I'd have Cavani amongst the top 12 certainly.

And the gulf in class between the top and the bottom?

Are Wigan, Wolves etc that decent?

Real Madrid
Manager - SuperPav

--------------------------------------------- Cesar ----------------------------------------
D. Alves ------------------- Carvalho ------------------------ Lucio ------------------ Zanetti
------------------------- Mascherano ----------------------- Alonso -------------------------
Ronaldo ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ J. Mata
---------------------------------------- Villa ------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------Torres -----------------------------------------

Subs:
Carlo Cudicini, Per Mertesacker, Andre Santos, Aaron Ramsey, Lucho Gonzalez, Santi Cazorla, Thierry Henry

Juventus
Manager - Cherriesfan

------------------Buffon--------------------
Srna---Chiellini-------Bonnuci---Cacres
-----------Pirlo-----------Marchisio---------
Wallcott--------Ganso-----------Elia
-------------------Cavani-------------

Subs:
Storai, Grosso, Barzagli, Arteta,Gervinho,Matri, Del Piero.

Buffon = Ceasar
Alves > Srna
Chilini+ Bonnuci > carvalo +Lucio
Cacres > zanetti
Alsono+maseranho = Pirlo+ marchsici
CR7 > walcott
mata > elia
Villa> ganso
cavani > torres

pretty even IMO

also pirlo has the second most assits in serie A

Top 12 strikers in Europe for me atm:

Messi
Ronaldo
Rooney
RVP
Gomez
Cavani
Benzema
Higuain
Ibrahimovic
Aguero
Falcao
Huntelaar

IMO

Matri No
Cavani No

Serie A can't be used as a basis to judge a decent side. It's a farce some weeks, not great viewing. My rugby side is unbeaten all season and has scored over 1,000 points. I have scored 14 tries..

by that logic nor can la liga , as real and barce just destroy everyone,meaning that all la liga teams are useless

My Top 12 Strikers (Just now ie this season).

In no particular order:

Messi
Ronaldo
Benzema
Rooney
Van Persie
Cavani
Falcao
Huntelaar
Gomez
Aguero
Ibihimivic
David Villa should go here but because of the injury he won't. There's someone I've forgotten.

Alsono+maseranho = Pirlo+ marchsici

==

That's just not the case.

Heskey?

Nah, Matt Tubbs.

Llorente maybe?

TSC wrote: Nah, Matt Tubbs.

Llorente maybe?

I certainly rate Bale and Modric who have played in big games and succeeded i.e CL and have been consistently good in their domestics

Modric is a consistently quality player.

still my point is serie A> la liga
more competeive
more entertaining

I haven't seen Serie A for a while so not going to comment on that

Never seen it to be entertaining up until the Baggio, Del Piero, Batistuta, Ronaldo era.

I missed those days...football italia on channel 4

will do mine after a good lunch

Cherries, can you update the table + top scorers?

I need the following to predict on the cup:

Cherries
FootballCrazy
TSC
SuperPav
Gav

and the following to predict on the league:

Brahma Bull
Hero
Fluxy
Fernando
Kamran
Cherries
FootballCrazy
TSC
SuperPav

#justsaying

What cup? I never entered a cup.

Blimey, I've missed a lot this morning.

For the record, Napoli lost to us so they must be shocking!

I think Lavezzi is a better player than Cavani tbh. He was the real threat for Napoli imo.

I think the main reason behind the differences of opinion on here is down to what football people watch. I watch the PL and La Liga but see very little of the Bundesliga or Serie A. Hence, I can rate PL and La Liga players well against each other but find it harder to rate the Hummel's, Hamsik's etc of the world since I don't see enough of them. The reverse may be true of those who favour watching German and Italian football over Spanish or English.

As for the German defenders, assuming the old guard of Mertesacker and Friedrich will not start (or even go), it will be interesting to see how they do against the best in Europe.

One thing I will say is that Gomez is very underrated on here. He is a top goalscorer.

