Hers is Top 10 Favourites to win BALLON D'OR 2022👀🔥🔥 ua-cam.com/video/gqNWwfMBaCA/v-deo.html
Only English pundit will pick Gerrard in ucl dream team😜 No chance for Pirlo, Modric, Kroos, Kaka😜
Yes
If it wasn’t for Gerrard, Liverpool wouldn’t of won that 04/05 champions league final in Istanbul. Keep in mind that this was with an average Liverpool squad vs one of the best club sides in football history.
Modric and kroos better than Gérard 👍🤣🤣Nice joke
What you on about. Owen 11 is superb.
You mean real madrid centre mids🙄🙄
Owen surely knows what he's talking about...what a team!!!
Lol , why don't defensive midfielders get any love ,🤣😆, I mean xavi just stole makalele's ,or deschamps slot in that team . Defensive midfielders hardly get any recordnized in all Star teams , except maybe when it's a German or Italian doing the all-star team , funny how they have won the world cup 8 times between them .
@@uromi-owuopukeme6081 Gerrard...
@@DerekDerekDerekDerekDerekDerek Gerrard was a box to box midfieder .
Because Gerrard can play DM as that’s where he started and finished his career plus Xavi can play holding as well. Simples.
My team, beat that team, ronaldinho
Kaka is not even there to choose. Played 2 UCL finals and played top class in both of them.
kaka s career got ruined when he went to real madrid, premier league couldv been better for a high pace player like him, also the injuries did their part.. also got shadowed by cr7.. they were too many stars in one club, so there is no way it couldv worked, but still he is one of the best to have ever touch the ball, that for sure.. it just not easy to be in the same era of cr7 n messi... they made a lot of legends looks just "good" or even "super good" but not legends.. i mean the list is too long... kaka .. iniesta..xavi , pirlo.. ibra.. neymar... ronnie , modric , mo salah, Samuel etoo, drogba... and the list go on... it surely an era full of legends... i didnt mention ronaldino .. cuz he got the title of legend anyway.. and if he had the discipline like cr7 n messi, i bet he is better than them by far in terms of pure talent.. but he was just having fun... never played seriously.. lack of training n so on.. still the most spectacular player in history
@@FOOTSHOTS1 what's the point of your comment? He does not deserve to be on the list?
Who would you take off to put Kaka in ?
@@top10healthyways86 you need to know that was owen list , not your list .
@@pRosix30 You need to know that Owen chose from the list that was provided by the producers of the show.
You need to also know that my claim was that Kaka deserves to be at least in this expanded list from which one can choose his best XI.
I never said that Kaka must have been chosen in Owen's best XI.
Amazing words for Zidane👏🏽
Owen says Maldini had a great left foot. That's true but not many know he was naturally right footed.
Even fewer would know if you watched him live back in the day..... As two-footed as they come. Bonafide legend
Couldn’t lace Van Dijk’s boots though
@@davidalexhughes wow
@@davidalexhughes van who?!? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yeah his stature is too tall to bend and tie laces of likes of vvd
@RS3DRIVER8919 hahahaha who the heck is thay van car what? You dont ever compared that guy with Maldini ever again.
I think Zidane is highly understimated because a lot of his skills, can't be shown in highlghts or stats.
You can't show how much, he made his teamates better or the way he controled the tempo of a game through Highlight.
Just like you can' show his ability to always has his best performances in Biggest games.
Has time goes on we tend to forget how great he was and that he was considered the best player in the World for extend period of time.
He's not underrated by anyone.. And his skillset are an absolute highlight material. What are you talking about?
@@musclecat7910 When you watch comment on youtube, a lot of people probably young who haven't actually watch him play, tend to shit on Zidane.
I don' know how many comments I have seen people saying is not top 10 of all time. because of his stats.
Some crucial part of Zidanne game isn't highlight material; like Vision, controlling tempo, showing up in big games, Zidane highlghts are great but there only a small sample of what actually made him the best player in the world for an extended periof of time.
@@jorisoims3085 for someone who have watched football since the late 90’s Zidane is actually rated very accurately based on his unmatched ability, but overrated based on his consistency. He’s rated so highly because he’s a clutch player, but at club football, him - like Ronaldinho - only has 2-3 unreal seasons.
Agree, and the same thing can be said about Pirlo on his prime. You won't know how he control and orchestrated the game from YT highlights.
@@jorisoims3085 I see.. haven't seen that kind of comment tho
Ronaldinho was born to play football and entertain us with his unbelievable touches and skill.
Yeah but it is unfortunate he only played like 3-4 years real football. After winning his ballondor he literally quit his game
@@gshenry3 dude won everything in a 4 year span what do you want from him.
I remember playing FIFA 2002 and selecting England as a team and Michael Owen was the star player in FIFA 2002 with those fire shots , how cool was that , He was the best player at early 2000 and now he is right next to Rio picking his all time champions league team .
I had Fifa 99 on pc, horrible graphics 😂. But I liked the atmosphere.
Ps2 Winning Eleven 2003 was awesome tho.
Gerrard is a complete midfielder. He had everything, played all across the midfield and was consistent throughout his career. Even Madrid wanted him and he stayed loyal.
Respect for choosing Buffon. He is simply the greatest goalkeeper of all time. He was the best UCL keeper in at least a few different seasons, including the 3 years he went to the final, he brought Juventus there. He even saved 2 Milan penalties in the 2003 final shootout. As a keeper you can’t be expected to do much more than that after 5 penalties. His team let him down in all 3 finals. Additionally, in 2006 he was the WC champion, best keeper in the world BY VERY FAR when Juventus went down to Serie B. Every team wanted him, especially Barcelona to replace Valdes. He could’ve easily went on to win multiple UCL, but he chose to stay. Have to respect it
Neuer is clearly better for me
And Valdes is younger than Buffon. He could have 3 UCL if he came to Barca but chose to stay loyal. Imagine Clasico against Casillas, NAVAS, and then Courtois. 3 Different Madrid GK generation
You're drunk mate..

