Forget the FIFA rankings, or the all-time WC ranking. Here's my actual top 10 list of the best NTs that could be assembled and play without any sort of extra-camp obstacles: 1- Brazil 2- Argentina 3- France 4- Italy 5- England 6- Holland 7- Portugal 8- Spain 9- Colombia 10- Czech Republic No bias intended. Agreed?
MigKiller, why did you put Czech Republic under Colombia and Holland under England. Don't be silly. My list 1)Brazil 2)Netherlands (Van Nistlerooy, Davids, need I say more...) 3)France 4)Argentina 5)Italy 6)Spain 7)Czech Republic (Nedved and Koller are tearing it up) 8)Portugal 9)England 10)Germany

No but I did see this posted : "top 10 list of the best NTs that could be assembled and play without any sort of extra-camp obstacles:" Call me crazy but I would choose the best perfomers who have played the most competitive matches recently. Just trying to play by your rules.
So you are saying there aren't any of the best brazilians or argentineans playing in the toughest championships in Europe? Call it trolling, biased or naive statement, that was the most stupid post I've ever seen so far in this forum.
No , what I'm asking is when was the last time Argentina and Brazil played there best eleven in a competitve match ? Almost a year ago wasn't it ?
Even so, you're not answering the thread title. My question was about "the best NTs that COULD BE assembled", not what teams that were assembled in the recent past. Sorry, nice try.
So current form has nothing to do with it ? Why write this then : "top 10 list of the best NTs that could be assembled and play without any sort of extra-camp obstacles" ?

It's good, if somewhat bizarre to see people taking Wales seriously as a footballing power. Since Terry Yorath was sacked we have been appalling but now we are at last on the up (I hope it lasts).

I think you people hype Germany too much. Look at their run in the WC and how they are sucking in the last Euro2004 qualifyings and friendlies.
