    Manuel Neuer
    Phillip Lahm, Mats Hummels, David Luiz, Marcos Rojo
    Bastian Schweinstiger, Toni Kroos
    Arjen Robben, James Rodriguez, Lionel Messi
    Thomas Muller

    Not sure why David Luiz makes that team considering the team conceded 10 goals in 2 games

    Lionel Messi was a bit of a disappointment for me this tournament and therefore should not be in there nor get the best player of the tournament

    Rest I cant really knock, possibly Daley Blind for Marcos Rojo

    Pogba possibly could of been in there

    David Luiz ??????? Apart from that outstanding free kick, he was terrible.

    I know FIFA haven't been popular for sometime but I can't remember them being a bumbling as they have been recently. I can't think of a time that popular opinion has held them in such low esteem. Blatter being booed at the world cup final and he'll still have the audacity to run for election again. Disgraceful.

    Away from the blatant PR picks though, what a ****ing team that would be without Luiz!

    On current form I'd put Cuarado in over Messi but yeah. Unbeatable.

    Actually I'd be tempted to put Khedira in over Bastian as well. Last night showed how important that lad has been to the team.

    Maybe Neymar goes in ther as well, team was **** but the kid was fantastic.

    Muller back into MF, Scwein out, Neymar up top.

    Vlaar or the Costa Rican hulk CB.

    Could buy that.

    Only time you'll see Hulk in a conversation about the team of the tournament that.

    ha, absolutely.

    Was he called Gonzalez? Where they all called Gonzalez? Let's go with Gonzalez....

    In fact lets go with Vlaar, who was unreal.

    I've always quite liked Vlaar, back to his Feyenoord days, thought he was solid in a very poor Villa side, but no, didn't think he had that tournament in him at all.

    He was magnificent like.

    Aston Villa have some canny players on the quite, I also like Baker who plays alongside Vlaar and they form a steady pairing.

    What about Mascherano?

    But putting Luiz in was ridiculous. He's a £50m pile of poop. Mourinho must be wetting his pants at this...

    I don't know if it's been mentioned enough.....Luiz!!!! Holy **** that man was awful, Maschereno was awesome. Kadira for the Germans was fantastic too.
