- Squillaci/Da Costa or Distin/Da Costa or Squillaci/Distin?
- Angulo or Castelen?
- What do you think of the XI as an overall? Is it a decent backup side or can it be improved?

- I think to take advantage of Seedorf, Deco and Riquelme, a diamond midfield is better, with either Moutinho or Dacourt in DM. Because, now that you have Nilmar ( :angry: ) you have someone that can run up and down the flanks opposite Pernia.

Are Taddei and Rodriguez good enough for D1
- Taddei, yes. Rodriguez, Scarface used to think so, so yes. He seems a good player.

Is Larsson Still good enough to play D1 football?
- I still think so. I mean look how good he was at Man Utd.


The Viper:

Squillaci/Da Costa or Distin/Da Costa or Squillaci/Distin?
- Squillaci/Distan is a more experienced pairing. Da Costa will be good in time.

Angulo or Castelen?
- I haven't seen Castelen in a while. Angulo is probably more of a goal threat, by Castelen has more pace.

What do you think of the XI as an overall? Is it a decent backup side or can it be improved?
- I like it. Improvements for me would be Maresca instead of Aisatti, and maybe you could improve your left-back. I have to be honest, I don't think I'm aware of Boka. I'm sure he is BOKA! though.

[Keyser Soze]

Is this my strongest formation? Yeah.
Are Taddei and Rodriguez good enough for D1? Taddei - as a squad player
Maxi R - Definately
Is Larsson Still good enough to play D1 football? Yep, but you could find a lot better


- Squillaci/Da Costa or Distin/Da Costa or Squillaci/Distin? Last one.
- Angulo or Castelen? Castelen.
- What do you think of the XI as an overall? Is it a decent backup side or can it be improved? Solid, balanced team but not mind-blowing, but would put up a fight against many.

[Scarface]

Sully:

Is this my strongest formation?
- It looks strong, but a 4-3-2-1 may be even better.

Same personnel in defence, with Moutinho and Lucho in central midfield, Deco, Maxi and Riquelme supporting Ronaldo. Raul and Seedorf give you other good options in midfield. I'm not a big fan of Taddei, and I definitely don't think he warrants a place in your starting XI, considering some of the other options you have.

Are Taddei and Rodriguez good enough for D1
- No question about Maxi Rodriguez - he's top class and can be an asset to any squad. Taddei, as backup he's fine, but not a starter.

Is Larsson Still good enough to play D1 football?
- He should still do a job for you. Very clever player, and as Dragonfly mentioned, you only needed to see what he brought to the table for Man Utd to realise what he still has to offer.

The Viper:

Squillaci/Da Costa or Distin/Da Costa or Squillaci/Distin?
- Tough call, but I would go for Distin/Da Costa.

Angulo or Castelen?
- Really depends on the opposition. Castelen's pace will cause slower full backs a great deal of concern, while Angulo will be more industrious and tighten things up against difficult opposition.

What do you think of the XI as an overall? Is it a decent backup side or can it be improved?

- Very decent indeed. Well balanced, and I don't feel there's no area where you look overly weak. You've done a very good job so far adding some squad depth while purchasing a couple of key players.

Is this my strongest formation? I would say so.

Are Taddei and Rodriguez good enough for D1? Rodriguez is, Taddei is decent but not of the same standard, squad player at best.

Is Larsson Still good enough to play D1 football? Yes.

Viper
- Squillaci/Da Costa or Distin/Da Costa or Squillaci/Distin? Squillaci & Distin

- Angulo or Castelen? Angulo is the better play, but Castelan has more pace, I'd say the latter is a better substitute.

- What do you think of the XI as an overall? Is it a decent backup side or can it be improved? It's good but Mutu and Farfan are two of your better players, I'm unsure why they're in a back up side.
