No need for coach for this team!!!
The players know exactly what to do to win any match !!!
By the way, where is the Bench ?
No need for a bench. Each of these with-horse is ready to go full-throttle.
What???? Xavi over Zidane??? not possible
Cafu or Maldini over all-rounder player Coach Sergio Ramos. They want him to retire before they recognize him.
I do not know how the selection was done but I am sure Ronaldinho has a place in this first eleven.
The complete sports first 11 is unaguably the best of all time.
Ronaldinho is one of the best of all time but not greater than either Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo at best he should be on the reserves with the likes of Zidane.
