Your probably right denco. the only way we are going to beat one of the big teams, like Real for example is to either have incredibly good luck, or to reinforce the midfield.
There's no way Zambrotta, Tacchinardi, Davids and Nedved are as good as Figo, Zidane, Solari and Cambiasso
The rest of the team matches up well however.
Gigi V casillas/cesar we win this one
Thuram V Salgado on form, thuram wins
Pessotto V carlos OK they can have this one!
Montero & Tudor V Hierro and pavon easy...

DP V Raul ..oooh close one..I'll be biased and say DP
Trez V Ronnie/Morientes I think Ronnie will most likely be injured and Trez is better than Morientes
so overall i think out team, if on form, is more than a match for real..just the midfield and lack of depth in that area that lets us down.
