Moe's side has the forward line to better anybody elses bar mine imo, hence why his side is rated so highly. I rate Triggers side very highly, but I'm unsure as to how many votes they'll get because of the age of his team in relation to the forum demographic. I think I and many others got it right in going for strikers first, although I'd have loved to have got 4 incredible defenders and see what people thought of my side then. |

Gerrard was a vastly superior player to the players that partnered Vieira during 01-02 and 03-04, and we dominated every single midfield that season. You just don't understand football, that's why you don't rate Gerrard of 98-2002. The orthodox duties of any central midfielder is to win the ball, defend the middle of the park, and pass the ball effectively to the wide areas and strikers. Gerrard could do this very, very effectively. Like I said, he was a poor man's Vieira. Now days Gerrard is a #10, a player who's main job is to create chances, something Gerrard does not do to a world class level, yet you rate him higher now than you ever did. It just underlines your lack of knowledge. More lack of knowledge from you is rating Michael Owen higher than Ian Wright when in fact Michael Owen is just a poor man's Wright. Both players were fantastic runners, however Wright was FAR better at using the channels than Owen, who was at his best splitting the CBs. Wright is more effective off the ball than Owen. INTERNATIONAL FOOTBALL MEANS FVCK ALL IN THIS GAME. As for you poor man's Ant team, your completely wrong, both teams are very close. His strikers are a little better simply because he has Ronaldo. My central midfield is better. He has picked Hagi as his wide midfielder. Good player wide, but he barely ever played there during his romp, and almost never at Galatasaray. So Pires pisses on him. His RB is better going forward, but Lee Dixon is no doubt better defending. He hasn't picked CBs yet, so I doubt he could get better than what I have, and he has no chance of getting a better LB. So actually, I would say I have the best team thus far. You are not even top 7. |

WHY CAN PEOPLE NO UNDERSTAND THAT YOU DO NOT NEED AERIAL PRESENCE UP FRONT. THAT IS WHY ENGLAND HAVE ALWAYS FAILED INTERNATIONALLY. TOO MUCH EMPHASIS ON POWER, NOT NEARLY ENOUGH ON MOVEMENT. |

i know but seriously a wright owen partnership doesnt strike me with fear. wright thrived off bergkamps creativity while owen was most successful with heskey/ a big striker. that is a fact. individually they may be lethal but together imo it will be a big miss btw dont swap gerrard, for some reason i think him and viera would work well together |

Hagi is playing in the centre, and my strikeforce is unparalleled, you must be severely underrating Batistuta if you think Owen or Wright are better players... You also forgot to mention how solid my midfield is, yet maintaining an unbelieveable amount of creativity, and having the greatest ever full back to provide great width... |

Yes, seriously. Cafu was NEVER a great defender. Dixon was easily better defensively. I really have no chance in this game if people are going to show this much bias against me. We should find a third party to vote on the teams. |

You've watched a couple of old Liverpool games under Houllier and now have it in your head that Gerrard was a superb CM. He was very good, at best, and that makes your first pick a poor one. A CM's job is not just to win the ball back and distribute to wide areas, it does help if they have other aspects in their armoury. Gerrard of 99-02 was a lanky powerhouse and nothing more, and putting him next to another lanky powerhouse, albeit a class one, is not really the answer. You're trying to create something that isn't there.
Owen was a better player than Wright in his romp. Ballon D'or for a reason, and an England hero for good reason too. The fact Wright was unable to get onto the England scene speaks volumes, and although not his fault that he couldn't produce on the European stage, it does help in raising a player's stature and testing their true greatness.
LMFAO. Are you making the rules? Every game of competitive football played should be taken into account. Quite simple really.
and Batistuta...
My midfield is absolutely outstanding whilst being perfectly balanced. The problem with your side is, you don't have a truly special player, and I'm talking about a truly special player. I have Ronaldinho, Zizou has Henry, Ant has Ronaldo, GB has Zidane... |
