WCCF 2016-2017 Unique Team - The Blazers (Croatia National Team)

The Croatia national football team (Croatian: Hrvatska nogometna reprezentacija) represents Croatia in international football. The team is controlled by the Croatian Football Federation, the nation's governing body of football. A FIFA-sanctioned national side previously represented the short-lived Banovina of Croatia and Independent State of Croatia in nineteen friendly matches between 1940 and 1944. This team was dissolved in 1945 as Croatia became a constituent federal republic of SFR Yugoslavia. In the period between 1945 and 1990, Croatia was ineligible to field a separate team for competitive matches; local players instead played for the Yugoslavia national football team.

The modern Croatian team was formed in 1990, shortly before Croatia's independence from Yugoslavia, and by 1993 had gained membership in FIFA and UEFA. The team played their first competitive matches in the successful qualifying campaign for UEFA Euro 1996, leading to their first appearance at a major tournament.^[3] In Croatia's FIFA World Cup debut in 1998 the team finished third and provided the tournament's top scorer, Davor Šuker. Since becoming eligible to compete in international tournaments, Croatia have failed to qualify for only one World Cup (in 2010) and one European Championship (in 2000).

Most home matches are played at the Maksimir Stadium in Zagreb, with some fixtures also taking place at the Poljud Stadium in Split or at other, smaller venues, such as Kantrida Stadium in Rijeka or Gradski Vrt in Osijek. The team was undefeated in its first 36 home competitive matches at Maksimir, the run ending with a heavy defeat to England in September 2008. The team's traditional nickname is Vatreni ("The Blazers").

The team was named FIFA's "Best Mover of the Year" in 1994 and 1998, the only team—along with Colombia—to win the award more than once. On admission to FIFA, Croatia was ranked 125th in the world; following the 1998 World Cup campaign, the side rose to third place in the rankings, making it the most volatile team in FIFA Rankings history.

There is a special national team KP for Croatia National Team, バトレニ or Vatreni (The Blazers). Hence, it is possible to make a squad full of Croatian players. And here it is! Note the players chosen below are based on the best overalls and best position that suits all of the players available.

Best Player By Stat : Luka MODRIC & Ivan RAKITIC (94)

Worst Player : Joey DIDULICA (69)

Summary :

Another team that is very recommended to be used. Goalkeeper with skill of PK saving which could be used for penalty shootout. Decent wingbacks, good both at defending and going forward. Great center backs duo. Amazing midfields with Rakitic and Modric controlling the ball movement while Boban and Olic endlessly running down the wing. Decided to put Boban on the wing so the team rating will be higher with two upfronts, which is Suker and Boksic. Suker ready to be the fox in the box while Boksic penetrating through the defence with his dribble.

Subs bench also pretty decent, Mandzukic is ready to settle things down if needed, while Perisic will be useful to add some pace within the team while put down the wings. Kovacic covering the role of both Rakitic and Modric, legend Srna to fulfill the wingbacks position, and Kovac could also be used everywhere in the defensive part

WCCF 2016-2017 Unique Team - Los Cafeteros (Colombia National Team)

The Colombia national football team (Spanish: Selección de fútbol de Colombia) represents Colombia in international football competitions and is overseen by the Colombian Football Federation. It is a member of the CONMEBOL and is currently ranked seventh in the FIFA World Rankings. The team are nicknamed Los Cafeteros due to the coffee production in their country.

Since the mid-1980s, the national team has been a symbol fighting the country's negative reputation. This has made the sport popular and made the national team a sign of nationalism, pride and passion for many Colombians worldwide. Colombia is known for having a passionate fan base.