@@egbuna1mm
Buffon been playing for more then 25 years at top top level, won World Cup, Serie A, lots of caps for both Juve and Italy, was the most expensive goal keeper until Allison to Liverpool, Rated by many top players who played with and against him, today football fans dont watch football for pleasure or beauty of it and only look at trophees and whos better Ronaldo or Messi
True bro. This is Champ league XI though - how many he win? How did he do? ...
I'm no hater at all - I like Buffon, but you have lost your mind/ have no understanding of the game if u pick Buffon as the best ever Champions League keeper. Absolute delusional.
Its all down to opinion and what kind of system they're playing in, if its a Pep or Klopp system with the ball playing GK with good distribution then Neuer is obviously the best choice, if its one of the older systems then Buffon or Casillas would be good choices aswell.

Playing outside England made Owen open minded and realistic.
Except the fact he chose Gerrard over Kroos/Modric

@@midfielderlounge2592 wow I won’t even bother saying how stupid that comment was. Oh wait my bad
Modric came to limelight only after Xavi & Iniesta retired. The duo would toy around with Madrid midfield or any midfield in the world, be it UCL, Euro or World Cup.
Brazilian Ronaldo at his absolute peak,I would pick him all day long...
Ok. But CR7 has better statistics on champions league.
@@thevikinghol The Brazilian played much less due to injuries
Not over Ronaldo or messi
@@exfibra Brazilian Ronaldo scored like 15 ucl goals.
Hard to compare players like iniesta and Xavi with Gerrard and Lampard because they played such a different game in leagues that where so different back then. Now the Premier League has addapted to more technical play compared to 20 years ago.
refs give far more free kicks now a days for the softest of tackles, and that's coming from someone in early 20s. You had to be a fighter back then in the prem. Son is a great player, but he wouldn't survive.
Lamp add was tremendous is league and ucl both. He was making tackles and goals both.
lol not sure what you're implying here. But everyone knows Premier League has always been the highest level of football there is compared to the other leagues.
Technical play? Have you seen the premier league now? Players can no longer control the ball, pick a pass, pick a head in a cross, the technical ability of players have dropped dramatically since the mid to late 2000s when they started choosing players and youth players on physical characteristics and not playing ability. The level of skill is Sunday league compared to teams 20 years ago they can’t even run at speed with the ball without hard touches these days. Baffling comment.
a pretty damn good team from owen here with actual good insight!
Buffon unbelievable ,the best goalkeeper ever in the football history..
Agreed, but i believe it is incredible close, between him and van der Sar.
Neur is better bro, Buffon only considered one of the best cause he been playing for so long but we all know Neur is weay better
@@sindrek632 Neuer was indeed a super goalie, the only small thing i have against him not being in my top 2 is that he started making quiete a few mistakes now in the later part of his career, Buffon and van der Sar didnt.
Buffon lost his value when he continued playing at old age and didn't retire in time
@@sindrek632 nope
9:20...Goosebumps 🔥👌🏻
Those that criticise Zidane may not have been privileged to watch him. As lizarazu said, we literary gave him the ball and watched from the pitch😅😅. In 90 minutes, the guy literary had the ball for 10 minutes. The rest share the ball for 80 minutes. That’s dominance.
Grateful for the behind-the-scenes insight from Owen. Man Utd supporter but I absolutely loved Owen, I was very happy when he joined us...He is one of the big 'what ifs?' in the game. Injuries really robbed us of a magnificent player. Owen didn't even reach his prime😒
Owen was massively overhyped. He never reached the 20 goal mark in the league at any point in his career. He wasn't even the best striker at Liverpool - that was Fowler, a striker who actually scored goals. As for Gerrard being in that team when Modric exists; ridiculous.
Liverpool flogged him to death whilst he was still growing. As a teenager and then injury after injury but when fully fit before his knee injuries he was up there with the best . At 17 years old he was playing constantly such a shame he wasn't taken care of.
@@tycarne7850 Incredibly quick tho and a great finisher him and Fowler were the best instinctive inside the box finishers in EPL until Ruud Van Nistelrooy arrived .
