunderland. If he moved to a bigger team I reckon he would be another Robbie Keane.

That's the thing, it's happened more than once.

He's lucky that he plays for two bloody good sides, because when he's under the pump he crumbles. mentally and physically.

Go through the games where Madrid has been eliminated from the CL in recent history or when he's come up against Ronaldinho in El Clasico.
