just curious, he could have been a fairly well rounded player with the right training, wasn't sure what his training was now at this point. he usually got whatever Fawlty was getting when they were both U21.

Now that the next round of matchups have been determined, what is the outlook for our team in the coming 5 games against Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica and Mexico?... Costa Rica looks like the only sure win in the group with the others possessing some amazing inside players the likes of which we don't have.

I've copied the stats of Mexico's big guy as an example of what we are up against:

I thought abilities didn't matter to you? Game shape trumps everything. ;-)

I'm quite sure I've never said abilities didn't matter to me... however I have said that game shape should be a deciding factor between choosing 2 players of similar ability.
