Default My World Cup Dream Team

Okay guys, i don't know much about soccer, but i came with this for my sportal dream team

GK: Dida (BRA)
GK: Roberto Abbondanzieri (ARG)
Def: Gabriel Heinz (ARG)
Def: Carlos Puyol (ESP)
Def: Alessarndro Nesta (ITA)
Def: John Terry (ENG)
Def: Radhi Jaidi (TUN)
Mid: Michael Balack (GER)
Mid: Claude Makelele (FRA)
Mid: Ronaldinho (BRA)
Mid: Frank Lampard (ENG)
Mid: Deco (POR)
Str: Theirry HENRY (FRA)
Str: Andriy Shevchenko (UKR)
Str: Didier Drogba (CIV)

Bearing in mind that you can have maximum 2 from any team, can anyone give advie as to changes i should make.......

Points are given for scoring goals, saving goals, team winning, playing, clean sheet, and points are taken away for conceding goals, yellow cards, penalties

I also need to nominate someone for double points

Any help would be great

Get rid of Gabriel Heinze hes quite a gamble, he had knee reconstruction in November, will be entering tournament without having played a competitive match since last year. Replace him with Jan Kromkamp, and throw Lionel Messi in the midfield, I am putting HUGE tickets on him this cup hes Maradona on heat

Great that you chose Messi I have big faith in him, Kromkamp is good player and I hope he does well also but there are several capable defenders to select from.. Cech is great goalkeeper, but he does not have rock solid chelsea defenders in front of him with the national team. In the group phase they come up against USA and Italy, both are capable of scoring goals. And should they finish second in the group, they will most likely come up against Brasil in the second round. To say the least not very confident on Czech this cup taking in to account their form and match ups.

Get rid of Makelele. He is a defensive midfielder, which means he will be getting plenty of yellow cards, and he wont be scoring any goals. Swap him for an attacking player.

They should award players based on the number of tackles they make me thinks, because although he is a midfielder who won't score many goals, his contribution to teamplay is very good.