His prime just came early. He was one of the best strikers from ages 17/25 that's a long time at the top and was ok at real Madrid 13 in 36 games whilst being used as sub mainly and new country. And he the tenth highest scorer in the premiership with a great ratio which would of been better if it ended a Liverpool.Not a what if at all agreat career
personally ill go, iker casi ,most appearance, 3 tittles , ramos , maldini , carlos , cafu , xavi , modric ,iniesta ,zidane , messi , ronaldo .. it a full attacking team but regarding the champions league stats, i cant go without modric with a 5 titles come on.... and it a disgrace to touch one of the others. so ill respect football and stick with them and no need for midfield defense, iker n maldini n ramos can do the job... even if the opponent score 3 this team will score 10 easy
you can make a case for seerdof if he was white he would've be regarded more than he does now, 3 champions league with the different teams, and could play anywhere in the midfield
Would pick Lahm ahead of Cafu
no leave buffon in and instead of modric pick ronaldinho as CAM and pls not cr7 take the Brazilian R9
oh and just one more thing
Baresi instead of Ramos
I love every single player you mentioned but this would be a NIGHTMARE
@@raulschneider5345 shut up dude
Gerrard can play the role of busquets or seedorf or pirlo or kaka on the tactical side of things. We have seen him play like all of them at moments in the game. Plus a box-to-box endless energy, consistent worldies and crunching tackles, defends well and less injury prone. He could do it all. (i know its coming....can slip also!)
I think Gerrard's greatest undoing to himself is been good in all departments as a midfielder
love Michael's british accent, not every day you can watch or hear a British person with such a beautiful accent. Never to mention that he is one of the best Strikers ever...
This is literally as spot on as it can get 🔥
what a team, my god... great choice. (honorable mentions to Neuer, Puyol, Nesta, Lahm, Pirlo, Rooney & of course Il Fenomeno Ronaldo)
Rooney? Rooney never turned up in finals. Secondly Rooney was Dirk Kuyt with a temper.
Who invited my man Gerrard? Modric>>>>
Great individuals in every position but almost too many stars to be a team in the true sense. Needs more bite and graft. I'd add a Keane, Terry or even Effenberg. Modric a good shout too.
The team needs a makelele or a Kante to make it gel and be a winning team!
this team looks beautiful,cant even argue against anyone but for me as a german im always shocked when people dont pick neuer in goal because for me he is by far the goat !!
Neuer is far too error prone for me. Buffon is the GOAT
@@marcusg6997 its your opinion,but you cant be real ?! I cant think of 1 game in his whole career where he cost germany or bayern a game by making a big error and if you think about how much risks he takes its even more insane so i dont know where you get that opinion from !
@@olir.6654 it doesnt have to be to cost a game, just in general he is a little TOO ambitious as a goalkeeper for me. His error against Inter when he was at Schalke sticks out to me. I respect your opinion tho !
Oliver Kahn was class too...one of my favourite goalkeepers of all time 'der titan'
Manuel Neuer
Alves
Carlos
Nesta
Terry
Pirlo
Iniesta
Scholes
Cristiano Ronaldo
Messi
Benzema
Only english will choose Gerrard , Seedorf Modric were better when it comes to CL
How is Modric not in here? 5x UCL winner and one of (if not THE) best CM ever.
Its not about the ucls or trophies u win but the sheer quality and how they impacted the game at their time regardless of this modric literally is one of the best but since i am a barca fan and most would agree it was the style of play that shocked the world from xavi and iniesta
@@turnitupbruh Xavi,Iniesta in Barca had Messi with them and in Spain has a national side with 7 players from Barca and other legends from Real. Modric in UCL is greatest midfielder. This list makes zero sense without Modric. What happened when Modric was injured in 15. It's after he arrived team started winning. Modric+ Alonso 14..Modric - Kroos- Casemiro from 16-21 was very crucial in victories.
@@user-bi5nw4vp6t the list should have modric in it no doubt but i dont think so he would be in the lineup regardless of the 5ucl and go check fergies comment after the ucl final on xavi and iniesta. BRO THEY PLAYED THE GAME IN A WAY THAT HADNT BEEN PLAYED AND NEVER WILL BE PLAYED LIKE THAT
