Why would you not have Orthodox wingers who could cross if you wanted to build around Crouch?

Much like your thread, the side is an equally failed attempt I am afraid
 
Crouch—Ameobi
Maradona—Di Stéfano—Adam—Cruyff
Marcelo—Passarella—Koeman—Beckenbauer
Buffon​
 
Crouch and Ameobi playing for PSG

...........................................Crouch......Ameobi.......
....Laurent Robert..........Adam......Stephane Dalmat....Ali Bernarbia
Maxwell.......................Ricardo Gomes...... Mario Yepes............ Ceara
...................................................... Revault
 
..............Crouch......Ameobi..........
Giggs....Adam........Baraja....Michel
Abidal...T.Silva.....Edmiilson....G.Neville
......................Martyn......................

Two classic wingers. B2B. Turns into a 3232 in possession to have more bodies in midfield.
 
When you build a team around certain player, it means this player is worth to be built around.

I like the set-up around Adam here. Allows him to be the main DLP and to spray it long, both with the legs around him and good targets to hit out wide and up top. And a midfield that would be effective at picking up the second balls after he's launched it 50 yards.

Thanks :) I thought I would try a serious attempt for the joke thread.
