CL Team of 2009 – Central Midfielders

By: Rob | May 14th, 2009

So this beast staggers on for another day. You’ve picked the Goalkeeper you’d like in your team, you’ve picked your back line (although the polls are still open if you have not) now we move into the (arguably) more exciting positions, starting in midfield.

So who will you go for? Will it be an all-Catalonia midfield? Will Lampard dragging Chelsea to the Semi Final be enough? Or will Gerrard have the momentum after his FWA win? Will you recall some of the exemplary performances in the group stages? Or just give it to Senna after his goal against Arsenal? It is, as it always is, up to you.

I don’t know that I need to recap the rules, but If I do, basically the players with the most votes make the team. If its a tie, I’ll either jig the formation or have the deciding vote.

Contray to the belief of some fans (see yesterdays comments) I don’t have a prejudice against any team, I’m just trying to give a balance of the whole tournament.

Anyway onwards to votewards!

  Iniesta, all day long. The guy’s a genius.

  from a united fan’s perspective, there is no way carrick should be leading or even in the top 3 of this poll. he’s good but not that good.

  The Cambiasso/Zanetti duo is what kept Inter going for as long as they did. Espec Cambiasso.

  Thinking about it, Fletcher should be in there, maybe instead of Carrick, but probably instead of Moutinho, who really did nothing this year.

  my vote goes for the Yaya. dominant midfielder, when played at his desired position.

  Carrick with 22 percent of the vote? This poll lost.
