World XI


GG

Recommended Posts

Slight twist on a familiar concept, pick your best side containing one player from each of FIFA's top ranked 11 national sides.

 

My attempt:

 

                                            I. Akinfeev (Russia)

 

      P. Lahm (Germany) T. Silva (Brazil) R. Carvalho (Portugal) L. Doyley (England)

 

              L. Modric (Croatia) X. Alonso (Spain) C. Eriksen (Denmark)

 

      L. Messi (Argentina) E. Cavani (Uruguay)  R. Van Persie (Netherlands)

 

the real GG team

How about if you had to make a World XI which is balanced by continental federation roughly proportionately to World Cup berth?

 

So roughly, 4 Europeans, 2 South Americans, 2 Asians, 2 Africans, and 1 North American. Just to make it more interesting, you're not allowed to use 2 players from the same country.

 

This was the best I could come up with

 

                              Howard(CONCAF)

 

Lahm(UEFA) Thiago Silva(CONEMBOL) Vidic(UEFA) Nagatomo(AFC)

 

                Yaya Toure (CAF) Xavi(UEFA) JS Park(AFC)

 

              Ronaldo(UEFA) Ba(CAF) Messi(CONEMBOL)

 

We're not changing the rules just so you can pick a Korean!
