Roberto Carlos

I don't think everyone would have the same team if it was judged on talent, not at all. People see different talents in different players, and rate some players more than others. Why do you think there's all these Defoe vs. Drogba, Defoe vs. Baros, Defoe vs. The Entire Human Race topics floating around? People judge players differently.

GK: Schmeichel

LB: Maldini
CB: R. Ferdinand
CB: Cafu
RB: Roberto Carlos

RMF: Best
CMF: Zidane/Maradona/Ronaldinho/Keane :-)
OMF: Cantona
LMF: Giggs

CF: Thierry Henry
CF: Van Basten

I'm not particularly knowledgeable about current football, let alone players from the past, so I'm not exactly in a position to pick the best XI players of all time. Instead I just chose XI of my favourite players who I think would make a good team. It has to be subjective or personalised in some way anyway - if it was based purely on talent then everyone would have the same team.

And besides, although I don't follow his every game, from what I've seen of him recently he can't seem to do anything wrong. You could probably argue that he should be scoring more goals than he is, but since Euro 2004 he's developed into such a team player that he's assisting enough for it not to matter as much.

I may try and think of another team later.
