Before the inevitable  ;D, I would like to say that Adz has a wonderful team but his midfield gets overrun my mine.

There is no defensive midfielder. Falcao was a more of deep playmaker and Coluna a box-to-box midfielder. Then you consider that the third midfielder is Cruyff (a forward). Maradona and Zico run circles around that midfield. Rijkaard protects the back-line and Neeskens can play the box to box role for my team.

Adz in the first game

Second game is very tight, but just went LMM. Ultimately dont think either striker (both great, Fowler my all time hero) would be great as a lone striker but I think LMM covers it better with two support strikers rather than wingers.
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.

Me midfield would run this show. DeRossi in the dm, pirlo spraying the sexy balls around, davids the engine in the middle doing his pitbull routine. dinny and dani pushing up for the width, they'll get up and down all day.

Adz and LM (just about, calling them 'dinny and dani' almost put me off).

Went for Adz and Lawnmo. Happy to have made it to the semis. Think Lawnmo deserves the final more than I do given my secret santa was better than his.
