Some players always seem to be in these lists by default. Now watch Gerrard and Lampard appear on the midfielders list and Torres on the strikers list.
Hmm maybe if it is calender year, I'd still probably have him.Kompany has been so poor this season that he doesn't deserve to be chosen. Not if this is chosen by calendar year. Not seen a single good performance from him. Evident by them keeping 4 clean sheets in 19 games despite often playing with 5 at the back and/or 2 defensive midfielders much of the time.
Shortlisted sure but he shouldn't make the final cut.
Casillas
Ivanovic - Thiago Silva - Hummels - Marcelo
He's not had the best start to the season but it's laughable to suggest he shouldn't be chosen. He was brilliant for the second half of last season, and it's bizarre you criticise his inclusion over the likes of Evra and Luiz, much less deserving to be there.Kompany has been so poor this season that he doesn't deserve to be chosen.

Rio alongside Kompany was probably best defender in Premiership last yearTerry? Rio? Luiz?
I was talking about the pick, not the shortlist. Luiz and Evra had already been covered. No point in me reiterating what others are saying about Bale etc. I mentioned it because people felt he deserved to be there. I can't see it. He's been poor in every CL game. Not good in the league. I don't know how he's been doing for Belgium. Rio has been better this season. Pepe and Ramos have had a better calendar year as far as I've seen. Sure he's better than half the people on the list but he's not been the best or 2nd best defender this calendar year.He's not had the best start to the season but it's laughable to suggest he shouldn't be chosen.

This; Chiellini close, nothing in it really, but the fullbacks and goalie are set in stone IMOCasillas, Alba, Hummels, Kompany, Lahm
Depends on the formation, will it be a traditional 4-4-2 or modified 4-3-3, or perhaps only three defenders so they can fit more attackers in the XI?So the full list is out and in the OP.
Gerrard is in the midfielders
I feel sorry for Falcao and RVP who surely deserve to be in it but will most likely miss out due to Messi and Ronaldo.
