Who Will Make Your World Best 11 Of 2016? by Bekwarra(m): 1:54am On Dec 31, 2016
The year will end in a few hours. The year 2016 has been an interesting year particularly in the world of sports with football not left out. There were several interesting and iconic moments in football this year chief among which are the Euro, Copa America, UCL, Club World Cup and the major league competitions. Not to bore you with these competitions and how they unfolded, I want to move to the outstanding players of 2016. Many great players enhanced their reputations this year, some disappointed woefully, some careers were rejuvenated while many others broke through.
I want us footballer lovers to pick our best eleven of the year being players we think have been consistently good in the going year. This does not dwell on reputation but performance at the club and national team level.

How It Goes
I'll nominate 5 players for each position on the pitch using a 4-3-3 formation except the Centre Back positions where I'll nominate 10 as most of them can play in either side of the Central Defence. You'll pick one player each from each position (2 from CB) to form your team.
Thus, there'll be a goalkeeper, Defence - a right back, 2 centre backs, a left back, Midfield - a defensive or holding midfielder, a central/box to box midfielder, a creative midfielder/playmaker, Attack - a right wing forward, a left wing forward and a number 9.

NB: My nominee list is subject to your whim as you may go outside it to pick your nominee. Please follow my format for clarity sake.
