Can anyone knock up a formation for me please? Think it had to be a diamond but all quite central like Milan 05. Full backs pushing on a little.

Probably should be Inter colours if possible.

Pfaff

Bergomi.   Cannavaro.    Stam.    Brehme

D Baggio
Veron.   Matthaus
Rui Costa

Batistuta.   Klinsmann

This ok?

I'd say go for it as those ahead of you already have their keeper.

And yes, I've been boring. But I didn't need to worry too much about losing out in players, for once.

That’s alright. I’m sure there’s possibly one of us who’s ever heard of Orlando.

I was sure you were picking Costacurta, so didn't consider I'd be nicking your man!

Anyway, fantastic draft. Thanks Samie. Don't think I've ever had as many tabs open on my computer at the same time  :D

I'd already had Vierchorwod and Hierro. At a push I could've maybe moved Panucci to Left Back and put Costacurta at Right Back.  :D

Ahhhhh forgot about Vierchowod. Never prioritise a goalkeeper when a Russian left back will do the job just as well  ;D

Looks like the winner to me, but we shall see!
If he's being asked to head the ball too frequently - which isn't exactly his specialty - it could affect his ear and cause an infection. Especially if the ball hits him on the ear directly.

The next round is the Quarter Finals with Betty coming into play.  We will have 7 teams so that means one spot is left for the "Lucky Loser". This will be someone who lost their match in the first round in the narrowest margin.  :wave
