Yossi has a better more balanced team, although id like to see more depth in his formation instead of a flat line for midfield and defense....letter's team is week in the back imo although his wing midfielders are good.

[Highway Penguin]

Not sure on who to go for on this. Letter I like this formation. :) Yossi, you've got a very flat formation. Maybe pushing Vicente around along with your defense would make it look neater/more effective.

Either way, I'll go with Yossi, just because of his depth in the bench and a few key players.

[Teekay]

Yossi takes it, but not easily as his midfield is pretty messed up. A flat formation like that isn't too hard to breake.

yossi , im happy , u listened to my advice , now u have a better more powerful and balanced team , i like ur 442 formation too

[Yossi]

I think the good ol' 4-4-2 is probably the best formation around, but it's the voters who win the matches so I'll probably tinker with it a little before the next match. How about:

---------------van der Sar----------------
------------------------------------------
----Sergio----King----Upson----Lizarazu---
----Ramos--------------------------------
------------------------------------------
-----------Mendieta---Perrotta------------
------------------------------------------
-------------Baraja---Vicente-------------
------------------------------------------
-------------Forlan----Yakubu------------
------------------------------------------

Or:

---------------van der Sar----------------
------------------------------------------
----Sergio----King----Upson----Lizarazu---
----Ramos--------------------------------
------------------------------------------
------------------Perrotta----------------
-----------------------------------------
-----Mendieta-----Baraja-----Vicente-----
------------------------------------------
-------------Forlan----Yakubu------------
------------------------------------------

[Highway Penguin]

Sorry, I just hate how you have Sergio Ramos. I keep wanting to ask you to make him on one line! :D Just a little picking. :)

I like the latter of the two. :)

[Dan]

2 great teams but yossi for me much better midfeild and defence

[Scarface]

Yossi takes it. I think the team your playing is the best possible 11, but think you should just move Vicente and Mendieta onto a line below to show they are attacking, rather than being part of a flat midfield 4.

.............................. ..........van der Sar........................... ......

............Ramos............. .King............Upson........ ...Lizarazu......


.............................. ....Baraja.........Perrotta... .........................
.............Mendieta......... .............................. .......Vicente.........

.............................. .......Forlan....Yakubu....... ........................


Very good looking team, and can only be good news for you that van der Sar has signed for Man Utd ;)

[Yossi]

I'll probably go with this one next time then. I've now shortened Sergio Ramos to just 'Ramos' at HP's request because I couldn't fit it on one line without making it look like:

---------------van der Sar----------------
------------------------------------------
--Sergio Ramos---King---Upson---Lizarazu-
------------------------------------------

and it looks like King is in the centre, with Ramos on the right side and Upson and Lizarazu on the left and therefore making the defence look lop-sided. Anyway, next game I will probably settle for this formation:

---------------van der Sar----------------
------------------------------------------
----Ramos----King----Upson----Lizarazu---
------------------------------------------
------------------Perrotta----------------
-----------------------------------------
-----Mendieta-----Baraja-----Vicente-----
-----------------------------------------
------------------------------------------
-------------Forlan----Yakubu------------
------------------------------------------

because I also think that this is the best of the two I posted previously. The formation Reyes suggested looks too similar and the voters would probably think that it's the same as before.

Very good looking team, and can only be good news for you that van der Sar has signed for Man Utd ;)
I thought of that myself.:)

And anyone took over my opponent's team as he asked here (http://forum.pesinsight.com/showthread.php?p=356517#post35 6517)? The fact that no-one has replied to this proves my point in the above post, which was also not answered.

[Highway Penguin]

Ok, what do you think Letter's formation will be?

-------------------Robinson--------------------
-----------Heitinga---------O'Shea--------------
-Zebina-------------------------------Evra------
--------------------Appiah----------------------
------------------------------------------------
-----Deisler-----------------------Richardson-----
--------------------Cahill------------------------
------------------------------------------------
------------Pizzaro------------------------------
----------------------Govou---------------------
subs:
van den Borre
Kezman
Hitzpelger
Volz
Iniesta

Do you like this formation better, or what?

[Guillermo]

Its exactly the same :mellow:

[-Deki-]

I would use this as letter's.

-------------------Robinson--------------------
------------Zebina---------O'Shea--------------
--Heitinga-------------------------------Evra---
------------------------------------------------
---------------------Cahill-----------------------
-----Deisler-----------------------Richardson-----
---------------------Iniesta----------------------
------------------------------------------------
------------Pizzaro------------------------------
----------------------Govou---------------------

[Highway Penguin]

Nah, it's different.

I moved the people around, made it easier to look at. I know that can be a problem with some people. They don't like looking at sloppy formations. Atleast that's me. :)

Well, Haribo what do you suggest?

[Guillermo]

Use Penyon's mid but with a flat four mid.

-Zebina-------------------------------Evra------
------------------------------------------------
------------Iniesta---------Cahill---------------
---Deisler---------------------------Richardson--
-------------------------------------------------
------------Pizzaro------------------------------
----------------------Govou---------------------

Something like that?

[Guillermo]

Yes but that's just my opinion.
