I can't see how Cashley can't be the first choice left back, even if he is a hateful twit. Surprised that Seaneh is so keen on Samuel considering that his own Milan team have one of the tightest defences in Europe. Decided to lob Javi Martinez in there for the craic too, he is a little gem in a team of turds. As for Ibrahimovic? Lolerskates, I would take Eto'o over him every day of the week (Eto'o was integral to winning 3 Champions League trophies for fecks sake!). As for Ronaldo and Messi - they are undroppable on current form.

Ibra > your mum, it's that simple!

I think, in relation to their importance to their clubs, Ibra and Samuel are the two standouts for Miland and Inter.
Especially the latter.

Yes, but who would you put in the team ahead of him?

Casillas - then you can't pick Ronaldo.
Buffon - no Chiellini.
etc etc

It's about finding the balance, I don't think having Reina in the team is lolworthy at all.

That's just keepers at clubs who prob not have another player in this type selection.

You picked Alex Song ahead of players like Febregas and Nasari and Zambrotta, everything you say from now on is invalid... My team contains world class players in every position.


Just for starters, at 27 Di Rossi had over 70 Italy caps and 230 games for Roma, is one of the best midfielders in Italy and one of the most combative central players in the world. entirely justified.


Zambrotta is 33, has been **** for 2 seasons and is a back up player at Milan, behind Ignazio Abate, a converter winger...

Clearly, he is a powerhouse of world football...

I picked a defensive midfielder, not a holding midfielder. Fabregas is closer to an attacking midfielder and he can't tackle. You seriously underestimate Alex Song.

What? Are you giving me a history lesson now? This is about the last six months. De Rossi was always overrated imo but anyways this is about the last 6 months and he hasn't even been close to his best in that time.

I've seen him playing for the last couple of months in Serie A and the Champion's league and been impressed. Simple.

Reina is at least as good as all those players and probably better than a few. He's a grand choice.

Interesting that Sneijder has only made one team so far.

Where are all the people who reckoned he should win the Ballon d'Or now?

I'd say that people are struggling to find it hard to ignore Lucio or Samuel. There is a distinct lack of quality options there and you can still have Messi and Ronaldo in attack.

I could drop Samuel for Vidic and push in Sneijder instead of Fabregas....

Back during the World Cup I never would have believed that I would be putting VDV into any team of mine, but he has really impressed at Spurs.

Sneijder is only suffering from being in a team that also has some very good defenders and Cesar. I would say everyone still thinks Sneijder is class.

Possibly and you're probably right that there's an imbalance there in terms of options.

But so many people were so vocal about it that I'm just surprised/amused. Personally I thought the fact that Lucio and Samuel weren't even in the Ballon D'Or longlist was a far bigger injustice than Sneijder missing out on the shortlist to 3 excellent players who had big years.

Lloris - flaps like Almunia whenever I've watched him, Reina is far more commanding.
Neuer - seen little of him but on those occasions I have I've felt his reactions aren't up to the same standard as Cesar/Buffon/Casillas etc.
Cech - almost every team has had a Chelsea player selected
Schwarezer - lolwtf?
Friedel - Good shot stopper but was never world class, organisation and distribution could be better.
Hart - young and capable of making silly mistakes, relatively unproven at the highest level still.

At the end of the day, Reina has proven himself at a higher level than all of the above (with the exception of Cech).

What higher level has Reina proven himself exactly? I do agree though that he is better than the above mentioned keepers except Hart. Reina is far more prone to errors than Hart and is also a good bit older.

But for World class keeper, he makes basic errors.

Just look this year alone.

I know every keeper makes mistakes, but he made quite few now.

Very good keeper maybe, but world class, no way.

World class isn't the point. Stop moving the goal posts.

The only suggestions you made in his place are probably inferior to him so you don't have a case for your argument. He remains a reasonable choice for this thing.

It's always easy to pick wholes in other peoples' teams. But you weren't brave enough to put forward a team yourself.

I'm not sure about having De Rossi. I wanted to find another RB to replace Lahm and then put Schweinsteiger in midfield instead of De Rossi.

Evra? I have been watching a lot of Utd games recently and imo his form has dipped and he is nowhere near the player he was a couple of seasons ago.