Colombia had its strongest period during the 1990s. A 1993 match resulted in a 5–0 win over Argentina which began a special "mutual respect" rivalry between both nations. The goalkeeper René Higuita achieved fame from his eccentric scorpion kick clearance against England at Wembley Stadium in 1995. Stars from Colombia's team included Carlos Valderrama and Faustino Asprilla. During this era Colombia qualified for the 1990, 1994, and 1998 World Cups, only reaching the second round in 1990. Following the death of Andrés Escobar after the 1994 World Cup, Colombia's team faded in the latter half of the 1990s. They were the champions of the 2001 Copa América, which they hosted and set a new Copa América record of conceding no goals and winning each match. Prior to that success, they were runners-up to Peru in the 1975 Copa América. In total, Colombia has gained a top four result in seven Copa Américas. Colombia was the first team to win FIFA best mover in 1993 where the achievement was first introduced and the second team after Croatia to win it twice in 2012.

Colombia missed three World Cups between 2002 and 2010. During the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifiers, Colombia showed improvement over the 2011 Copa América, bringing its rank up to the top ten for the first time since 2002 and into the top five consistently for the first time since 2004. After a 16-year-long wait, in 2014 Colombia finally returned to the World Cup, where they were able to advance to the quarterfinals, the furthest Colombia has ever made it in a World Cup. Colombia's midfielder James Rodríguez won two awards, the Golden Boot for most goals (6) and Best Goal of the Tournament.

The 1962 FIFA World Cup match against the USSR finished in a 4–4 tie after Colombia had been down 4–1, making it one of the biggest comebacks in World Cup history. In that game, Colombia had also scored a direct corner kick goal, also making it the only direct corner kick goal in World Cup history.

There is a special national team KP for Colombia National Team, ロスカフェテロス or Los Cafeteros (The Coffee Grower). Hence, it is possible to make a squad full of Colombian players. And here it is! Note the players chosen below are based on the best overalls and best position that suits all of the players available.

Here is the full squad :

Best Player : Carlos VALDERRAMA (100/84) (categorically) / JAMES RODRIGUEZ (94)(statically)

Worst Player : Oscar CORDOBA (81)

Summary :

First of all sorry for putting the wrong Cordoba card. Fortunately, both the black card and the foil has the same KP and overall so it doesn't really matter, it will always be F regulation

This is team is very recomendded to be used. They have everything in all position. A goal poacher up front, speedy wingers, genius playmaker, well-balanced midfield, good fullbacks and deadly duo in the heart of defence. The goalkeeper has a good speed so could be good as a Libero Keeper.

On the bench, Bacca and Asprilla are ready to score the most needed goal. Asprilla is on the bench because he could be only be used as forward or right wing, hence Zuniga take place as the left winger, although his original position is left midfield. 

WCCF 2016-2017 Unique Team - La Roja Americana (Chile National Team)

The Chile national football team (Selección de fútbol de Chile) represents Chile in all major international football competitions and is controlled by the Federación de Fútbol de Chile which was established in 1895. The team is commonly referred to as La Roja ("The Red One").^[3][4][5] They have appeared in nine World Cup tournaments and were hosts of the 1962 FIFA World Cup where they finished in third place, the highest position the country has ever achieved in the World Cup. Since the mid to late 1960s, the Elo ratings ranks Chile among the 25 strongest football teams in the world.

Chile are the reigning Copa América champions; after winning 2015 Copa América on home soil, it successfully defended their title in the United States in the Copa América Centenario in 2016. Prior to this, Chile had been runners-up in the competition on four occasions. As a result of winning the 2015 Copa América, they qualified for the 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup.

There is a special national team KP for Cameroon National Team, ラロハ or La Roja. Hence, it is possible to make a squad full of Chilean players. And here it is! Note the players chosen below are based on the best overalls and best position that suits all of the players available.

