Here's my 2nd attempt with a more standard formation.

4-3-3


Cassilas
Maicon, Vidic, Pique, A.Cole
Xavi, Essien, Iniesta
Messi, Drogba, Ronaldo​


Subs: G.Bale, F.Lampard, G.Terry, M.Ozil, P.Cech, Xavi Alonso, Puyol.

I think Bale is world Class but Messi, Ronaldo just edge him slightly.​

If you're just picking your dream team fair enough but I thought you were picking the best players from 2010/2011 so Drogba wouldn't even get near in my opinion.

I think you should just go the whole hog and change your name to Chelsea La La La ;)

Any better suggestions? I would have liked to say Budstuber but he hasn't kicked on the way I was hoping. Evra's not all that, Clichy is getting worse as the days go by, Chiellini might have been given a mention but Juve have had a poor season by their standards. Bale plays in Midfield now, Lahm plays mainly on the right. Abidal unfortunately became ill. Maxwell is very good but not quite great. Capdevila is past it, Marcelo is a decent shout but not quite there yet. Chivu is good, but not better than Cole. The same applies to the likes of Bastos, Coentrao, Navarro, Heinze, Taiwo and Pranjic. That just leaves Cissokho who is in a poorer league, Riise who's still playing well but World Class I'm not sure about, and finally Antonini who has been good for Milan, but not one of their best players.

I can't think of many more options really.

He's good, but not quite the finished article (needs to play against better opposition week in week out), which is why I wouldn't consider him for World 11 this year. Despite all the interest in him, he is only playing in Portugal, which is not in my opinion an elite league (it's a very good league, but not elite). A move to a better league combined with his current rate of development would certainly make him a great shout next year, but this year he hasn't proved himself in a top 4 league (England, Spain, Italy, Germany). In 12 months time though I'll very probably be picking him, well, I will unless he does a Bale and makes his way into midfield, which wouldn't completely surprise me.

Isn't it funny everyone (including the media) goes on about Rooney, lampard, gerrard, Terry being world class but Ashley cole is by far our most consistent performer in an England shirt, who used to have Ronaldo in his pocket pretty much every time he's played against him. He is a vile little man but is a world class left back.

Chiellini is a centreback anyway. You've mentioned the better others: Evra, Coentrao, Cissokho. The sad thing is that it possibly is Cole.

You missed out a " :jerkit:" on Rooney, Ronaldo & Fletcher
Click to expand...


Can you tell i was raised by a united fan, they're effectively my second team.


Rooney is without doubt a little gobs***e, but on his day he's a world beater, Ronaldo I have nothing but admiration for. Fair enough he 'engineered' his move to madrid but like he said there was nothing left to win in England, (unless he joined liverpool and had a crack the Europa League :))

And Fletcher is my idol, he is everything i like in a footballer, under-rated, not afraid to get stuck in and makes big name players seem anonymous when they play against him. It was telling that he was missing when united got destroyed by Barca in the champions league final.

Crickey, that didnt work out well, but you know what i mean, Busquets holding, Valdes not behind Alves but in nets and Iniesta not holding Xavi's hand!

Casillas
Lahn Vidic Cole
Alonso
Xavi Iniesta
Messi Villa Ronaldo​

bit undecided on the 2nd center back, has to be a more ball playing CB then Vidic, similar to Ferdinand but not him can't stand him 1 bit.