@@turnitupbruh So?? So what..That 11 final they played that well but that's one important game. Modric had decent performances in important games throughout UCL,, both attack and defence. His contributions in 5 UCL victories was so good and he played all well ,, not just some legendary performances. Xavi didn't play 06 final and was sub in 2015 UCL . In two victories 09,11 his role was crucial. Iniesta made difference in 06 and was part of next 3 including an motm in 15. But none of them can claim what Modric did in all 5 UCL. If it's UCL then Modric> Iniesta> Xavi. His absense in 15 UCL Semi and Frankie outperforming him in 19 UCL r16 etc shows how important he is for RM .
@@user-bi5nw4vp6t Hahahahahhaha lol modrics career really started in Rm and also he was considered a flop signing but no hate towars him he is still one of the best but the hate the madrisitas show towards xavi and iniesta shows how good they fuk u up in their era
When they have all these great defenders and probably my back 4 would be the same with maybe one change in Ramos but hey I'm not even mad at that , we are talking about CL here , not to even to say M. Belodedici as an honorable mention is so wrong , but hey I get it he was the first player to win with two different teams and played in both finals , and the only player to win with 2 eastern european teams ( the only ones that ever won the CL) , in my eyes that is even more spectacular . He is the most underrated player in his position ever. I don't expect people to know the history of the game so ...
The UCl XI
Casillas ,
Ramos , Maldini, Marcello , Dani Alves
Busquets, Zidane , Modric ,
Messi , C. Ronaldo , Eto'o.
Coach : Ancelotti
These players had incredible champions league performances in at least two seasons, don't look at league performances but UCL only!
I'd put kaka instead of modric
Seedorf won more ucl than the entire midfield,way better than Gerrard
seedorf was inconsistent
He won 4 champions league yeh inconsistent.
Then kroos is better than zidane xavi iniesta righy
Nope
Seedorf won 1995 ajax, 1998 Madrid
Milan 2003 2007
It’s a real shame he had to ruin his team by picking Gerrard. Pirlo or Scholes and that team would go wild.
Pirlo maybe, Scholes? 😂 Scholes wasn’t really a stand out in the CL like he was in the PL.
I prefer Scholes and Pirlo too but I think Iniesta and Xavi come as a pair. Imagine the bench!
@@kazoh0lic Scholes played 50 more UCL games than Gerrard. Stats are not that important for a centre mid.
@@seel33lees What does Iniesta and Xavi have to with it?
Modric and Kroos are way better than Pirlo and Scholes
So REALISTIC!
i cant argue that team, at all! i probably agree fully.. goalies there are others, but u cant on buffon so... idk that team is insane
Modric best !!!
Mental how good and highly rated michael Owen was in the late 90s early 2000s. He was defo one of the best strikers that has ever been. His speed his finishing how sharp he was. Remember watching the Arsenal V Liverpool FA cup final in 2001. When FA cups were actually appreciated you know when U2s a beautiful day was on match of the day and you used to sit and watch it on a sat night when TV was good and Love island and all that shit would have been cringed at. You ask the up and coming generation I bet they don’t even know who Michael Owen is. They will just say it’s that boring fucker from Chester who can’t pundit. Shame. Footballs changed so much and I think for the worst. Miss the good all days.
Gotta echo this. I do agree he's far from the best pundit. But if you were old enough to remember him playing at his best, he was electric. That hat trick against Germany in 2001 will stay with me forever, we were beaten and staying at home for summer 2002 wc to hear them all talk. Then he turns up at their own place and destroys them. Him and Becks got us to that tournament. Even if it did fall short as per usual with England, we almost never went at all.
@@heskeylator I a remember that. Sitting in the dinner hall at 7 in the morning when they played Brazil because of time difference. That Brazil team was one of the best teams at a World Cup we should have beat them. We would have won if we did.
@Trolling Deep That's good to hear. He gets a lot of pure hate in England, from England fans too. Considering he put country before club many times, it shows people have short memories. He was always bagging us goals, not his fault injuries caught up. And Capello was that inept he was picking players like Carlton Cole. That all showed in 2010 when it came home to roost.
You lived deluded back then. I've heard so much about this kid in late 1998 that when Liverpool played my team in the old UEFA Cup I went to the pre-match training to see him and Fowler. What a dissapointment. My team beat Liverpool easilly in both legs, with a 4-1 aggregate and this was becasuse our forwads sucked way even more. Think about it, the second Liverpool got rid of Owen ->UCL glory.

