You could make an argument for a lot of players, and Totti has been excellent this season. SES has been great, Chiellini good. You could make a case for Rodriguez, as well as Borja. Bradley has also been outstanding, You can also argue about the inclusion of Behrami

In the end my XI is just made up of what i think is most functional, and adds a bit of my personal preference

Team Of The Season

Left out some really good players from this team to keep it functional (still pretty top heavy though).

He didn't even hold down the posse for the season.

I couldn't think of many LBs I liked this season, and every time I've seen cissokho play this season he has been amongst Valencia's best players. I rate him highly.

I can understand you guys putting Lich as a RB.

But when you are making your team of the season with 3 CB's and Lich is the RWB/RM ahead of Cuadrado, than that's very very questionable.

Clearly not true, I've seen Cuadrado play SS this season

Except I've seen him play most of his games unlike you who probably watched like what 5

He's been deployed as a RWB in most of his matches. He has been played in different roles though. When Fio switched to 4-3-3 in some games he was played as a RW. But most of his appearances came when he was a RWB in a 3-5-2.

How do you know how many times I've seen Fiorentina play? The number is probably in the 8-10 region. And I've seen him play full back, winger, SS. If you were to make a point about how Licht is not a RB but a RWB then using Cuadrado is clearly not the best example.

Just a quick question: Why's Dante the worst transfer?

I said when posters are making their team of the season and having 4 defenders. I can understand putting Lich ahead of Cuadrado as a RB. But when you're making your team of the season and you put 3 CB's and your RWB/RM is Lich and not Cuadrado than that's questionable.

That's just the early morning brain deciding to switch off upon seeing too much text stuffed together. 4.7 mil? Bargain of the season, bro.
