What an absurd formation. Just to satisfy fans and their personal favorites. This is not what many of these players are known for playing at these positions, nor will this team sustain any viable formation for long given their own attributes. Who is playmaker, who is holding midfielder, why is not Ramos center back, and so many more questions.

Griezmann out for Kante. Kante was one of the main reasons they won but cos people only focus on attack they forget those who carry out the dirty work at the back. Finally Godin gets recognition. Been better than Ramos for years but cos they play for Real and Atletico respectively, Real being the bigger club, a lot of its players got overrated. Also Messi and Ronaldo didn't have a good world cup since this team seems to be based off of world cup so I'd shift the forwards a little. Here's my team for the world cup performers personally. Don't have to agree with it but I think these players did really well at the world cup.....

This team can win every tournament without losing a game, scoring not less then 7 goals in each match 😀😀

This squad no doubt will be devastating upfront but will likely ship in much goals. No protection in midfield no DMF to support the defence. I'll rate the squad 7/10. FIFA xi is far much better

You better use de bruyne instead of Modric. Because De bruyne is 100 times better than Modric and controls the toughest of games unlike Modric who can't even score , assist, keypasses , interceptions nothing. Modric is useless. He is just an hype. He doesn't even touches the level of rafinha who played only 2-3 matches and scored goals. You can use Griezmann or mbappe in place of hazard and de gea in place of Ter stegen.
