War is Sparta, We are Spartans. We are War!

Joaquin Vidic Kovac Cole

Sneijder Gattuso Ribery Ronaldo

Klose Ibrahimovic

One has also to look whether the players can be play together. Do their style can be put together?

It's like Gerald and Lampard of England, it's not possible to put them both on the field!

Siege of Tobruk - One German POW said: "I cannot understand you Australians. In Poland, France, and Belgium, once the tanks got through the soldiers took it for granted that they were beaten. But you are like demons. The tanks break through and your infantry still keep fighting." Rommel wrote of seeing "a batch of some fifty or sixty Australian prisoners ... marched off close behind us—immensely big and powerful men, who without question represented an elite formation of the British Empire, a fact that was also evident in battle."

I'd take the German team and put Cannavaro, Ibrahimovic and Van Persie. Guaranteed success.

EDIT: Oops, one per country? Then I don't know. Really, most players on this level are quite alike. There are only a handful that are really outstanding.
