Phoenix: Nope you typed Portugal...(what did you drink last night)..
And I think your list is terrible not a Man U player in sight..
it's the weirdest thing .. I typed Portugal with my fingers - obviously ..
Man U plays too many games a season - the players get too tired for my team ... they have to choose champions league or national squad selection .. can't do both ..

dvx_76: Hope there will be a Nott.Forest in the squad - that means they will be back in the premiere.
not necessarily .. being in the premiere isn't a criteria for me ..
I'm choosing players from the championship too - because they will be less tired come end of season .. if the premiership wasn't full of players from other countries, these players would be playing in the top league anyway ..
If you look at the German squad, few of them would be selected to play for the top premiere teams - being fresh is more important, I think.
My self being an AC Milan supporter and of course support the Italian National Team, we still have the same problem. A squad built up on the squad that finished it's league in the 7th place, not to mention the average age group was quite high too. Of curse in England i sympatise for Forest :)

rytcharlie: you'll know all about Lewis McGugan then ..
do you like his potential?
Oh excuse me, but ..... one kick in the nuts or knees and Lewis McGugan is Old News. Very fragile these players are .. at least they could be more safely secured in appropriate clothing, rather like the jousting Knights of Olde....?
So much more fun .... to see them gallavanting over the field in suits of armour.
