    I'm not a fan of Iniesta and Pirlo as the two CMs without a ball winner behind them. Pirlo was good for Milan because he had Gattuso as the holding mid. Iniesta's best talents would be wasted if he was purely a ball winner. I would have dropped Hagi for Senna. Finally, Nedved was versatile but he was much stronger on the left wing. Monaghan wins it for me.

    Monaghan, just. More balanced in midfield. That's what edges it for me.

    The drafters name 5 penalty takers and I put up a penalty shootout poll. First to 5 votes.

    Monaghan needs one more vote to win. Pennywise needs 5 votes as Gabriel's vote doesn't count.

    Tough one, the ball winners in Mons midfield and lack of that in pennys tips it for me, pennys team is by far better man for man and I'm not convinced the ball sack ticklers would get near inesta or Pirlo considering no * ever did in there prime but when mon goes forward he would bypas the pennys midfield and I think that would be too much strain on pennys defence.

    I voted for Pennywise (sorry Mr Monaghan), but now I'm reading the posts and wondering if the votes are restricted:67: I'm a simple man, I see Eusebio and I click. Do believe that Mr Monaghan has more balance and therefore will win, with or without my vote. Cheers.

    Outside opinion is always welcome, mate. But your vote doesn't count in this instance. You're also welcome to join in with the next draft.

    Cheers boys.

    By far the closest tie so well played @Pennywise


    I'd like to take Eusebio please, @Luz1904 's man. I'll replace Keane from my bench if that it allowed, Mint.
