My team will be playing in a 4-3-3 formation.
The defence is solid, with two outstanding fullbacks who will make short work of any threat from Jayvin's wide forwards and have the engine and ability to overlap with the wide men in attack.
The central midfield unit has three all-rounders who excel at retaining possesion, orchestrating moves, placing the killer pass and contributing to the attack in its final phase.
Still, all three put in a shift defensively as well. Falcao and Schuster mostly through workrate and interceptions, not destructive heavy work. Lerby is the tireless yet technically proficient box-to-box player protecting the back four, keeping tabs on Hoddle and helping build up but with a more conservative stance.
The attack is mouthwatering, with two of the most eye-catching and effective wide players in any era. Either Simonsen or Boniek on a mazy run were electrifying and a terrifying prospect for any defence. For Morena I know you will have to (and should) have a look at the clips posted in his profile. It is worth pointing out they aren't highlights but all sorts of goals, presenting an accurate picture of his capability to lose his markers, dribble his way in tight areas, score headers, long shots, poacher goals, the lot. He was a complete centreforward with a natural killer instinct and always -invariably- the first to any loose ball.
Jayvin has a good side, featuring the best centre back pairing in the draft, but his goalkeeper and fullbacks are weaker, his central midfield will be outfought in recovery effort and outplayed when in possession, and his trio of forwards looks disjointed to me. There's no clear way they will work together as a unit: my fullbacks will own their man and my CBs will sure be solid enough to isolate Krankl who is the only real threat IMO.

4-3-3:
Playing a 4-3-3, my team is built on a rock solid defence with a perfect blend of brains, brawn and elegance. Forster is capable of marking anyone out of the game on his day, and Scirea’s outstanding reading of the game and superb ball control make them the perfect partnership. McGrain and Demyanenko will operate as traditional full-backs in this formation, with a primary focus on defence, though their ability in the final third means when they do get forward, they have a good shot at creating goalscoring opportunities.
In midfield, Fernandez and Prohaska will sit relatively deep, the Frenchman tasked to break up the play with his ball-winning skills and the Austrian to play the role of deep-lying playmaker, dictating the game with his passing skills. Further ahead of them in attacking midfield is Glenn Hoddle, whose ability on the ball and ferocious shot make him a danger to any side.
On the wings, Eder and Bertoni are more than capable goalscorers themselves, but they will also be charged with providing the ammunition for Krankl and making the pitch wide when necessary, allowing space for Hoddle to operate in.
Leading the line is Hans Krankl, consummate finisher and the focal point of my team. Krankl will operate as a fox-in-the-box, similar to Ruud van Nistelrooy at Manchester United. With assistance from Hoddle, Eder and Bertoni, there will surely be chances galore – and a chance usually means a goal for Hans Krankl.
