I sense the disagreements are going to come later, aren't they? matched

I'm amazed that you guys are choosing your formations so early. matched

So many variables. matched

Jack. matched

Two in a row, isn't it? matched

And I had about six or seven. matched

players outlined that i would be happy to take first two picks one of them is still available and that is garincha i mean i've never seen a more inevitable thing i'm so happy yeah he's my boy i really feel jack lang's gonna create a mini fiefdom of brazilian players here wait do you see who i'm picking next matched

Yeah, Gorincha, born with one leg shorter than another, twisted, one leg twisted in, one twisted outwards, won two World Cups back to back with Brazil. matched

And particularly in 1962, when Pelé got injured halfway through, he was the star of the show and one of the great World Cup entertainers. matched

I think that may be a stretch, but I'm happy with it. matched

But yeah, an amazing World Cup player. matched

I've got my little post-it note of relevant Golden Boot winners here somewhere. matched

Relevant? matched

Okay, Garincha is also taken by me. matched

Ronaldo is taken. matched

So my next pick, I was planning to actually have a defender, but not many defenders on this list. matched

Let me tell you that. matched

I reckon Oleg Selenko could keep it out. matched

Give it a go. matched

It's already to me looking a lot like Pelé will be playing off the front, which is fine because he did that very often. matched
