Hello and welcome to our fourth match-up in the Liquid Football World Football Draft. You know the drill by now, so let's crack on. 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. Teams are judged on an individual basis. 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.
?
Which team is best? Discussion may begin. |

Question to Gunnerboy: where is your defence? |

GB's defence isn't that bad, and you're seriously overrating your defence El. You don't have the best defence in this game, Kem's defence is a mile better. Question to Elcule - Aren't you scared that any team with a bit of drive and creativity would just steamroll through your midfield? You have two widemen, and a glaring gap in the middle, as Emerson and Ince will provide nothing going forward and weren't the best DM's to ever grace the game... |

Yeah, but Kem is going out in the group stage by the looks of things Am I scared that my midfield will be overwhelmed? No. Everyone seriously underrates both Emerson and Ince imo, because until recently no-one really thought anything of the DM role unless it was Makelele or Deschamps playing in it. Both are superb ball winners; sure Emerson did add much going forward, but he rarely gave it away; I urge you to watch some of Ince's displays in Euro 96 and tell me he offered nothing going forward, his passing range was superb and he had one hell of a shot on him. Sure, they weren't the best two DM's, but they are very good. And when I said GB's defence isn't that bad, he might get away with it, but surely not when he has a defensive midfield consisting of Xavi Hernandez protecting it...

They say the best form of defence is attack, and with Xavi and Zidane in the middle, and majestic players like Totti and Bergkamp upfront, this theory would hold up. Even Denilson and Ljungberg were majestic going forward. Scholl was not a right wing btw, or even a right mid... |

Scholl was an attacking mid in the main, but was employed on the right quite a bit for both Bayern and Germany; I'm not looking for him to give too much width, more to cut in in a more Pires-esque manner. |

elcule you team doesnt have a player who can put their foot on the ball and orchestrate attacks, dont you think your team lacks creativity and if so how would you counteract this? (ince isnt a creative midfeilder/playmaker in the mould of xavi etc) GB your midfield lacks a defensive minded CM, you have no ball winners to protect your defence. how would you organise zidane and xavi to allow them to be creative whilst not leaving your back line vulnerable? |

I'm basically playing on the counter; my creativity is coming from the wings, relying on the pace of Overmars and Weah, and the aerial and finishing prowess of Crespo. My main creator is Scholl. |
