The worlds about to end...

[LAF]

...and the only way to save it is by having a football match against Satans 11. Who would you pick for a La Liga 11 (plus 7 subs) to save us and why?

Example:

SS: Messi - Big game player who will do anything for the win.

[lionel]

Goalkeeper:
Casillas - "San Iker". the best goalkeeper in la liga.
Defenders:
Puyol - the wall. we need spirit and passion in our team if we want to beat the satans!
Ramos - the defender that only messi could pass through.
Abidal - from the little I saw of him, he's the perfect LB.
Dani Alves - the real satan.
Midfielders:
Messi.
Ronaldinho - the most entertaining player ever. he can do anything when he's fit.
Riquelme - just give him the ball, and he'll make the best out of it.
Xavi - the engineer. the most accurate player in the world. his passes always get to the target.
Albelda - a dirty worker who will balance our whole team.
Strikers:
Eto'o - great passion. blinding speed. strikes from hell.

Subs:
Abbondanzieri
Garray
drenthe
zambrotta
Diarra(not in the XI because it would be too many madridistas)
deco
villa

well tbh I know Dinho is a great player but I just prefered Vicente...while i know that Vicente is injured quite often I know that he is a class player...and I just decided to put him in he is one my fav players in the Spanish league and from Valencia. Also didn't want too many barca players (5 is enough)

going for something different is good. not having messi there, is not good.

I think it could be better and still different... but its decent.

haha, fair enough...

if vicente is one of your favourites, then you should put him there...

[Sven]

It doesn't need Messi , it's got David Silva.

It's good a goal scorer/poacher in Kerzhakov, with Zigic in case if things go wrong I need to go more direct, Kameni in goal is something different, Torres very versitille incase one of the devs messy one of my guys up, I could rely on him throughout game to play any where accross the back 4,

Puyol and Ramos , save bet to do well , Ramos would deffently go all out to get a winner so be my cpt as well.

Alves up more attacking so doesn'thave to rely on defending, Silva is fantastic so more threat on wing with Alves, Ronaldinho to run the show in middle, no more wasting energy on the wing, getting hacked can player killer balls in a free role.

I'm not a big fan of Simao tbh, he is great but I prefer more flashy players like Vicente and Quaresma (not in La Liga but you get the point right?)

Pepe was just awsome for Porto, couldnt leave him out and I also think Canna will get better, the guy was considered the CB in the world not too long ago.

[lionel]

cannavaro, pepe, henry etc.. had shown nothing (good) yet in la liga so I think we shouldn't include them in la liga XI. but maybe the thread writer wanted us to rate the players generally then it would be fine.

then why did I put abidal there?
I've seen abidal play in la liga and he had the best lb performance by a la liga player, so he deserves it.
