Edgar Allan Pillow Tactics:
Inspired by Grande Inter.
Frantisek Planicka, one of the greatest goalkeepers of his generation, and of all time, in 1999, the IFFHS elected him the best Czech goalkeeper – as well as the sixth best in Europe and the ninth best overall – of the twentieth century.
Bixente Lizarazu is a one man flank and will provide offensive width in addition to his usual defensive solidity. Sinisa Mihajlovic is a versatile player who has played both at left back and as CB/Sweeper. A solid left footed player, he has a no fancy defend only role and cover for Lizarazu. Giuseppe Bergomi & Fabio Cannavaro need no introduction. World class players.
Casemiro is the defensive anchor. Not just on his technique and defensive nous, he's good at starting attacks from the back too. Igor Netto will play the B2B role with his trademark incisive runs and ability to play-make from the deep.
Baggio is the trequartista bring the attack together and he is supported by a classical winger in Donadoni and a lightning fast left forward in Sosa. Vieri a solid physical CF able to stretch play, hold opposition CBs, score himself and create for others.
Enigma_87 Tactics:
Formation: 4-3-3
Style: Team build around Platini, balanced, press in our half, counter attack and move the ball quickly as possible through the lines. Platini pulling the strings and exploiting Gullit/Stoichkov pace on the wings.
Defence:
On goal is Dino Zoff, Italy greatest keeper after Buffon and it's not like there isn't competition for that title. In front of him we have a classic sweeper/stopper combo with Rio playing alongside Godin. Tassotti is in more balanced role whilst Briegel will push up and down the wing complimenting Stoichkov and giving additional option on the flank.
Midfield:
Shielding the defence is on of the best at the job - Desailly who will also mind the opposition best player in Baggio when occupying his zone. Pirri is in B2B role both complimenting Platini and doing most of the dirty work. Platini is in his natural role as main playmaker of the team and linking up midfield and attack, whilst also being a main goalscoring threat to the opposition line.
Attack:
A mouthwatering duo on the flanks in Gullit and Stoichkov will stretch the defence, whilst also being a threat cutting in and finishing chances themselves. Both are also great creativity outlets to each other as Stoichkov crossing would be a very viable route to goal with Spencer and Gullit in the box. Spencer is playing his natural CF role and occupying the opposition CB's.
