    I cant understand how people can put Lahm as right back in the team of the tournament when he didnt play one single minute in that position in the tournament, may aswell put four centrebacks as the 4 defenders if you are not determining the best player in that position as there are far more deserving defenders out there than Lahm who i thought wasnt at his best.

    Based on picking players in the position they actually played in:

    Casillas

    Gabre Selaisse Bonucci Sergio Ramos Alba

    Busquets Pirlo

    Silva Ozil Iniesta

    Balotelli

    (before anyone says I've left out Ronaldo, yes I have...in favour of Iniesta)

    Uefa seem to have got it about right, did they pick a first 11?

    Only change I'd make would be Pique for Bonucci.

    I'm surprised the amount of talk Torres is getting so far. Ok he won the golden boot but of his 3 goals, 2 were against us and the other was in a game where they were already 2 up with about 10 mins to play.

    He was a sub most of the time as well

    Probably felt a bit pushed to include 3 Spanish players admittedly.

    I really wanted to have Contrao in there, exceptional display for him. Was considering him over Lahm truth be told, and I'm a massive fan of the Bayern man.

    Pepe, Fabregas, Cassano, Moutinho, Ibra, Pilar, Selasie, De Rossi, Gerrard, Xavi and Agger deserve notable mentions.

    Iniesta?


    Tad :o that I voted for Iniesta in the other thread for Player of the Tourney before posting in this one but yet I forgot about him :P

    I'd swap him with Ronaldo so :)

    You're right, but picking that way can be kind of rubbish.

    I'd like to have Ramos, Piqué and Hummels over say, Özil. But that means I'd need to have Ramos at RB, where he can play, but didn't at any point in the tournament.

    I'm doing it anyway. :P

    Lahm is an RB, haters gonna hate.
    And Ibra's not getting the love, he played brilliantly in all 3 games but was let down by his team.
