Foreign Select 11 v England

Okay then, I'll go first unless someone beats me to the punch while I am typing. I'm playing a 3-4-1-2 formation and expecting to win the game by scoring a ton of goals, and because the standard of overseas full-backs in England is nothing special. (4-4-2 I'd have plumped for current Chelsea RB Jose Bosingwa and former Liverpool LB Stig-Inge Bjornebye)

GK Peter Schmeichel
CB Jaap Stam
CB Marcel Desailly
CB Lucas Radebe
RM Andrei Kanchelskis
CM Patrick Vieira
CM Osvaldo Ardiles
LM Cristiano Ronaldo
HOLE Gianfranco Zola
ST Eric Cantona
ST Thierry Henry

Bench: Petr Cech, Dennis Bergkamp, Tony Yeboah, Henrik Larsson, Ruud Gullit, Robert Pires, Jan Molby

A few explanations: I detest Ruud van Nistelrooy and would never pick him in any team I was asked to select (EVER). Lucas Radebe is the best defender I have ever seen in the flesh and Andrei Kanchelskis the quickest winger. Guessing the rest of the selection wouldn't be quite as 'controversial'.

I'll play the same formation as Andy's team. I reckon my side would thrash his easy.

GK Van Heusden
CB Mendy
CB Sako
CB Salman

CM Chalqui
CM Meirelles
LM Sow
HOLE Simb
ST Jack
ST Sissoko

P.S. I don't know who won the daw, but expect no news is bad news. It's a shame because that perfume would have suited you! Still, all money went to a good cause. Maybe rivirealou can give us a report of how the kids' party went.

There we are taking on board that these days you can't get close enough to see the players' numbers and Charlie Boy let's it be known that he's sneaked into the showers!
