Create a squad of 23

Rules are: you are only allowed TWO players from each of the following clubs:
(this player must have played the entire season for the respective club last season and they must still belong to that club. However, you may include a player like Pirlo, who played for a club listed below last season and has transferred to another club listed below- but this must be listed as part of the new club).
- Sanchez is not a Barcelona player yet, but Lichtsteiner is a Juventus player as he has had his medical.

Fiorentina
Genoa
Internazionale
Juventus
Lazio
Milan
Napoli
Palermo
Roma
Udinese

AND

three players from the rest of the Serie A clubs last season (they must NOT be goalkeepers).

Be sure to have a balance, and think as if you're taking this team to a league vs league championship- meaning you must cover ALL bases. (i.e. minimum of 7 defenders, allow for three goalkeepers).

I'll start...

Fiorentina- Frey (GK), Jovetic (Fwd)
Genoa- Veloso (DM), Antonelli (LB)
Internazionale- Maicon (RB), Cambiasso (DM)
Juventus- Chiellini (CB), Pirlo (CM)
Lazio- Muslera (GK), Hernanes (CM)
Milan- Thiago Silva (CB), Robinho (Wing)
Napoli- Cannavaro (CB), Cavani (Fwd)
Palermo- Cassani (RB), Balzaretti (LB)
Roma- Vucinic (Fwd), Menez (AM)
Udinese- Handanovic (GK), Sanchez (Fwd)

3 others: Astori (CB, Cagliari), Ramirez (Wing, Bologna), Palombo (DM, Sampdoria)

Goalkeepers: Frey, Handanovic, Muslera
Central defenders: Cannavaro, Astori, Chiellini, Silva
Fullbacks: Cassani, Balzaretti, Antonelli, Maicon
Central midfielders: Pirlo, Veloso, Hernanes, Cambiasso, Palombo
Wingers: Menez, Robinho, Ramirez
Forwards: Jovetic, Sanchez, Cavani, Vucinic


I don't think those teams work that well tactically, so I'm sure I will see better squads. Happy team-building!

Fiorentina:Cerci(RW),Vargas(LWB)
Genoa: M.Veloso(DMF),Rafinha(RB)
Inter: Eto'o (ST), Sneider(CM)
Juventus: Chiellini(CB), Marchisio(CM)
Lazio:Muslera(GK),Zarate(SS)
Milan:Robinho(RW),T.Silva(CB)
Napoli:Lavezzi(SS),Hamshik(CAM)
Palermo:Cassani(RB),Sirigu(GK)
Roma:Mexes(CB),Vucinic(ST)
Udinese:Armero(LB),Sanchez(LW)

3 others: Poli(CM Samp) , Cossu(CAM cagliari) , Di Vaio ( ST Bologna)
