    Who would you take out for Johan? In a 3-4-3 at least? Not that I agree with that formation mind you...

    He's the only player from the premier league era that i wish we could have signed. Brilliant footballer.
    If you're not sure what to do with the ball, just put it in the net, and we'll talk about the other options later... Bob Paisley.

    Drop out Brazil's Ronaldo, Pele cf and Cryuff in the attacking mid position with Diego.

    I see your point - even though Pele wasn't a CF, he'd be good with support from prolific goal scorers like Ronaldo and Messi on the side.

    With these kind of things everyone struggles to get their favourites in to a team which might actually function, rather than a list of names. If I was really pushed, and you pushed me, i would probably go

    Schmeichael of Buffon in goal (I can just about remember the salad days of Yashin)

    Back Four Cafu Beckenbauer Baresi Maldini

    holding mid Makelele

    offensive mid Messi Cruyff Xavi

    front two Pele Maradona

    I know its not the prerequired formation. Sorry about that. its a pretty good team though.

    on the bench Gerrard, Souness, Van Basten, Iniesta and Gunther Netzer
