No Riquelme or Maxi Rodriguez :eh:

Kaka > Ze Roberto in the WC even though Kaka failed to show up for the last game, he was still more noticable than Ze Roberto

Riquelme and Maxi Rodriguez should definitely be in. Totti has only played well in one game (the semi), and apart from the one game in which he scored a couple of goals, Toni hasn't really done much.

Ze Roberto played better IMO...His tackles and defense were better then Kaka

Lucio should be included in the defense

Fuck knows how Terry got in the squad. He was at fault for a goal against Sweeden and he nearly set a goal up against Equador. Ashley Cole and Ferdinand both played better than Terry for England.
