What a crap team! Assuming Messi, Iniesta and Tevez are in the team
the midfield and attack are reasonable, but the defence is awful.

Totally agree. Defense only Vidic should be there.
And then Arshavin? He is totally worthless. I missed the thread. I
should have voted. The RM/CM/LM/AM is confusing too because Messi,
Ronaldo, VDV roam all over the place and all should simply be AMs. So
the midfield should be Xavi Ronaldo Messi and Iniesta or simply
Barcelona+ Ronaldo.
