The Athletic FC Podcast · World Cup Draft: Picking our Best XIs ever... with a twist · 4 Jun 2026 podcast

There are options. matched

Javier Hernandez scored at three World Cups, but I'm pretty well served up front. matched

Same would apply for Landon Donovan and Clint Dempsey. matched

And so it comes to me between two players who won a lot of longevity, Andres Guardado, who's played at five World Cups, but he's not... He just doesn't have the status for me. matched

Whereas this player, maybe... matched

Maybe this is more vibes than quality, but there's a place for vibes. matched

So I will go for Jorge Campos, who played at two World Cups, 94, 98, was in the squad in 2002, made some fantastic saves, obviously a very storied career, scored a lot of goals. matched

Those kits. matched

Yeah, those kits, 94 in particular. matched

Yeah, that'll do it for me. matched

There are so many really good striker picks, I think. matched

And I think Sanchez maybe not, maybe his best wasn't at the World Cup was my kind of judgment on that. matched

I mean, I'm just going to stick to type and I'm going to say Nilton Santos, who won it twice for Brazil, widely regarded as one of the top 10 Brazilian players of all time, nicknamed the Encyclopedia because he knew so much about football. matched

Are you happy with that? matched

Nilton Santos. matched

There was another Santos on the other flank, which I could have gone for, actually. matched

they don't need to worry okay Jack left wing is looking interesting now because I yeah there are a couple of players that they're both Brazilians as well uh matched

Yeah, I actually think the options are relatively limited there. matched

Or do I pick a right or a kind of a central player who can play out there? matched

Which would be slightly against the spirit of the exercise. matched
