Who makes up your starting XI? (Top 40 Euro thread got me thinking.)

I get 12? I'd probably have two goalies then.

Fixed. Thanks for the find, Macho Man.

Damn, I had just settled on Cech and Casillas.

Quite frankly, the formation does not really matter with a squad like this.
Substitutes:
Casillas
Pique
Sergio Ramos
Schweinsteiger
David Silva
Wayne Rooney
Ibrahimovic
I also really wanted to find a roster spot for Pirlo, Lloris, Ribery, Bale, Benzema, Fabregas, Robben, Cole, Aguero, Toure, Busquets, and more.

Cech
Marcelo Puyol Terry Cole
Ozil Xavi Iniesta
Messi Van Persie Ronaldo
I know that's similar to above, but I flip Messi and Ronaldo allowing them to move towards the center with their strong foot.

Yeah, I really only considered the order with my back 4.
That makes sense, but Marcelo is a LWB, so I really do not know how well he could play RB.
Also, Marcelo is only 24. Wow.

Any team without Lahm is a god damn shame
Posted on 6/6/12 at 10:12 pm to hendersonshands
Cech
Lahm Pique/Kompany* Terry(c) Cole
Schweinsteiger Toure
Iniesta Ozil Ronaldo
Messi
*If Pique has his head on straight he's the best in the world IMO but there's been some questions about that this year.
Alonso or Bastian was probably my toughest choice.
Subs:

Which ones can you really argue with as outlandish? Goalkeepers are very hard to rate but Cech was easily the #1 reason we won the CL.
Terry, whether you hate him or not, has been one of the best most consistent defenders for a decade now and is an incredible leader of men.
Cole is pretty widely recognized as the best LB in the world.

What the frick? Is this 2009 again? Am I missing something?
He's in the discussion, maybe. But I've hardly heard anyone say, without doubt, that he's "widely" the best LB in the world. And I know it's a weak position, but come on.

All of this and lol @ people criticizing Chelsea fans without putting up his XI.

We were going good until that.

I'm as big of a Chelsea fan as there is, and you're freaking high if you think Terry belongs in the best 11 in the world. He's probably not in the EPL's best 11.
Cech belongs in the discussion at GK, but you could put 10 names in a hat and pull one out for that position.
Cole deserves mention in the discussion at LB I think.... but Terry?

He might be a reserve for me. Might be.
Still working on my XI.

His pick for me was very homer......but I needed a captain and there is only one Bho's XI captain.
