[Don Sweey]

It's tough but I'm going for Phatmann's solidity over the expressive nature of Minof's midfield. Close - and having Seedorf as a holding midfielder really didn't help.

[Rambo]

This should be a good match but I am going for Minof

[Nedy]

I go for a draw here. Will vote later.

[Highway Penguin]

Minof, I think you found the formation you need, but I'd put Raul and Deco on the outside with Riquelme in the middle.

Draw.

[Hunter]

Different formations but I think both are equally strong in their own rights which is why I can only see a draw.

[Barry]

Seedorf is out of place, apart from that it's close. Phat edges it for me.

[Billy Minof]

I voted for myself after I seen Phats voted for himself. ;)

Good luck Phats...

[Top Gun]

I would go for Minofs team,

His midfield is pure class and it would just overun Phats midfield. The rest is quite even but Minofs midfield just edges it for him.
