    What is the team you think would best match Barcelona if you could form an XI from other club teams? I think:

    Neuer
    Lahm--T. Silva--Vidic--Evra
    Pepe--van Bommel
    Banega
    Sanchez--Ronaldo--Eto'o



    No Inter/Hercules/Arsenal team sheets please.

    They would and they'd dominate you, Vidic and Lucio will be doing nothing as Messi drops back into midfield and there's no-one to link your midfield and attack.

    Ramos-Kompany-Thiago Silva-Lahm
    Pepe
    Yaya Toure-Schweinsteiger
    Sánchez-Eto'o-Ronaldo

    I'd be wanting a quick defence, a midfield full of battlers who can burst forward too then the front 3 pretty much speak for themself.

    Alonso to do his amazing passes to sanchez or ronaldo. Pepe/essien to take care of the midfield.

    they got this.

    I haven't, I think he's overrated big time and his passing is poor but he'd suited to what I'd want in midfield for the one off game.

    didnt Portugal crunch Spain somewhat recently? I can probably think of a better midfielder though like maybe Yaya or Schweinsteiger as you put. I think Meireles is classy though.

    You need players who can dribble through that wave of pressure, keep a cool head, pick the right passes and not lose the ball. Man Utd had only one player who could do that (Rooney) and thats why they were useless. Also pace hurts them.

    -------------Ronaldo--------------
    Suarez--------Rooney-------Nasri
    --------Wilshere--Alonso--------
    Cole----Vidic-----Lucio----Sagna
    --------------Cesar-------------

    What about this one?

    Arshavin----Nasri-----Walcott
    -------Wilshere-Fabregas-----
    Clichy--Koscielny-Djourou-Eboue
    -------------Szczesny---------

    People who think you need "battlers" to beat Barcelona are idiots. Its players who are good with the ball, not without it that are effective against them.