@@davidalexhughes The best ULC team, or the best team in another competition?
First player I'd want in my team would be a captain a real leader and a real driving force through the midfield. For me there can only be one. Although the champions league title eluded him he won a raft of titles in Germany and the World Cup. The 1990 Ballon d'Or winner
Lothar Matthaus
Ramos, Zidane and Gerard not enough for you.
I mean almost every one of those players he picked Captain'd a team at some point. Messi, CR7, Zidane, Ramos, Maldini, Iniesta, Cafu, Buffon all wore their national team armband and took them to glory. Majority of them also wore the armband at their club team as well and took them to glory.
MATTHAUS was impressive that time. But, he was playing most of his career before UCL era. Most player in Owen's UCL all time XI are captain either their national and club team. And most of them are amazing captain like MALDINI and Ramos
I was named after this guy! Happy to see him!
Michael Owen: I judge based on performance on the on pitch and on training
Also Michael Owen : Buffon (never played with him)

Can't argue with any of those selections.
Ramos... Because of Deciplenery record..if it were not there.... Would be the greatest defender to play the game.... Won everything.... Scored goals.... Strong.... Fast.... Just world class
R9 is the greatest striker of all time. Unmatched dribbling and ball control skill set, excellent speed, right foot and positioning in and outside the box. He was the perfect striker. However, all those facets cannot be used to discredit Messi or Ronaldo. Both have shadow aspects of Ronaldo, but at varying levels. More importantly, the killer mentality. Scoring hatricks in high pressure games and the never die attitude is what puts them above R9 and other great strikers.
Neither broke their knees like R9 did. And they played for teams that were a million times better.
Also, Messi is shit under pressure, he crumbles every time, he's mentally weak.
Van Basten was better than R9 both technically and also elegance wise. People forget Van Basten but he was the best striker. Messi is the greatest of all time, no one compares to Messi, doing it for nearly 15 years is insane, so Messi is the vest.
That midfield 😱
The best XI ever 🔥👌🏆
the logical thinking to switch manuel neuer as goal keeper and Luka modric insted of Gerrard
As an ex-striker, he picks attacking players with attcking strategy. Should have picked reserves for devensive midfielder like Makalele or Davids...
Tactics aren't relevant in this context you muppet
Busquet and casemiro also are good they have won 4/5 ucls
No Bayern player? Agree with ramos and maldini for sure and Ronaldo and Messi and Modric. One day hope Kimmich gets into these lists he’s very underrated even though he’s top 2 or even arguably top 1 best midfielder itw alongside KDB Modric too

I totally agree with Owen, one by one.

