I wanted too see what players you would choose when creating an eleven of the most talented up and coming young stars.
Personally i would have a lot of open spots in my team, as i am not updated on newest talents, or who's touted for greatness.

Gio Dos Santos, Sergio Aguero would probably be in.
Fabregas and Messi is obvious but they are well established so might be a boring choice.
(and a penny to the one who can see a connection with the timing of this post)

Vincent Kompany at centre back and Anthony Vanden Borre at right back and Miguel Veloso who can play centre mid and in defence.

Akinfeev

Vanden Borre, Kompany, Felipe, Leyrielton

Pedro Leon, Veloso, Dos Santos, Guardado

Aguero, Daniel Sturridge.

Someone has been playin a bit too much FM/CM. Kompany's been utter crap for well over a year now, Vander Borre is stuck to the bench at Fiorentina, Gio dos Santos is mostly a winger, and a couple of other guys I've never heard of. To leave Messi and Richards out of it? That's crazy.

Well, their top scorer was a 23 year old who isn't very good, and Ryan Babel shares a position with the under-21 who is the most exciting player in the world at any age

Akinfeev
Bale Richards Pique Djourou
Fabregas Veloso Nasri
Messi Jo Rossi

Also: Benzema Vidal

If you hadnt been to much of a nob to realise he mentioned he wanted to check players on football manager. And by the way how can Kompany be utter crap for well over a year now when he got injured last November and is only now recovering, which meant he only played 9 games altogether. And i would not call Djourou one of the best young talents about.You also say Vanden borre has been on the bench a lot and i was wondering how many times Pique has played, and dos santos cant play centre mid but how come in your team you got Bale at right back?

It puzzles me that you tell me my players arent in there right position or for leaving certain players out when you have got a load of shit in your team.

You've got me twice. Once, I missed what he said about checking FM/CM. Two, I got confused about Kompany. Thought he was dropped rather than injured. Wasn't playing too well when he was hurt, though. Sorry.

Also, I'm reading my right and left opposite, for some reason. I'm certainly aware that Bale is a LB.

The Vanden Borre/Pique thing, however is wrong. Pique was really good when I saw him last year playing in Spain, and has played several times this year. Vanden Borre has yet to get off the bench, as far as I can tell. And I think Djourou is not bad at all, and couldnt think of anyone else.

In 2004, if you were going to pick a team of the best players in the world, would you have picked an Greek players, they did win the Euro Champs then......

Vanden Borre played very well for Anderlecht last season also and to judge him by going to a foreign country at the age of 19 would be wrong, as in our team Boateng, you would not expect him to play often yet would you.

it was a fluke, we all know.

the dutch have actually retained their title, so it should mean for something?

so you're really trying to tell me that the player of the tournament and current real madrid player royston drenthe is a lesser player than djourou?

Drenthe is a left back/midfielder not right back and he picked Djourou for right back already explaining he could not think of anyone else.

A guy who is the best in the world at under 21 should be getting games (at least some) in their teams. I don't expect him to be in their team every game, and that he is not doesn't mean he will be a crap player, or even that he is not a good player now, just that he hasn't proved himself at the top level.

The Belgian League, however, is crap.

Anyways, this wasn't something I put a ton of thought into. If you disagree, that's fine. If you thought I insulted someone, I apologize. That was not my intention.
