Hahahaha. Seriously, HAHAHAHAHAHA.

Totti having a piss poor season. Tell me do you watching any football other than the prem and do you listen to anyone else other than who sky tell you to?

Why does Gerrard have to be there? Have a good season yes but still wouldn't be in my top midfield in the premiership.

Personally I can't believe more havent put in Xavi or Inniesta.

It's ok, I made up for them. He's in my team 10 times

Nalz · 26-03-2008 03:06PM

Apols lads I was mixing up Totti and Toni, for the life of me I dont know how. I rate Totti highly, he's a handful in the awkward role he plays in the Roma formation. But Ibrahimovic ahead of Torres, Drogba, Tevez, Berba, Benzema, Robbie Keane even (oaky cheeky I know but going on this year yep for sure)!? Trezeguet is having a great season also, and if Torres is to play I'd rater have Kaka or Rooney behind him. Ibrahimovic - he's overhyped. He gave next to nothing against Liverpool. Hes scored only 7 goals from open play this year (8 pens) and Inter are top of the league. Not exactly fantastic. Overratted completely. He's not a poor player dont get me wrong, I just don't get the hype. Looks great on youtube yeah but not for me. I'll stick to Kaka and Torres...

Well if you mixed up Totti and Toni I guess it isn't. Totti is a legend.

Come on, Ibrahimavic didn't put the ball in the net against Liverpool but he was a right handful. His movement; touch and physicallity are awesome. Again, we are talking about the last few years and this is his worst season in three.

Ferdinand is markedly better this year than he has been the past two years. Plus there are still crunch ties in the league and champions league remaining so we'll see. Surely Nesta, Terry, Cannavarro (this is worst season in years), Puyol and (gasp) Vidic get in before him!!??

Far from it, its a fine team. I havent seen much of Lahm since the WC to justify him in my own team but he has quality. Pirol out left? Id maybe fit Gerrard in there.

BTW TRILLA, Luca Toni has 16 goals in 23 games for Bayern, so you seem to be talking brown once more.

Nalz · 26-03-2008 03:55PM

ARMOR87 - Toni na, nowhere near anyones team here so far. Infact, very few players in German league at all. I could list at least 15 strikers streets ahead.

Really!I just going to have to agree to disagree with you there on that one.

Isnt Lahm Bayerns 3 choice full back? I havent watched Bundesliga action in so long so Im not quite sure.

put him in your team ahead of 15/20 better strikers then

iregk · 26-03-2008 05:50PM

Trilla, I dont think people are saying he warrants a place in the world 11, I think we are taking issue with your claim that he is rubbish!

While he may not be the worlds best he is on cracking form this season for bayern.

An Citeog · 26-03-2008 05:55PM

Hmmm, changed my mind a little! My best 11 would be:

Yeah i know, im overdoing it and havin a laugh but I've never liked him since the WC...big awkward fcuker but I'll havta admit his record of the years speaks for itself. He's no Totti though! Still think Abidal and Ibrahimovic are overhyped, and Toure has been poor this season.

I actually had him in my first team (4-4-2) but I think RVN and Drogba are better suited to playing the lone striker role.

Meh, I still think Drogba and RVN are better at it.:p You could easily argue the point about Adebayor, Torres, Eto'o, Luis Fabiano, Ibrahimovich, none of whom are even on the bench.

Really ?

Ibra - 32 apperances - 20 goals (8 penos)

Torres- 42 apperances - 30 goals (0 penos)

Ibra has only scored 12 goals from open play from 32 games. The vast majority of which have been starts. This is in a team that is walking away with the Italian league. So in 10 extra games, Torres has scored 18 more goals from open play. I know penos count but you really want your striker to be scoring from open play as well.

I think he is amazingly overrated. Great player and scores some class goals but nowhere near best world 11 material. I just used Torres as an example by the way.

My team -

Casillas

Alves

Ferdinand

Ramos

Evra

Mascherano

---Messi

Kaka

Etoo----Torres

Buffon
RVN
Essien

Would have someone else instead of Clichy, just cant think at the moment.

Seaneh · 17-04-2008 10:12PM

Ibra is, IMHO, peerless, nobody else plays like him, no other striker in the game brings his team mates into attack as well or creates space for others as well.

Torress is grand, yeah, fantastic even, but Ibra is just insanely gifted.

I'm a big fan of Ibrahimovic but I wouldn't have him ahead of Eto'o, Torres, RVN and Drogba (last season). He's like a better version of Berbatov imho.

Ibrahimovic has got 8 assists, Torres has 4.