I am looking forward to the Euros. Happy that Capello has gone. I think it is a plus for England, not a minus. OK, planning down the swanny but it wasn't looking great anyway. Now we have little to lose so seat of the pants stuff. Go for it rather than being so timid like at the WC.

I'm finding it tricky who to target as replacements for my CB's.

Are there any options outside of...

Terry
Vidic
or Pique

that wouldn't be considered a weakness for Madrid standard?

I wouldn't even consider Terry by a mile.

Best central defenders for me are...

Kompany
Chiellini
Vidic
Hummels
Silva
Pique

Please note the comments re predictions bonuses going forward

Thought I could sneak a draw but that Arsenal side have improved so fair play to them.

Looking for changes to my team now

My City side have really slipped away.. two draws and a loss in the last 3 games.

Thought I had enough to hold Barca at home.. the extra goal has killed me though.

Up for deals, all players for sale.

Struggling to sort my captain this week

Aguero vs Sunderland or Blackburn vs Rooney?

Aguero, expect City to be after blood this weekend after last weeks result.

What you both after player wise?

Hero - Good point..Cheers

Full backs and an out and out DM.

Apparantely Aguero will miss the Sunderland game due to a 'stupid' injury.

Rooney as capt then

A 'stupid' injury?

So Balotelli clattered him in training then?

There are so many funny rumours such as...

- Realised that despite being his son in law, Maradona loves Messi more. His moral compass is now hurting.

- Stefan Savic tackled him in training, he collapsed in embarrassment, and knocked himself unconscious

- he tried to gate crash Uniteds press conference only to find fergies hairdryer in the way

- The ball from Charlie Adam's penalty came back down to earth and hit him in the face

- Wore all of Giggs' medals and sheer weight broke his ribs

The ball from Charlie Adam's penalty came back down to earth and hit him in the face

I'm on my iPad over the next few days so going near that league table is impossible, but I have tallied it up again... (cherrys job really!)

1. Real Madrid, w4 d2 gd+8 pts 14
2. Barca, w4 d1 l1 gd+7 pts 13
3. Utd, w4 d1 l1 gd +3 pts 13
4. Bayern, w3 d3 gd +6 pts 12
5. Arsenal, w3 d2 l1 gd +5 pts 11
6. Spurs, w2 d2 l2 gd -1 pts 8
7. Chelsea, w2 d1 l3 gd -1 pts 7
8. City, w2 d1 l3 gd -2 pts 7
9. Inter, w1 d1 l4 gd -5 pts 4
10. Liverpool, w1 d1 l4 gd -6 pts 4
11. AC Milan, w1 d1 l4 gd -8 pts 4
12. Juve, d2 l4 gd -7 pts 2

Cheers Hero.

Stiliyan Petrov diagnosed with leukaemia

Thoughts and prayers are with him and family and hope he makes a full recovery


Have a good weekend all

Cherries, can you update the table please?

Morning lads.

Hero will be running the match page this week. I'm off to Vegas on Wednesday

Morning all

Up for deals

Went to the barbers and asked for a Liverpool FC haircut. Mess at the back, nothing on the sides and nothing up front. He charged me £130 million.

Has anyone seen how many assists Ozil has this season in RL?

Ozil 25 assists in 42 games
Silva 18 assists in 43 games

How many goals have they both scored this season?

Silva certainly wins on that one, 8 to 3.

Muller has 19 assists in 42 games as well

I have the two top guys for assists in the main leagues
Oh and Gomez up front with his 37 goals in 41 games this season on the end of them

Gomez wishes o join Milan.

I'm setting up a Euro 2012 Fantasy League, anyone want to participate? You select your own 23 man squad for your randomly assigned country, pick your own starting XI, tactics and subs, everyone votes on the games, and a Euro 2012 winner is crowned. Very similar setup to the Euro Division taking place but no transfers (obviously) between countries.

For those unsure about it taking up time, it's a one off tournament and you'll have 3 group games to do. If you do alright, a 4th game (Quarter Final) or 6 games (Semi final and final/3rd place playoff). So not exactly too much work.

Wish to go back and alter votes based on that
