Picking an All-time World XI

What? Anyone who saw the Man U vs Real Madrid game where he completly bossed Man Us midfield knows the man was as great defender as a attacker, and could be disciplined enough to stay further back and not commit too much in to attacks.

Fergie himself admitted that was one of the best defensive showings he has ever seen ffs

Redodno was very vertical in his play. Biscuits more horizontal.

I'd actually go with Sammer over Biscuits.

Still waiting, I do like Jibers team though

My team OWNS every other person's team.

2 SOLID CBs. 2 of the best FBs ever that can make blistering runs forward and can also kill any threat on their wings.

DM is Makelele. To me, the best DM ever. I may be bias, but its just my preference. It was hard as f*k to get past him.

I have Zizou who can absolutely BOSS the MF. And then Ronaldinho is there to complement him. Messi is on the LW to receive any killer pass from Dinho and can easily cut in. He doesn't even have to finish, I have one of the best EVER finishers in the history of football in dL. Ronaldo.

Same situation applies for C.Ronaldo on the RW........and then I have Schmeichel in goal.

My team MURDERS yours.

The fact you only have one midfielder who could adequately track back to cover, you'll be exposed time and time again. Awesome in attack but very susceptible to counters...

Cristiano

Maybe,just maybe , on a counter attacking team......which yours dosent particularly look like

Fair enough Doc i just cant agree with picking a player for an eleven such as this without even seeing them and basing it off pure hype and grandfather stories.

Now i remember why i got sick and tired of these threads in the first place

Best fullback? You never heard of Ruud Krol, best LB in the greatest club team of all time and reached two WC finals. Was the best fullback I have ever seen. Makelele? He was great but in todays game, in Europe and in La liga especially, he would be sent off in most games.

This. If your team is not a counter attacking team he should have no place on it.

Thought i would give it a go.

Really? My team or zealous' doesn't cut it for you ?

Your team by the way is very good , especially defensively , though Zealous' might be better .My only doubt would be Rivelino so back , but i ve even seen Busquits in this thread so .. Mine well, i could provide a better one for sure , but i almost wet my panties when i saw it on paper . i believe my team could face any situation given , thought it definitely lacks speed up front

Is it a manager type game?

Serious Attempt.

Me and Z would prob end in a draw

as for your team I don't see you winning the midfield battle and with only 3 in the back pretty sure I could score on you

With that attack and my midfield and defence I doubt you would even see a single shot inside the box

Nah its like Fifa, but had better customize options and allowed you to delete teams to add your own......

http://www.pesgaming.com/showthread.php?t=51059

This for example, this bloke actually deleted every single team and had over 100 classic teams

I use to use them all the time when i was younger......

Use to play like Classic Milan v Classic Real Madrid and Classic Ajax v Classic Barca etc etc.......

It's obviously all in good fun but when you have different generations its about as close as your going to get.

Only 3? We are talking 3 of the best defenders in football history there and it's not just 3. Cafu and Maldini are so high just on paper. They become 5 when it turns to defend and i am sure adding Maldini and Cafu and Rijkaard to that 3 , would make that defense line almost impossible to penetreate. Or make any use of possesion there.

As for my attack , well it lacks speed as i already said , but even 1 counter/chance could be enough for that duo. I don't know if you know or happened to see a classic from these players , i am sure you wouldn't say this.

Anyway , i would definitely win if it weren't for that penalty

Sent off? Yer sh*ttin me right? At age 35, he was STILL a starter for Mourinho's PL winning Chelsea teams. He was that good. You say in the present day? I'm sorry but if you mean that as a result of the constant sky diving being practiced by players these days, ESPECIALLY in La Liga, then yes you would be right.

One of the reasons why Busquets should never be near any team.

Wondering how my midfield would compete? LOL. I find that quite funny. I My 2 CMs are two of the best in the history of football at dominating midfield battles and I have Makelele to clean up whatever rare mess they might make.

Zidane & Ronaldo would absolutely destroy your defense. In fact, they don't have to do much damage. Messi and C.Ronaldo are also specialists at that. And once again, they don't have to do too much. They just have to feed Fatnaldo the ball, or look for their shot.

My team is setup such that, the players don't even have to perform to their full potential because of their supporting cast.
