CL Team of 2009 – Wingbacks

By: Rob | May 13th, 2009
   

Cashley counts his votesSo yesterday you picked your centre halves. The day before you picked your goalkeepers (If you haven’t, you still can). Today you get to complete your defensive back line (which is currently looking very Man United-centric) and pick your wingbacks.

The rules, as ever, are very simple. the two wingbacks with the most votes will make the team of the year. You can pick Other but you have to tell me who in the comments. I won’t vote, unless its a draw, then I get the deciding vote. The poll closes when I deem it so (which will probably be the day after the strikers poll).

So who is going to make your team? Were Dani Alves early season performances enough to make you forget his game against Chelsea? Will their neutering of Messi be enough to get Bosingwa or Cole in the team? Do you want a Brazilian in the team enough to go for a certain Liverpool wingback (There were, controversially no Samba boys last time around) Will Sergio Ramos ability to be Real’s best attacking and smartest defensive threat be enough to grab him a place in the team? Have I forgotten someone really obvious? Its on you.

Below is the poll – choose wisely. Remember top two make it in, with one for the bench.

    can i vote for none of them? i love alves but hes looked awful. i’d say the best of the rest was bosingwa, but even he was nothing spectacular. where’s santon for that job he did on ronaldo?

    You can’t honestly vote for a player on one performance. Wow, some people are stupid..

    “You can’t honestly vote for a player on one performance. Wow, some people are stupid..”

    And some people can’t count.
    Or watch a football game objectively.
    Or give an Italian player his due when he deserves it. Or, you know, think independently of Setanta Sports…
