[catanha]

Now (with no bias)

Buffon
Zanetti Ayala Nesta Heinze
Ronaldo Deco Ronaldinho Vicente
Adriano Shevchenko

unlucky: Lampard, Carvalho, Riquelme and Mascherano.

90's team

Chilavert
Bergomi Kohler Matthaus Maldini
Donadoni Giannini Gullit
Baggio
Batistuta Romario

unlucky: Albertini, Boban, Stoichkov and Zidane.

 

[Fabio]

That's a good line up there Catanha but would you really put Deco in the starting XI?

Fabio

 

[snake]

Wow, i find it hard to see why Ronaldo of the 90's or even of the 00's was left out of your squad. Donadoni, Giannini all deserve it more then Zidane?

Hmm, and i know total football was good and all but ill always prefer gullit up front for behind the strikers.

 

[primo-inter]

The current best XI in the world based on quality at the moment...

::::::::::::::::::Adriano:::::::::::::::::::::
Ronaldinho:::::Riquelme:::::C.Ronaldo
:::::::::Mascherano:::::Pizarro:::::::::
Zambrotta::::Nesta:::::Cordoba:::::J.Zanetti
::::::::::::::::::::::Buffon::::::::::::::::::::::

I went for the 4-2-3-1 formation here. It's a favourite of mine. A solid defence with two holding midfielders who can also attack, then there are 3 attacking midfielders who can also get back and defend while at the same time offering great creativity. Then there's Adrianao up front doing what he does best.

Here is my favourite 11 in the world...

::::::::::::::::::Adriano:::::::::::::::::::::
Messi:::::Riquelme:::::Ronaldinho
:::::::::Cambiasso:::::Pizarro:::::::::
Heinze::::Nesta:::::Cordoba:::::J.Zanetti
::::::::::::::::::::::Buffon::::::::::::::::::::::

[Ziyad]

My football knowledge of the 90s is extremely limited though.

So not much has changed...

I think any team cant exclude Adriano and ROnaldinhio...

Also in the back i dont know if there is anyone else that shares this with me but i dont think Nesta is where he used to be..

 

[catanha]

Primo, great to have you back mate!!

Fabio, IMO Deco is the best player in the world because he contributes everywhere. I admit, I was disappointed with him @ Euro and thought he would fail @ Euro, but boy has his game lifted. He is Barcelona's backbone.

helal, Giannini deserves to be there more than any other player. Even for a Romanista, he is a legend to me. Zidane's great form went into the 00's, so thinking of just 90's, Donadoni and co are better.

 

[minterke]

Wow, i find it hard to see why Ronaldo of the 90's or even of the 00's was left out of your squad. Donadoni, Giannini all deserve it more then Zidane?

Hmm, and i know total football was good and all but ill always prefer gullit up front for behind the strikers.

In the 90s I would say players like Batitstuta, Baggio, Romario were better than Ronnie. And in the 00s ever heard of Adriano,Shevchenko,Henry,Makaay?



EDIT: Current Best XI (anyone who disagrees with this has no knowledge in football and/or is an idiot)


Carrol

Pancaro--Montero--Brown--Wome

Amauri--Ambrosini--Dacourt--C.RONALDO :dielaugh: :dielaugh:

Inzaghi---Del Piero

 

[catanha]

Why the fark is a good player like Ambrosini in there? I can understand C.Ronaldo because some people hate him, but what is there to dislike about Ambrosini? He is a champion.

Catanha, this is an Inter forum, y'know. And we all know who Ambro$hitni plays for.

yeh, but if you're going to put Milan players in there why choose a great player like Ambrosini? Players like Gattuso, Seedorf and Costacurta would have been more appropriate. Ambrosini deserves more respect.

As long as they're Milan players, I hate them all. Admittedly, I hate some more than the others but what matters is that I hate them all. Be it a legend like Paolo Maldini, f@ggot like Pirlo, traitor like Christian Vieri or newcomers like Vogel. :yuck:

I'm sorry, but that's just ridiculous. That is far too excessive, and in fact I'd go as far as saying that you're trying TOO hard to act like you hate Milan.

I hate the club, but the players are professionals, they don't deserve to be hated just because of the colours of the shirt they wear. Admittedly I hate a few Milan players like Stam, but that's not related to the fact he plays for Milan. I'm prepared to say that players like Paolo Maldini and Kaka are role models for me, for their behaviour both on and off the pitch.

Well that just means I hate Milan more than you and there's surely nothing wrong with that. What I find ridiculous is that you're accusing me of acting like I hate Milan. C'mon Primo. It's like, hypothetically, I'm accusing you of liking Inter too much.

I hate them as Milan players, not as human-beings, perhaps this statement would help to fix the misunderstanding between us.
