TEAM SJOR
Tactics:
Dont need tactics, his team is shit.
TEAM ENIGMA
Formation: 4-3-3
Style: Build around der Kaiser in the heart of defence and Messi in attack. Direct style with quick transitions and hitting the opposition with pace.
Defence:
As throughout the draft Franz Beckenbauer bosses the defence, that is tailored to get the best of him with a more defensive minded Bergomi on the right, able to tuck in and allow him to foray forward, a classic strong and rigid stopper in Shesternyov and this time a much more attacking minded full back on the side in Demyanenko who will man his flank, surge forward when we're on the ball to overlap Cristiano and help the attack. Having Garrincha on the right balances out that wing, as Mane Garrincha doesn't need much support to own that flank in the attacking phase.
Midfield:
Midfield is unchanged with Rijkaard at the base, who still protects the back four and shield the defence forming a formidable understanding with Beckenbauer. Rijkaard is well suited to hold fort having played with another libero in Baresi and is perfect for the holding role. In front of him - Graeme Souness - Liverpool's midfield general, who brings even more solid presence to the middle of the park with some real uncanny passing ability and soft touch when on the ball. His range of passing was outstanding, his shifting feet and dribbling ability allowed him to navigate challenges and his technique in cutting across the ball to fire home helped him to 55 goals from midfield. His game was an irresistible blend of subtlety and aggression, mixing the passing range, tenacity, awareness and a sheer force of will that elevated him as one of Pool's finest.
The man who will pull the strings in the middle of the park is Josef Masopust, the ballon D'or winner and referred as the "King of Slalom", but best put by none other than one of the very greats that played at that time:
“I was surprised how full it was as a player. Luis - was one of our best midfielders when disrupt enemy attacks, Suarez was a genius ball, and Paco was fantastic facing the opposing defenses. But Masopust could do all that at once: retrieve the ball, market, dribble and break into the area. He was a player outside series”. The definition corresponds to Ferenc Puskas. Man Talking, as you can imagine Josef Masopust, the best Czechoslovak player in history, chosen by the Czech Federation itself.
Additional quotes on him:
“No matter the opponent, always stood”, He had Pluskal. “He never lost the ball, walls made short passes or until a gap opened and then taking off ... leaving behind one, of, three opponents with breakneck speed, sorteándolos first on one side, then the other, as if they were flags on a training camp. It was just an incredible player”. Yes, rarely peers definitions are as successful as Masopust. It was one of his SUVs midfielders who could wash dishes or fiddling, but always with the best attitude, always with the best note.
Czechoslovak first player to win a Ballon d'Or 1962 (the other is Pavel Nevdev in 2003) and second best player in the World Cup in Chile after Garrincha, if history will reserve a place to Masopust it is the huge legacy left. He started playing in Teplice, but soon the Dukla Prague took him to their ranks, where he was 16 years of service playing over 386 matches in which scored 73 goals. He did before going to Belgium and become the first Czechoslovak national to leave outside its borders to go to another club sign.
They were hard times, where the Dukla was dominated by the army and where Masopust was the real engine of the team. passes, goals, arrival, work, virtually nothing was missing from this todocampista rise even reached four Czechoslovak league and third in the European Championship 1960.
Attack:
The new addition to the team is Lionel Messi who will play in his false 9 incarnation. He will break the line, create space for Ronaldo and be the creative spark in the attacking third. His playmaking ability will come to use with the latter Real version of Ronaldo who became a more all-out goalscorer who is the more of a consumer than the early creator version.
A fearsome trio who can burn the opposition with pace and trickery will attack the space between between the lines and their movement will be real tough to handle even by the greatest backline. Messi and Cristiano are aided by Garrincha who is also in his element - a dribbler in the Neymar mould who is on the same wavelength with Messi and each of the three forwards bring something different to the table - goalscoring and heading ability (Cristiano), playmaking, breaking the lines and movement (Messi) and a pure dribbler and crosser who can create numerical advantage in Garrincha.
