And yeah, Matthaus is gonna be working a lot there. Good work getting Ronaldo in, him taking out three of the top clubs made him a no-go for me. Ronaldo fucked up zidane at 2 clubs, and he may be my favourite ever player, but it pains me to say it, CR is just better. I've still got a spaniard to play with, but I want messi and ronaldo and most Spaniards worth consideration have been at either of the 2 big clubs. Also, when the sheikh signs my front 3 for Newcastle this summer I'll have to rethink to meet the rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You fell into the trap that BFC mentioned and I avoided! (VVD and Shearer share Southampton). Unfortunately someone pointed out to me that that avoidance was pointless since VVD and Keane share Celtic. Replace VVD with Hyypia and bring Shearer in after all, in mine.

A Horse Named Stranger Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Ok, I give it a go. Chilavert (GK, Paraguay), Lahm (RB, Germany), Sergio Ramos (CB, Spain), Danny Blind(CB, Netherlands), Maldini (LB, Italy), Patrick Vieira (CM, France), de Bruyne (CM, Belgium), Giggs (W, Wales), Messi (Argentina), Mane (Winger Senegal), Yeboah (FW, Ghana) For the record, it's annoying that so many good players played at Barca or Juve at some point. oops, missed the in my life time restriction. Updated. FFS, forgot de Bruyne was at Chelsea, so had to switch out Drogba, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I set my dad the challenge and he did exactly the same as well. Will anyone not have Messi? Best player ever and only played for one club, seems a banker. I suppose older people may go Maradona, as he doesn't tie up too many other players at Sevilla or Napoli (and most players who played for his Argentinian teams would likely be from Argentia, and excluded anyway). 50 minutes ago, A Horse Named Stranger said: If you mean Sergio Ramos, then both him and Bebeto played for Sevilla. I can see some proper falling out when people keep getting perverse pleasure in pointing out mistakes. Ha, let the games begin. Just really pissed off my dad by pointing out that Pele and Beckenbauer both played for New York Cosmos. He's fucking seething. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ljkeane Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Right: Oblak, Maldini, Van Dijk, Subotic, Lahm, Erikson, Dunga, De Bruyne, C. Ronaldo, Henry, Messi. Bloody hell that's surprisingly hard. You really have to have Messi, C. Ronaldo and Maldini for me. That rules out a shit ton of top players once you take Barcelona, Real Madrid, United, Juve, Milan, Argentina and Italy out of the equation. I was really scraping the barrel with Subotic as my centre back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of cheating though because I'd forgotten about him until I was reminded by seeing him on a few lists. ETA2: I might go with Gilberto Silva over Dunga then. I don't really actually remember Dunga particularly well, I just felt like I had to go with a defensive midfielder and Dunga was a high profile one who fitted. What's the consensus on how good he actually was? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigFatCoward Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 I'm probably going to get absolutely slated for this but - I get that Hillsborough was a tragedy, it should never have happened and it will be forever a part of the fabric of British sport and society in general. But come on, it was 31 years ago. I don't feel the need to cover facebook on the anniversary of the Jarrow walk every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soylent Brown Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Okay, my go- Oblak Pereira Baresi Hansen Lahm de Bruyne Keane Zidane Messi Shearer Bergkamp I would never not pick Zidane over Ronaldo. The forward line might not be the widest, but it would be very createy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I said i would wait but my train is delayed. I went for flair rather than guts. The German will have to do a lot of the donkey work. My right back is clearly the weak link.

I was sure he was a one club man. I guess that confirms it then Gilberto Silva for Dunga. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
