Yeah, not the most balanced but Hoddle and Rijkaard would have to sit and the back 3 can't cross the half way line!!! Think the front 5 might be able to create and score the odd goal!!!

So many players have been on the books of Marseille at some point, prevented numerous options for me. I was born in 1978 and I'm playing 3-3-1-3. Very attacking with Maradona given a free role because he's Maradona.

1. Rene Higuita

2. Paul Futcher
3. Franco Barrsi
4. Trifon Ivanov

5. Jan Molby
6. Lothar Matthaus
7. Saeed 'Desert Pele' Al-Owairan

8. Diego Maradona

9. Killian M'Bappe
10. Christiano Ronaldo
11. Tony Yeboah

Obviously Futcher restricted me from getting any England or City players but he was first on the teamsheet.

Owairan, great shout (and brilliant for this!). Scorer of the best world cup goal ever!

Ultimately it was that goal what did it and meant Lars Bohinen missed out.

One thing I've noticed with all these teams, including mine, is that they are all pretty narrow. Lots of number 10's but very few wide players. Is that a reflection that wingers are out of fashion or more that there haven't been many top class ones in the last few decades?

Certainly in my lifetime, most of the best ‘wingers’ either end up further infield or became inverted wingers.

Robben & Ribéry stood out for me but they were also inverted of course.

John Barnes maybe. Most of the exciting young wingers usually end up more centrally with age - Giggs for instance.

Marc Overmars was one of the true, successful ‘wingers’ in my lifetime but he was past his best by 26/27 due to injuries.
