Brazil - 1982 World Cup
Football from another planet, and pioneers of the underrated 2-5-3 formation.
Cemented Zico as my favourite ever player other than Kenny.
26 years on and I can still recite the teamsheet without a thought:
Waldir Peres, Junior, Oscar, Julio Cesar, Leandro, Cerezo, Falcao, Socrates, Zico, Eder, Serginho.
If they hadn't had such a useless lump at centre forward (Serginho), a man who made Tony Cascarino look like the epitome of mobility and deftness of touch, they'd have been recognised as greater than the 1970 team by now. Oh, and if they'd realised that defending when the opposition have the ball in your half is sometimes a necessity rather than a sign of moral weakness.
It might not have carried the same cultural significance as the wreckage of Buddy Holly's plane, but to me that defeat against a grimly cynical and unworthy Italian team was the day the fantasy football died. Kind of.

The Milan team of the mid/late 80's were entertaining.Originally posted by SlovenianKopite View Postnot the most entertaining but most effective - AC Milan team from a couple of years back(cca. 2001-2006)...it was creat to watch how every player knew what was his job, and did it to the best level.
something i'd like rafa to emulate at liverpool(tbh at times he has)
The Barca team which had Romario, Stoichkov et al were also entertaining.We come not to play.

I also liked the way Newcastle played under Keegan in THAT infamous season they should really have won the league."Its not about the long ball or the short ball, its about the right ball." Bob Paisley

Brazil 1982 World Cup team as already mentioned. Absolute fantasy football badly let down by no.9 Serginho. If they had a half-decent striker they'd have thrashed everyone in that tournament.
A close second would be the great Barca 'dream team' of 90s with Romario, Koeman, Stoichkov, Guardiola, Laudrup, Hagi, Bakero etc.Last edited by Montana; 11-02-09, 11:12 PM.

Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.
May the Lord bless this post.
