That's a strong side - the addition of Griezmann's a good one and I wonder how close Bentancur would have got to the team if he hadn't got injured.

I did quite like Sabalay of Senegal at Right back and would be tempted to include him as a bit of a left-field pick instead of Hakimi - although Hakimi won more tackles than any other defender in the tournament (joint with Kovacic on 17).

Whilst I'm also not sure about Otamendi, Gvardiol is the only stand out centre back that I can think of. Harry Maguire would've been up there if Giroud hadn't nicked in front of him for the winning goal!

I would like to take this chance to start a sort of challenge of people sharing their own best starting eleven from the World Cup. So, I nominate @blanchy and @blockchainfpl. Create your own and keep the ball rolling.

I love the idea but I'm all about FPL again now 🙂