Zidane is one of the greatest of all time but I think even he would struggle to be as good as prime R9. Outside CR7 Messi Pele and Maradona the next name is R9. His knee problems plagued his career otherwise he'd have been up there with those 4. He was probably better than any of those 4 at 18.
u comparing CAM and CM to Strikers ?? stfu
I agree 100% but longevity is so key, keeping injury free is one of the hardest skills in football. Also R9 hasn't won the UCL, i would say that should be at least a requirement to get into a best UCL 11

My GK and whole defense were exactly the same as Michael’s. Cafu is incredible with Dani Alves close second in my opinion at right back. Midfield I would switch gerrard with busquests then move busquests to CDM and move xavi up next to Iniesta. Top two strikers: Messi and CR7. Enough said.
Let me know what you think. Curious what others think.
Honorable mentions: kaka, Íker Casillas, Manuel neuer, Ronaldinho, drogba, Carles puyol, pirlo, gerrard (even though I subbed him with Busquets), Thierry Henry, cannavaro, Ronaldo, Pelé, Maradona, modric, kroos.

The person who swaps gerrard for bousquet does not know anything about football.gerrard with his eyes closed legs tied and hand behind his back is better player then bousquets.which world are you living at..
@@humayun. Quiet the opposite, Busquets is a far better passer and tackler. He cant score goals like Gerrard, but a Midfielder's job is not to score goals. When you have Messi, you don't need a goal-scoring midfielder like Gerrard.
@@halfvolley11 come on.he was a solid defensive midfield whose job was to tackle win the ball and give to better players.like xavi and iniesta
Gerrard is like one of those better players.its job of people like bousquts to supply them balls ,not be compared with such legends.obviously you dont know word talent.Gerrard is the most complete player of his generation.
Why am i arguing about this ........
Owen is top Claas, could listen to him all day long
Damn, I love that team!! 🤣🤣
People disrespecting Gerrard are either 15 year old jobless virgins who never saw him play or bias inbred mancs who prefer a toe nail eating freak, Gerrard has a bigger legacy in the UCL than prem, he single handedly carried a piss poor liverpool team with the likes of Traore to UCL glory, scoring in the final to beat a Great Milan team that boasted the likes of Kaka,Maldini,Shevshenko,Cafu,Pirlo etc. He also scored 30 ucl goals, to put that into context, modric as great as he was and im not denying that, scored 13. For me in terms of ability i agree xavi, iniesta,modric and ofcourse Zizou are better, but none of those could carry Liverpool to ucl glory the way gerrard did. He is unique, also, stop hating, this is OWENS team if you loser cant read, its his opinion.
All due respect to Stevie G, but there are simply better CMs… Zidane, Iniesta, Xavi, Modric, etc.
Not really fair to compare goals to Modric - Modric was not asked to score. Madrid had the likes of Ronaldo, Benz, Bale, Vinicius, etc up front. Modric’s job was to control the game, and he was and is an absolute master at it.

With all due respect to Buffon who is amazing, how does he keep getting in a UCL XI?
Because he's one of the best ever between the sticks.

