Pick your World XI, but one stipulation...

Only one player from each country, so no Kaka and Ronaldinho, and no Torres and Xavi etc... Only one Argentinian, only one Italian etc...
Only put players in positions they can realistically play.

You know the drill, same as the Premiership XI game already posted. Probably a bit less interesting this time as there is probably more to choose from as well as the odd country who only has one world class player, so these World XI's will probably be considerably stronger than the Premiership ones.

You suck Richie. Did you not read my post? Only one player from each nationality.

 

[RDJ]

Buffon

Alves Vidic Rio Evra

Ronaldo Essien Xavi Messi

Eto'o Ibrahimovic

 

[PeeJay]

Julio Cesar; Ramos, Vidic, Nesta, Evra; Essien, Sneijder; Ronaldo, Gerrard, Messi; Eto'o.

Would have preferred Fabregas or Hargreaves to Sneijder but meh.

 

[PeeJay]

Then again, Hargreaves is Canadian.

 

[Because I'm DC]

Cech

Lahm, Vidic, Nesta, Evra

Ronaldo, Essien, Gerrard, Messi

Torres, Eto'o


Nesta was by default really. Had to decide between Gerrard and Terry.

im just going to quote Richie but change his team

 

[Richie]

Haha sorry! Should have read the whole lot! I just read the title and your team, I'll do a new one in a sec :thumbsup:

Terry over Rio? You're having a laugh. Terry is the worlds most overrated centre back.

Bit of an overstatement, don't you think?

VDS (Holland)

Maicon (Brazil)
Nesta (Italy)
Vidic (Serbia)
Evra (France)

Ronaldo (Portugal)
Essien (Ghana)
Xavi (Spain)
Messi (Argentina)

Rooney (England)
Drogba (Ivory Coast)

Not at all. He is extremely overrated. Carvalho has been making him look good for years. No Carvalho this season and he has been very poor.

You'd pick Maicon over Alves?

 

[Fiat Cunto]

Can i change Given for Cech ?

 

[peterswellman]

You'd pick Maicon over Alves?

I would. I think Alves defending can be suspect at times. Brillant going forward though.

 

[PeeJay]

You'd pick Maicon over Alves?

Now that's a VERY tough one.

Poor Rafael Da Silva.

 

[Because I'm DC]

Chelsea have the best defensive record in the Premiership in a season without Carvalho (for a period) and with Cech supposedly playing worse than 2/3 years ago.
