Was thinking as much about getting a side that could play together rather than, for example, picking four attacking midfielders and the top two scorers. Torres has worked hard but hasn't made me think, "f***, he's good." One penalty, one blinder and one well taken goalkeeper error. He has done well but not ridiculously so.

to be fair, he has done as well (at least) as Drogba imo

 

My team would be 4-3-1-2

 

 

.......Cech

 

Ramos..Ayala...Cannavaro....Lahm

 

......Alonso..maschareno...Essien

 

.................Riquelme

 

...........Klose.........Torres

[Stevie H]

that mascherano lad looks a real player. sincerely hope that the mancs don't get him.

[anny road]

Surely Rosicky deserves to be on there

 

 

one good game?

 

Ronaldo and Joe COle should be in to then

[Cunny]

cech

srna

cannavaro

marquez

lahm

macherano

riquelme

kaka

ballack

torres

klose

[Owen1978]

He was shyte against Ghana and non existant against Italy.

 

Loved the way the pundits were w*nking over him saying wengers found another one, where is he know?

[nvdm]

Cech

 

Srna (though this might be the weakest position in this year's tourney)

Ayala

Mertesacker

Abidal

 

Mascherano

Kaka

Appiah

Riquelme

 

Saviola

Klose

[Figaro]

Any best team would have to include:

 

Cech or Buffon

 

at the back Ayala and Terry or Ayala and Puyol

 

wing halves Ramos and Lahm

 

In the middle I'd go for:

 

Riquelme Gerrard Mascherano Kaka

 

Torres Klose

[yellow jumper]

re: right backs. hard to put him in after one, pretty easy game, but i thought cicinho was good last night. miguel might become a candidate if portugal progress, although he struggled a little against mexico. cherundolo was magnificent against italy, but s*** against everybody else. would like to include loko of angola just for his haircut.

[Knox_Harrington]

And it all goes to show that Steve Finnan is one of the very best right backs in the world.

[_00_deathscar]

Would be Zanetti if that c*nt didn't leave him out of the squad.

[aka Dus]

Mascherano is the one player you don't want the Mancs to sign.

 

Class act. Gives the rest the space to play as they like. One of the players of the tournament so far IMO.

definitely. looks real quality.

 

portugal's miguel has been the best right-back in the tournament so far by the way.

[Guest Sabre]

 

Terry

 

 

The back three you probably could have put in before the tournament even started - all have been their usual consistent selves.

 

You're wrong there. Terry has been below his normal standard.

 

I'd have Carvalho instead

[sutty]

Cahill would be in mine, therefore I'm not doing it.

[beejay]

The worst team from the quarter finalists (so far) is more fun :

 

----------------------------Robinson----------------------

 

Friedrich---------Terry--------Rusol------------Valente

 

Beckham------Emerson-------Rossi---------Lampard

 

-------------Gilardino------------Adriano--------------

 

Subs : Ricardo, Heinze, Mertsacker, Sorin, Henry

 

[Earl Hafler]

It's the World Cup and threads like this that are killing the main footy forum.

 

Nobody posting " Your fav LFC XI of players with an F in their name " and " Following on from your fav LFC XI of players with an F in their name, what about the letter T ? "

[Knox_Harrington]

Cech

 

Srna

Ayala

Cannavaro

Lahm

 

Mascherano

Alonso

Riquelme

Schweinsteiger

 

Drogba

Klose

Mine's not changed. Maybe Sagnol or Miguel in for Srna.

 

EDIT: And had Luca Toni scored a couple he'd be in for Drogba by now. Still no outstanding candidate next to Klose though.
