GK - Dino Zoff (Italy)
D - Wim Suurbier (Netherlands)
D - Paolo Maldini (Italy)
D - Franz Beckenbauer (Germany)
D - Bobby Moore (England)
M - Bobby Charlton (England)
M - Johan Cruyff (Netherlands)
M - Michel Platini (France)
A - Diego Maradona (Argentina)
A - Alfredo Di Stefano (Argentina/Colombia/Spain)
A - Ferenz Puskas (Hungary)

Subs -
GK - Lev Yashin (Russia)
D - Rudi Krol (Netherlands)
D - Franco Baresi (Italy)
M - Lionel Messi (Argentina)
M - Johan Neeskens (Netherlands)
A - Pele (Brasil)
A - Marco Van Basten (Netherlands)

think my bench might be just as good as my first team :crazy:
