Pat Mustard's write up:
Exceptionally boring modern 4-3-3 tactic with an equally boring write-up. Most notable point is that this is one of my favourite backlines that I've assembled in drafts. No Kaiser, Baresi or ultra-attacking FB that put the onus on you to build around and maximise, just a collection of terrific defenders who are all superb in possession as well as being brilliant defensively. I picked Dunga ahead of draft favourites like Tito Goncalves and more obvious fits like Deschamps, as he's impressed me massively when I've happened to watch him in recent years, and I wanted to play him in what I think is his natural role in the modern game as a holding midfielder with metronomic passing. More than happy with my midfield in general, with Neeskens providing the line-breaking x factor ahead of the control of Dunga/Modric. Attacking line isn't particularly eye-catching in an all-time context, but collectively it packs a considerable punch in terms of goal threat and creativity, with Villa's tireless and intelligent off-the-ball movement serving as a vital foil to Neymar and Robben's individualistic tendencies.

BEST OF ECSTATIC - I picked most of the players in the past - A best of is always the beginning of the end...
>>>>>>> Power, Pace: players good on the ball but don't like to overthink === no time to lose with titatakitia football
>>>>>>> Black Panther matters but left, central or right operations zone really don't matter, brilliant with both foot
>>>>>>> Kaká version 2005 against Liverpool (Champions League Finak) Video below him supporting Crespo/sCHEVA
>>>>>>> Sammer the coach on the pitch
Advanced complete striker - Schevchenko - Ballon d'Or 2004
Free Forward - Eusebio - Ballon d'Or 1965 - Black Panther matters
Best equivalent of the Brazilian Ronaldo in terms of style of play
Adavanced Fantasista - Kaká - Ballon d'Or 2007
"For two, maybe three seasons he was the best player in the world, there was nothing he couldn’t do." Ronaldinho
"I remember how badly we took it as a team when Kaká left Milan. For two or three years he was the best player in the world. There was a point when teams just had no idea how to stop him." (Andrea Pirlo)
Captain Ballon d'Or 1996 - Sammer - Libero symbol of the philosophy
Matthias Sammer is the charismatic leader in charge of leading the way and inspiring his teammates as he did with Dortmund in its golden era but also with Germany at the Euro 96. He is one of the three defenders to have won the Ballon d'Or because of his global impact on the game and his teammates. Really an hybrid player which makes comparisons with a lot of central defenders meaningless. He started his career as a central midfielder and became an attacking libero showing his fantastic vision when support attacking game. Unfortunately, he retired early due to injuries.
Overath - He will fluidify the game and feed offensive players - to be discussed later
Giant Midfielder - Lerby - Strong and Complete Defensive midfielder with a high stamina - to be discussed later
Iconic Offensive left-back -Roberto Carlos
Offensive right-back - Carlos Alberto
One of the finest right wing-back of all times. All-round full-back with his ball control, dribbling, playmaking ability, brilliant positioning, great tackling and reading of the game. Carlos Alberto could play as sweeper as well.
Alan Hansen - Defensive leader of the Pool machine 3 Times European Cup (1978, 1981, 1984)
Mozer - Aggressive Stopper - many injuries at the wrong moment preventing him to play some world cups
Quality long passing skills
Ladislao Mazurkiewicz - El Arquero Negro
