I think DDG's better personally, but I've always liked a great shot stopper. If someone thinks Courtois' better I'm not gunna give them much of an argument, they're extremely close.

Agree both great GK’s. I like my GK to controlling his area better, that’s all

De Gea ——————
—— Azpi, Christensen, Bailly —
Valencia, Pogba, Kante, Emerson
— Pedro, Sanchez, Hazard —

Hmmm playing with false 9 not a bad idea. But a number 9 would be a better fit for my system

It's more a philosophical choice than judging them on ability, cos both are also underrated when it comes to highlighting the other's strengths. DDG doesn't just sit on his line waiting for the opposition to rain on him, and Courtois doesn't exactly let any balls that come his way in.

Two world class players that happen to marginally outshine the other on a few traits of their position

-------------------DDG-------------
Valencia---Christensen---Azpi--Alonso
-------------------------Kante------------
-------------Fabregas------------------------
----------------------Hazard----------
Willian-----Martial------Sanchez

Screw balance !

That very attacking line up. Even Barca wouldn’t try this formation

That attacking line up is purely on the basis of watching a sluggish,dire United team this season.

De Gea

Valencia
Azpilucueta
Bailly
Alonso

Kante
Pogba
Fabregas

Sanchez
Morata
Hazard

Morata>Lukaku??

I like Morata,especially ahead of Lukaku,but I would probably opt for Martial as my lead forward.
He's certainly more composed than the Spaniard infront of goal.

IAmMe... I know you don't like DDG, but didn;t know it was a general dislike of all keepers

Problem with goalkeepers is they stop goals from happening.Why would anyone want that ?

Who needs a keeper when you’ve got an LWB of Kante’s quality?

Since it’s too hard to pick between the two, he left them out altogether

Courtois
Azpi Luiz Christensen
Moses Kante Matic Alonso
Willian Sanchez Hazard

His stupidity genuinely never ceases to amaze me. Outdoes himself with each post

Think the formation was more like:

N/A
Azpi Smalling Jones
Matic Kante
Mata Pogba Hazard
Lukaku Morata

So not really wing backs

-----------------DDG

Azpi----Bailly---Jones----Alonso

-----Cesc---Kante---Pogba

----Haz---Sanchez---Martial

4-3-3 ( false 9 )

Beast of a team.

DDG
Valencia Bailly Christensen Azpi
Pogba Kante Fabregas
Hazard Sanchez Martial

I stopped reading when I saw Courtois in goal
