Maybe there was a thread on this already, if so point me to it.
However I'd be interested to hear people's current World X1.
In goals I would have Buffon or Cech.
Wing back, Ashley Cole.
Centre, John Terry and Vidic.
Other Wing Back, undecided
Up front, Messi and Torres, Ronaldo didn't have a great season.
Midfield, Frank Lampard, Arshavan, Fabricas, and can't decide the other.
So that's
Cech
Cole Terry Vidic Undecided
Fabricas
Arshavan Lampard Undecided
Messi Torres
you've nearly gone for a Premiership 11 there! It's always fun to do though so here is mine.
Buffon
Alves - Vidic - Ferdinand/Carvalho - Evra
Essien - Xavi - Iniesta
Messi - Torres - Ronaldo
Buffon
Lahm Vidic Terry Evra
Ronaldo Xavi Gerrard
Messi Torres Rooney
Mine was so similar to this I scrapped it. Only differences was Fabregas for Iniesta(very close), Bosingwa for Alves(haven't seen much of Alves) and Cole for Evra (close). Went with Carvalho as well but Ferdinand wouldn't have been second on my list.Quote:

I think its harsh on Gerrard this season to miss out so might put him there instead of Xavi or Iniesta although I know in reality he could not play that role. For such a great playe Gerrard is very hard to fit into any other formation other than 4 5 1.Quote:

What formation are you playing there out of interest.
A few of us just did a random email world XI thing in work today and mine was nearly spot on this. Just put Chivu in for Ferdinand as I love the guy. And Cole in for Evra.Quote:

it was tough leaving Kaka out.... but he needs to get out of Italy.
Very true. Most of the Barca players got plenty of touches but Iniesta was about the only one who looked threatening.Quote:

Buffon doesn't?Quote:

8:Steven Gerrard
9:Fernando Torres
10:Lionel Messi
11:Kaka
I'd play 4-3-3 with my back four obvious and Senna protecting them with Kaka and Cesc free to roam from left to right. I'd play El Nino upfront with Gerrard and Messi either flank.
They'd score 5 goals a game and I'd be loved by all... :D:D
I agree he was poor but he has improved so much this year! he is a class player and deserves to be in my team!! Name a better RB at the moment?Quote:
