Hello and welcome to our first match-up in the Liquid Football World Football Draft.

To start with, each team will be posted, but before making your choice, you have a chance to direct questions to each participant about any aspect of their team, and they will have the chance to answer them.

Also, both participants have the chance to convince people of their side in this thread by explaining what makes it so good etc. Please note that you are allowed to persuade people on this thread of your side's brilliance, but you are NOT allowed to try swaying people's votes via PM or any other facility not on this thread!

When I feel the discussion should be drawn to a close, I will post telling people they are now allowed to cast their votes. A poll however will not be made, and instead, you need to post your choice, and give reasons to back up your choice, to ensure fairness.

Voting
- Players must be judged solely on their performance from 1992 onwards!
- You are voting for which team you believe is best, NOT which team would win a one-off game. VOTE FOR THE BEST TEAM.
- Please bear in mind that football matches are not won on paper, so when voting, many other factors should be considered.

---------------Casillas----------------------

Seriously, Frank Lampard is an absolute legend of the game. He needs to be recognised in some way eg. Frank Lampard OBE, Sir Frank Lampard or some kind of lifetime achievement award.

Why is Riquelme playing on the left wing Phil? Or is he a false-winger type who can cut in and dictate play?

Winner.

Oops sorry, didn't bother to read through the instructions. Phil, how do you plan to protect the back 4 with such an attack-minded midfeild?

I vote for ANT'S TEAM.

Solid gk, solid defence with 2 incredibly fit full backs who enjoy getting forward. With Redondo and Simeone there is 2 incredibly strong DM's who any team would struggle to break down, and then you have Albertini who will create all day, providing great chances for Hagi and the two incredible forwards, Ronaldo and Batistuta, two of the all time greats. Width is provided by the full backs, but they won't be left exposed as the two DM's can cover for them when they push forward. Solid in the middle, yet creative. And you just know chances will be converted...

Ant's team wins this comfortably for me, unless Phil explains his arse off.

Nope, it doesn't really lack width at all because I have Cafu and Lahm as full backs!! with 3 midfielders constantly occupying the midfield too, it will be the case that the DM's will push across when wingers have the ball, and will press the sides constantly.

This is not a one-off match.

Teams are being judged on their greatness, so don't imagine these two facing each other.

So you think Robben would destroy Lahm, despite Lahm bossing thrice the player in Messi only a few weeks ago...

If we're gonna get into something like that, my entire midfield would rape his, he has no battlers in the middle and we'd walk past them. Then Ronaldo and Batigol would destroy Phil's defence, with balls being fed behind the defenders by the majestic Hagi, and the quickest, most explosive striker ever in Ronaldo running onto them, and any crosses in would be laid off or nodded in by the aerial maestro that was Batigol...

Is this really fair when Ant atm is getting everybody on board? Ant is explaining his team etc and people are going ok yeah i vote Ant. So when Phil gets a chance to explain his team people have already picked Ant?
