Forgive me if this is in the wrong place (although methinks it makes sense here, but there's so many rules I'm scared
). Who would you have in your UEFA team of the year? Last year's team, for reference:
Iker Casillas
Daniel Alves John Terry Carles Puyol Patrice Evra
Cristiano Ronaldo Xavi Hernández Kaká Andrés Iniesta
Lionel Messi Zlatan Ibrahimović
Managed by Pep.
Here's my 2cents for this year's squad:
Reina
Maicon Pique Lucio Evra
Robben Xavi Sneijder Ronaldo
Rooney Messi
Managed by Mourinho
Just missing, in my eyes: Higuain, Schweinsteiger, Fabregas (if he wasn't hurt), Lahm, Gourcuff, Lampard and Drogba. Nando would have been a shoo-in if he hadn't been hurt most of the season
That would make 3 from the Premier League, 4 from La Liga, 3 from Serie A, and 1 from the Bundesliga. It would be tough leaving of someone from Chelski if they won the title, but their effort has definitely been more of a team effort, whereas Rooney carried the Mancs for some stretches. I'm obviously biased in picking Reina, but I haven't seen a goalie mean as much to his team this year as Pep did. We would have been mid-table if it wasn't for King Pepe.