@@jakefarronmerlin7963 What a strange logic
@@crog9138 its not a logical puzzle its literally a free choice.
Xavi was a beast in all the finals he played.
Everything Owen says here is absolutely bang on, think he gets a lot of unfair hate for his punditry
Owen is an idiot. There is no way Buffon will be ahead of Cassilas. Also the midfield trio of Modric, kroos and casimero is hard to ignore. Collectively no other midfeild can match them.
I'm okay with not picking Casillas as the goalkeeper if this was not for an all time champions league XI, but in my humble opinion he has to be in the team. First of all he the most clean sheets in the champions league (also the most cleen sheets in 21st century as a whole), holds the record for most selections in world 11 alongside Buffon and Neuer with 5. He has 3 champions league wins to Buffons 0 and Neuers 2. I think it's debetable in the big picture who was the better between Buffon and Casillas, but when picking an all time XI for champions league specifically and not an all time XI in the history of football, I think you have to go with Casillas. The fact that Buffon didn't win it, has to count against him and the fact that they played more or less the same amount of seasons in the champions league as first choice goalkeepers for their respective clubs but Casillas made 177 appearences to Buffons 124, should make the choice clear especially considering they are the two goalkeepers with the most appearences in the champions league and Casillas has that many more appearences than Buffon on top of winning it 3 times to Buffons 0 (even though Buffon made 3 finals). So honestly anytime Casillas is not picked in an all time champions league XI, I consider it a disgrace to San Iker's legacy.
you are overreacting. Its called an opinion, and it doesnt have to be the same with yours.
@@newbnooby6438 Sure I might be overreacting, but as I pointed out this is a specific competition, in which I can't see any argument for not picking Casillas before any one else. As I pointed out it's different if you pick an all time XI, that's not only for the champions league.
@@jeppeballe7181 I know, I realized you are talking about CL only, but again, we are talking about personal opinion, the criteria are different from person to person. From your comment, I assume you choose Casillas mainly based on abilities and stats. Others might not think so. The same reason why many people will choose Ronaldinho in their CL team despite the fact that his CL career, while impressive, is far from the best.
@@newbnooby6438 I don't base it on stats, but rather back up my opinion with stats. For the record I'm definitely biased towards Casillas, as I grew up watching the original galaticos and became a madrista in my early years (I was a goalie aswell myself). Sure some might pick for instant Ronaldinho in their XI, but honestly he wouldn't even belong in the conversation. Yes, he was tremendous, but I feel when it's competition based, you have to account for accolades, even if your opinion is that you prefer another player than the one you want to pick. But that's jist the way I see it if you don't agree, the keep thinking that I'm overreacting and good day to you sir.
Neuer is a better gk than Casillas and i dont care what anybody has to say.
I am surprised that Pirlo is so underrated.
He’s overrated because of his longevity.
Overrated by far
Zidan was great but the 10jersey should go to either Ronaldinho or Maradona
Although i prefer the samba master
Kaká is an honorable mention
With that formation I'd just swap Nueur in and D.Alves, and Modric has to be in it. HAS TO

I love Ramos, IMO he is one of the most complete players ever. but if you have Paolo Maldini you have to take Franco Baresi next to him. those 2 only conceded like 26 goals in 190 matches or something like that.
All I’m saying is Stam
I would have replaced Gerrad and have xavi in his place. And the position xavi is in i would have Makelele or Kante and then it would be a proper balanced winning team. The presence of makelele/Kante would make Zidane, Xavi and Iniesta even way better and would make the team gel and be balanced. Makelele/Kante infront of that defence of Madini and Ramos will make it the most formidable defensive team. And with Cafu and Carlos overlapping to join the attack you need a makelele/Kante to make that team balanced and for it to tick.
If it's a 433 I would still have Makelele, Zizou and Xavi as the midfield and will add R9 to the forwards with Messi and Cristiano but with Messi playing behind the strikers just a lil bit and sometimes with Messi and Cristiano on the wings and R9 as center forward.
This team is lethal
No, it's shit, Zidane doesn't belong. And there are far better defensive midfielders than Xavi.

