World Cup 2014

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

David Luiz and Marcelo have to be right up there, surely

Seriously though, I though both Dutch wing-backs (Blind/ Kuyt) were solid through out the tournament. Hard for a wing-back to feature in a game but they were both incredibly consistent, reliable.

Neymar would have been what we wanted Messi to be if he had at least a 50% reliable defence behind him. Also, I think Brazil should forget strikers. France won without one. Use the false no.9 trick.

Off topic but my favourite formation is now, without a doubt, 3-4-3. The Dutch and The Chilien teams were excellent with it.
