All time CAFC X1 - With a twist

Don't think this has been done...

Had a mate message me, asking me to create my all time CAFC X1 to go up against his...You must have seen these people play and all eleven have to have different nationalities! Trickier than you'd think...Go!

    Either it's "all time" or "Must have seen them play".

    There isn't a country called "Striker" so either Yann or Alou Diarra will need to be left out of your side
    Oh thats annoying, I was reviewing my team and because I didnt see France listed I removed Buyens for Diarra

    I have made some serious amendments to mine though as forgot the likes of Di Canio | Kishishev etc which is nothing short of criminal!!

    The hard part isn't finding the eleven nationalities but leaving others out
  • GK - Dean Kiely (Ireland)

    RB - Kishishev (Bulgaria)
    CB- Jorge Costa (Portugal)
    CB - Joe Gomez (England)
    LB - Hreidarsson (Iceland)

    what a side that would be in their prime

    why?
    Because "all time" means since 1905 where as "must have seen them play" means since you started going.  Unless someone has been going since 1905 the two are mutually exclusive.

    So any player from the 1950s or before is pretty much ruled out.  Italian international Firmani, Swede Hans Jeppson, Scot Chris Duffy, etc etc ruled out.

    You are indeed correct although he started his career as a defender. That said, I think you are right and he is playing out of position so, after being found out and going a goal down, I've decided to re-arrange the team to this:

    Kiely (Republic of Ireland)

    Kishishev (Bulgaria)
    Song (Cameroon)
    Costa (Portugal)
    Hreidasson (Iceland)

    Moore (Wales)
    Parker (England)

    Di Canio (Italy)
    Zheng Zhi (China)
    Simonsen (Denmark)
     
    Kermogant (France)
  • I always thought Kish was a pretty poor right back. Great defensive midfielder though. There's not much you can argue with most of the teams that have been put up but I'd put Luke Young in at RB and sack Parker off because sod him
    Kiely (Ireland)
    Young (England) - El Karkouri (Morocco) - Costa (Portugal) - Hreidarsson (Iceland)
    Jensen (Denmark) - Song (Cameroon) - Smertin (Russia) - John Robinson (Wales)
    Di Canio (Italy) - Bartlett (South Africa)

    Feel bad leaving out Fish, Johansson and Euell, but I'll be goddamned if Shaun Bartlett doesn't get into my team
  • Smertin's a great shout.

    why?
    Because its not all time if I can't pick anyone from before 1987?
  • OP stated he was creating his 'all time CAFC XI' from players he'd seen play though

    Thierry Racon - Guadeloupe
    Omar Pouso - Uruguay

    Jamal Campbell- Ryce - Jamaica

    Chris Dickson - Ghana
    Tresor Kandol - Congo


    EDIT: Annoyingly I've just discovered that two of my worst players are both Moroccan! Bergdich and El Kjalej.

    That means 3 at the back and Bergdich goes as El Khalej was even more awful if that's possible. Karim Bagheri comes in to make it 3-5-2.
  • Apologies to Fanni, Sodje, Campbell and Campbell- Ryce who weren't really crap usually but to make a crap side that met the criteria they were needed!

    I'm busy constructing my team. What nationality was Yohann Thuram-Ulien, by the way?

    He was Frank Worthington's father in law. Now, Worthington is 71 so it is not surprising that many will remember Dwyer!