I love Drogba. Difficult decision to put him out. Alternate for viera is Edgar Davids. I want my team to be like machine, robust, tenacious and clinical.
No Pirlo, no party...
Terrific team but could be too soft.
I reckon there is a chance this team could work because ramos and maldini are so phisical and good they can count as 3 players.
But you do need another dog and i would replace gerard with an aggressive dm.
So in owens formation, xavi will go instead of gerard. And in the dm position i would put a patrick viera style player.
Gerrad was insanely good in europe
Gerrard was defensive!
Buffon, Alves, Ramos, Maldini, Marcelo, Xavi, Iniesta, Pirlo, Zidane, Messi and Ronaldo, that’s for me the greatest champ league team
Modric instead of Pirlo and it is ok.
I also would love to see ZOLA among in this lot.
You can create 5 best teams and none would be better than another. They'd all be top class!
That team is nuts crazy.
Seedorf ahead of Gerrard
Plus I hate how no deep lying playmaker/natural CDM is in the team. Makelele, Busquets, Pirlo, Casemiro.
I understand you lose one of the great midfielders but a top 11 has someone screening/shielding the defence.
Great team although I think R9 has to be in there.. greatest striker of all time imo
It’s an ‘all time champions league team’. R9 doesn’t have much of a ucl legacy
@@munchlarry2585 Yeah I guess that's true
great team. cant argue.
Unbelievable
For based on achievement and quality, they all deserve in there. But this team will not work because several players have same type there. Defenders and strikers maybe no problem there but midfielders arent suitable. You have to eliminate at least two of them and change with other player and adjust to style of play. You dont need two or three maestro in field. xavi, iniesta and zidane in the same team are wasteful. Just pick two of them and replace for players like kaka, ronaldinho, or even pure striker. And if you have xavi, iniesta, or zidane, it means gerrad isnt suitable to them bacause this team will not play kick and rush or long ball.
My champions league 16 ( new format) Personal choices (admiration, skill, club preference, and only winners make the list)

12. Manuel Neuer (composure and focus)
Petr Cech, Van der Sar, Casillas, Kahn, Peruzzi, Vitor Baía, Courtois, Keylor, Dida, Júlio César....

2. Cafú (Stamina, quality, consistency)
Carvajal (consistency, serial winner)
Zanetti (quality, stamina,, club status, career, leadership)
Lahm (career, quality, vision)

Raul, Rooney, Henry, Mijatovic, Del Piero, Suker, Neymar, Benzema, Bale, Torres, Shevchenko, Inzaghi, Vialli, Drogba, Müller, Savicevic, Andy Cole, etc
Give me Henry/Lewa/Figo then Seedorf/Pirlo/Lampard with Marcelo/Nesta/Puyol/Carvajal and Neuer as a goalkeeper and I think we can best that team.
Carvajal over Cafu?
@@chriscao5307 I believe Carvajal in his current form is top tier, but you might have a point, Cafu could easily be there instead. Dani Alves in his prime was cool too
@@prizonier2 No doubt Carvajal is the best RB in the world rn or at least top 3. But he doesn't have that same impact on the game that Alves and Cafu if you know what I mean.
No way, you’ll get battered 😂😂😂 this midfield would make your midfield run behind the ball like chickens and their attack is the greatest ever and miles above ur attack. Even the defence is better or at least equal. Buffon or Neuer is debatable, could give that to prime Neuer, but CR7 scores against him for fun (and who remember the Messi chip vs Neuer 😭). Ur team will stand no chance
@@merengue7139 I dunno man, I think most of my players are underestimated. Henry single handedly carried a pretty mediocre Arsenal team to the final against Ronaldinho's Barcelona and even in 10 men it was pretty competitive, Barca barely won. Lewa is carrying the Polish team by himself as well, prime Lampard was almost perfection. Pirlo in my opinion was the best ever in terms of long passing. Puyol probably the best in terms of being a captain ever. The team in the video is much better statistics wise, but let's not forget that Ronaldo and Messi made history in a time where other teams didn't really have amazing players, whilst during 2000-2010 or around that time, almost all teams had amazing players, football was way more contested and teams were way more balanced in terms of talent

Gerrard was the greatest box to box midfielder of all time gerrard used to be clear in individual awards - in 2015 he was in the uefa team of the 21st century with xavi & iniesta. His lack of longevity is why he’s so underrated.
Neuer - Carlos, Ramos, Nesta, Cafu - Vieira, Xavi, Iniesta - Cristiano, Messi, Henry.
Where’s Modric?
@@nightsphenom7122 he is very very good but not better than xavi and iniesta.
Kinda weird shape since hes tried his best to get Gerrard in there. Personally I'd go Neuer, Dani Alves, Ramos, Puyol, Maldini, Makelele, Zidane, Iniesta, Messi, R9, C.Ronaldo. I need some balance in there, Alves and Messi had such a great relationship so allow Alves to get up there a lot, then Ramos, Puyol and Maldini can easily become a back 3 when dominating the play. Makelele is the best protector, way clear of Busquets. Zidane has to be in there, and Iniesta can drift around the pitch wherever he wants as he was that good. Front 3 picks itself.
