[_00_deathscar]

I'm sure the R team will just be made up of Brazilian forwards.

Zoff and Zubizaretta, not short of keepers.

[smithdown]

Zondervan

[Hassony]

Zico

[Cobs]

i think this would beat them

 

Banks

 

Brehme Baresi Beckenbauer Breitner

 

Beckham Ballack Baggio Barnes

 

Bergkamp van Basten

 

 

 

subs

 

Barthez

 

Bergomi de Boer Blanc Babbel

 

Butragueno Burrachaga de Boer

 

Beardsley

 

Batistuta Bebeto

[yellow jumper]

van Basten's a V, and the de Boers are dodgy too. O'Leary's not an L is he? nice back 4, and attacking options but i think i'd win it in midfield.

fine

 

Batistuta goes in for van Basten

 

the de Boers are out and Boniek and Bettega are in

 

 

i'm thumping in goals from all over the park - your back 5 aint up to scratch !

 

jeez - i haven't even found a spot for Blinker !

I'd have Boniek ahead of Barthez for the sub keeper role. I tried to do the B's yesterday but couldn't fit Beardsley in the 11 because you'd have to pick the dutch or batistuta ahead of him, and had to select Beckham so I jibbed it.

[Cobs]

and if it's not strictly players who've played in the World Cup I guess i need to find room for Best too

 

 

the B's are battering the bejaysus out your boys here, george

[Knox_Harrington]

---------------- Maier ----------------------

Maicon - Moore - McGrath - Maldini

--------------- Makelele -----------------

----------- Molby -- Mattheus ---------

---------- Messi -- Maradona ---------

----------------- Muller -------------------

 

 

Someone else can do the bloody subs.

 

We win.

[Cobs]

not bad, beats george's lot but lacks natural width

 

and do yer own subs - cop out merchant - otherwise you lack strength in depth

Ha! OK . McMahon, McDermott, Murphy, Mortensen, Milburn, Maxwell, some other lads...

 

Think it's the strongest midfield by miles and my full backs are providing the width.

Abel Xavier would beat the f*** out of all those teams.

i have the best keeper & defence, balance to my midfield, Best is gonna have to come in for digger, guile and goals upfront plus a bench to die for

 

your boys have skill alright but it's a team of shorthouses, i'd just send in a crate of ale pre-match and that's Molby & McGrath taken care of - mind you Best would be in there with them...

You haven't a good ballwinner in your midfield. I've two, plus two midfielders who can dictate the pace of the game and pass it beautifully. I've two of football's finest ever creators and dribblers and a truly great penalty box striker. I also prefer my full backs to yours, but would prefer your centre halves and keeper.

 

I'm confident.

You'd be better picking Blanc, putting Beckenbauer into midfield and dropping Ballack.

 

Best over Beckham rather than Barnes, surely?

[Cobs]

i could always draft in Billy Bremner to do some kicking if we were having probs in midfield but i reckon the Kaiser & Baresi would stop anything coming down the middle, f*** it, i might even play Wayne Bridge

interesting

 

but that's my squad to a tee - options all over the shop

balance innit

 

your up and down worker + great set piece delivery on one side v your tricky wing wizard on the other

 

 

think Barnes/Houghton, Beckham/Giggs, Parlour/Overmars, Ljunberg/Pires

[_00_deathscar]

I think Knox's M's are great.

 

No one fancy doing a 'R' team?

[Woodsyla]

I was just trying it but when you are facing the option of Thomas Ravelli in goal it kind of puts you off.

 

Cracking strike force though !!!!!
