I see you don't put Neuer and Lahm there just because you are a Dortmund fan,its your opinion and its ok.But the reality is that their the best RB and goalkeeper..

Lahm? ok- yes he might be better. But I think Piszczek is better at crossing and he is faster. Hard to say for me.
Neuer? No way. There are even better GK in Bundesliga.

Piszczek better at crossing than Lahm? No way. And I'm saying this as a Pole. He's faster but Lahm isn't slow either.

Which goalkeppers are better than Neuer in your opinion?

In germany? Rene Adler. And Weidenfeller got fewer mistakes then Neuer and better reflexes. But Neuer is better as a playing Goalkeeper with his foot.

Btw. last Season Piszczek scored 4 goals + 14 assists (in 53 games). Lahm 0 goals, 20 assists (in 54 games). Piszczek played half a season injured and Bayern was way better in Bundesliga.
2011/2012: Piszczek 4 goals 12 assists in 54 games. Lahm: 1 goal, 5 assists in 58 games

But all in all you are right. Im Dortmund fan and hate Bayern. So I cant be objective. This is football. There are always discussions about teams and players. This is one point why we love the game, right!?

My World XI.

Neuer

Lahm (Alves)--Ramos (Varane)--Thiago Silva (Barzagli)--Alba (Alaba)

Xavi (Pirlo)--Busquets--Iniesta (Ozil)

Di Maria (Suarez)--Messi--Ronaldo (Ribery)

No subs for Messi and Busquets because they're in a class of their own in their positions. Di Maria in the starting XI because he has outstanding work-rate and is atleast top 5 in the world in terms of chance-creation.
Glad someone else acknowledges how good Di Maria is his work rate and chance creation is top class.

Falcao
Ronaldo --- Iniesta ---- Messi

Vidal --- Schweisteiger

Marcelo -- T. Silva -- Barzagli -- Lahm

Neuer​

I regret not to put Ribery and Robben neither, but there are too great champions nowadays
I regret also about Xavi, but that formation it takes a strong midfield line, reason for what I didn't put Pirlo either

So, I was thinking about how teams would look like if they were done continent-based. UEFA XI vs CONMEBOL XI for instance...

My SA team would look like..

___________Rafael______________
Cuadrado___T.Silva___Godin___F.Luís
_________Masch__Vidal_________
ADM_________Messi________Neymar
____________Falcao_____________

vs

___________Buffon________________
Lahm____Hummels____Chiellini___Azpi
_____________D.Rossi____________
________Modrić_______Reus_______
Robben_______Lewa______C.Ronaldo


I like to see more line-ups on this theme..

I made one 1.5 years ago on this thread:

South American XI:

Caballero
Alves-Thiago Silva-Dante-Marcelo
Mascherano-Vidal
Di Maria-Messi-Suarez
Falcao

European XI:

Neuer
Lahm-Ramos-Hummels/Barzagli-Alba
Xavi/Pirlo-Busquets-Iniesta
Ribery-Ibra-Ronaldo


As of today, I would go with your lineup, with the following changes:
Suarez for Falcao
Schweinsteiger for Reus
Ramos for Chiellini.

Edit: Oh and of course, the very obvious change - Neuer for Buffon.

Ramos, despite his attacking aerial prowess, is too erratic as a pure defender.
Reus is undroppable for the versatility and the goal threat he carries. His presence allows for diff. in-game formations. On that note, when some posters want us to pass up on Reus because we've X,Y,Z on the roster. My reaction = :satorra:
It was between Falcao and Suarez for me. I went with the more likable option. Now come to think of it, with Cheillini there, Suarez makes more sense.
I don't rate/like Manuela. So you can say some of my selections are biased. But replacing Buffon with Manuela willl also be more fun..

How I think the match 'd unfold..

A high-octane all action packed blockbuster. Both teams coming close to finding the net. But being denied by keeper heroics, both sides. The match tied goal-less enters injury time. Ronaldo wins a fk on the left wing. Cristiano thinks its in Cristiano's range, and tells off the li'l Croat. As the world watches with baited breath, Ronaldo lines-up his shot. The ball flies in (almost), but is headed out by Godin. The ball finds messi, and he's on his magical run. There's no stopping the li'l dictator, until he sights the (un)godly giant frame of Manuela outside the box. The world stands still, Leo takes a pause, and spots the emerging figure of a Tarantula next to him. He squares it to Cuadrado. And its game. set. match to TeamLatino.

Winner be like..

Loser be like..
