    But with a twist, as you are not allowed to pick more than one player from one nation. So ****ing bored, and nothing much else to talk about on here.

    Cech

    Lahm Kompany T.Silva Alaba

    Vidal Toure

    Iniesta

    Ronaldo Messi Ribery​

    Beat that, bitches!!!

    Put Neuer in goal, swap Lahm out for Ivanovic & find room for RVP and we have a half decent team.

    The front three would score a TON of goals and that midfield would practically never misplace a pass.

    Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

    You got two Poles in your team, so I still win.

    Also can't believe I am the only one that has picked Ribery , the guy is the current European footballer if the year and has been unplayable for about a year and half. He has destroyed practically every right back that he faced in the last year or so.

    Question for Super Jack, if I want to pick Januzaj does he count as Belgian, English or Albanian for the nationality? <run>

    If you want to pick him ahead of Messi, Ronaldo, Bale then I'd be more worried about my sanity than his nationality <whistle>

    Too many of you guys playing Messi out of position...

    Cech
    Alves, Kompany, Ramos, Alaba
    Toure, Modric
    Bale, Ozil, Ronaldo
    Messi

    I genuinly put my right back as Zabaleta until I got to the forwards and realised what I'd done <laugh>

    But he has been ridiculously hyped up after one good game. English through and through.

    The real stress is picking only 3 players up front that do not defend at all (or very little).

    Essentially, if you are sensible you can't pick Messi, Ozil and Ronaldo together. For me, it shows very obviously why putting Ramsey in the #10 spot is persuasive to Wenger. He can pick a striker and another out and out attacking winger and not have to worry about them tackling back. However, we don't have to be sensible for this.

    Yid, Messi played attacking from the right a lot in years past, with an out and out CF.

    De Gea
    Piszczek-Kompany-Luiz-Alaba
    Y.Toure-Vidal
    Messi-Ozil-Ronaldo
    Falcao

    OOps - can't have Lahm and Ozil.

    Also, interesting to see that Casillas has still made some people's team, despite not even being the best keeper at Real Madrid.

    I wasn't saying he can't play there but that it's not his best position. Since he's turned striker he's become arguably the best player of all time and broken all scoring records infront of him. I know it's not that serious but if you were the Barca manager and played Messi on the wing you'd be sacked.
