Freeness: Select the Sexy and Win
This contest is now closed. EXI reveal coming shortly!
After nearly a year in the making, our Elite XI squad is ready.
Sure, it’s all a little anti-climatic now since we’ve dragged it out so long , but let’s keep going, shall we?
We thought it would be fun to have a competition for our readers to guess which players we’ve chosen for the team. The reader that gets the most number of names correct will win a copy of Grant Wahl’s The Beckham Experiment
Unless you’ve been locked inside Selfridges for the last month (lucky), you’ve already heard plenty about this book. It’s the one that caused Landon Donovan (who now has H1N1 flu, btw) to fall out with Becks. They’ve since made up. Or so they say, anyway.
All you have to do to win the book is tell us who you think made it on our squad. Not who you want on the team, but who you think we’ve chosen. We’ll give you some hints: we’ve gone for a smorgasbord of men; there will be some surprises; they all are comfortable removing their clothes in public.
Please leave your answers below, contest closes at 11.00 EST on Monday August 17, when we will throw up our choices for 2009. If two readers leave the same (correct) answers, we’ll be holding a mud wrestling tie-breaker to determine the winner. Have fun!
Hey now, that graphic looks great! Iker at the back. *giggles* The Ramos–Canna–JT–Maldini Stevie–Cesc–Lamps–Becks Nando–Roque Leonardo calling the shots. I'm crap at this. I wanted to throw Totti in there, but he's the kind of magician you organize your formation around. Doesn't really fit into the 4-4-2. Canna & Maldini will have to represent for the Italiani.

Okay, I’ll give this a shot, too! My midfield might not make the most sense, but I was trying to keep in mind the ‘frequently shirtless’ factor! lol Manager: Mourinho Goalkeeper: Iker Defenders: Ramos, Vidic, Terry (John!), Glen Johnson Midfielders: Gourcuff, Ronaldo, Totti, Beckham Strikers: Torres, Henry I almost chose Frank instead of Totti, but he’s not often shirtless and it would have been more MY pic than yours!
