Not the greatest face tbh.

Who was looking at the face?

 

[Uppercut]

What face

 

[Jarquis]

Not the greatest face tbh.

Would still imrove that midfield in the "***iness" stakes.

                  Dasayev

Matteh hasn't picked most of his team, and marc hasn't posted his. Anything particularly impressive there? Like the look of Vimes's side personally.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Sean's and UC's also great. GIMH gets credit for picking 11 players with the St George's cross.

Not much in it between a lot of these sides though.

Sagnol    Campbell    Ayala     Sansom

Dunga

Ronaldinho      Overmars

Platini

Rooney

Pretty chuffed with it, all things considered. A lot of goals in the team.

 

[GIMH]

Lacks Englishmen, should be stripped of your title

 

[Johnners]

Andriy Shevchenko to partner Baggio up front.

  Brehme   Cannavaro    Baresi   Zanetti

                  Dasayev

 

[The Sean]

A whole lot of gun sides there.

Uppercut's probably the best to watch, Michael's possibly the most likely to win a League due to the fact that they'd keep about 6472 consecutive clean sheets. And anyone who did actually come close to scoring against them would get murdered.

 

[Jarquis]

Replace Gilberto with Makelele / Vieira in my side and it'd probably attract a few more people
Definite weakest pick

Would Michael's team really beat Simon's in a fight though? Passarella and Montero- does it get any scarier?

I did quite deliberately throw everything into the attacking players early on. IMO the difference between Maradona and someone like Barnes or Litmanen is much greater than the difference between Nemanja Vidic- the last centre-back chosen- and Paolo Maldini- the first. I'm perfectly happy with a Ferrara-Puyol partnership at the back but if I had to pick another winger now I've no idea who I'd take.

 

[Simon]

My Centre back pairing is definitely enough to scare opposition teams, I went for a few personal favs with some pics but I'm happy with my team overall.

 

[Johnners]

Happy with my team, but would do a couple things different next time around. I could have gotten away with picking Brehme for another couple rounds, and gone for someone like Overmars/Hagi instead. That beins said, with Baresi-Cannavaro as the back pairing, and Laudrup feeding Baggio/Sheva I reckon the team would give most a decent run for it's money.

Think UC's team would shade everyone elses though,.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Not convinced. Too many luxuary players for my money, would look a million dollars with the ball but Keane would have to tackle for the whole midfield. Like the look of Vimes's side more; similar balance but Gerrard more of a workhorse to compliment Makelele.

 

[GIMH]

My team is obviously the best. Defence is hard as ****, midfield is ***y and the strikers will score until the cows come home. Easy this football lark, dunno what John Barnes found so difficult tbh.

Pretty sure Keane's more than capable of tackling for the whole midfield

Vimes's side lacks a bit of width with Gerrard on the left I reckon. Would have gone for Freddie Ljungberg, who somehow remained unpicked, there.

Although I guess that's why I've ended up with an all-out-attack side and Vimes has his somewhat more balanced side.

 

[ripper868]

Sledger's team to win through cheating

 

[Johnners]

Matteh to finish his team imo.