Here is the full squad :

MF Matias FERNANDEZ (13-14 Regular Card / ACF Fiorentina)

MF Marco ESTRADA (12-13 Regular Card / Montpellier Herault SC)

Team stat :

Overall : 1385 Points / 86.6 Points on Average

Regulation : U-5R

KP : ラロハ

コンビネーション攻撃と各々人につく守備が特徴

Combination attack and character defensive for each person

Best Player : Ivan ZAMORANO (100/90) (categorically) / Alexis SANCHEZ (93)(statically)

Worst Player : Jorge Palacios VARGAS (77)

Summary :

There are only 2 defenders available for the Chile team, it is also included Medel who already converted to MF in the recent yeras, so it is actually only 1 defender available. So, 2 of the defensive minded players have to be converted to CB and 3 at the back is the only option available. It is not that difficult to figure out the rest of the positions.

Worth to try. Although lack of defensive players, Chile has an awesome midfield, dangerous wings and lethal striker. The midfield is well balanced with Vidal bossing the mid, the wingers are completing each other, with Alexis can provide the cut in and Isla can close down any wingers try to penetrate the left area. Zamorano is good with his feet and his head, so both delivering crosses or through pass will work.

The bench, not too bad, although there is no defender available to select. Estrada is good with freekick, if an injury time freekick is needed. Salas is ready from the bench to turn things up.

WCCF 2016-2017 Unique Team - Les Lions Indomptables (Cameroon National Team)

The Cameroon national football team, nicknamed in French Les Lions Indomptables (The Indomitable Lions or Untameable Lions), is the national team of Cameroon.

They have also won five Africa Cup of Nations titles.

There is a special national team KP for Cameroon National Team, 不屈のライオン or The Indomitable Lions. Hence, it is possible to make a squad full of Cameroonian players. And here it is! Note the players chosen below are based on the best overalls and best position that suits all of the players available.

Here is the full squad :

GK Idriss KAMENI (12-13 v2.0 Extra Regular Card / Malaga CF)

LB Henry BEDIMO (12-13 Regular Card / Montpellier HSC)

Compact, systematic defense and passive work that players are actively move (similar to Tiki-Taka)
Best Player : Samuel ETO'O Fils (95)
Worst Player : Idriss KAMENI (75)

Summary :
It's a fun squad to use. Eto'o as the main threat up front, decent trio midfielders that all can win the ball, nice defends with Matip leading the line, and killer wingers with pacey left side and never-ending right side. On the bench, Mboma ready to change things when the team needs to and all of the subs cover many important things in the team so they all are going to be used

History[edit]

The first major version of the game was based on the top division of Italian football, the Serie A, and was released in Japan in 2002.^[1] The teams included were those that participated in the competition during the previous footballing year; the player data being based on performances during that 2001–02 season. An updated version of the game was released in 2003 with gameplay fixes/adjustments also added 32 black/white and 13 foil player cards.

With the success of the game, Sega went on to produce a second major version of the game, again devoted to Serie A, that was released in 2003.^[2] The teams and players included were those that participated in the 2002–03 season. As with the 2001–02 version the 2002–03 version was also updated several months later to include gameplay updates and additional players consisting of 32 black/white and 43 foil player cards. The 2002–03 season version of WCCF was the first version that was released outside of Asia by being made available in Italy.

After a brief hiatus, Sega's next major new version of the game was released in late 2005.^[3] This time, the game was not dedicated to Serie A and instead was based on the top divisions of four countries in Europe: the English Premier League, Dutch Eredivisie, Spanish La Liga, and Italian Serie A. The teams included in this European Clubs version of the game was based the 2004–05 season and Sega started distributing the game more widely outside of Asia; the countries included the Austria, France, Germany, Greece, Spain, the UAE and the UK.

The successful expansion of the game was followed by a sequel to the European Clubs version in late 2006.^[4] This time, the game included teams from six countries in Europe: England, France (Ligue 1), Germany (Bundesliga), Netherlands, Italy, and Spain, with footballer data based on performances from the 2005–06 season.

The game has further expanded to span two continents (Europe and South America) in the Intercontinental Clubs 2006–07 version released in 2008^[5] but the it ceased to be distributed outside of Asia.

The game is subsequently updated with yearly versions in Japan.

Player Card[edit]

As mentioned, there are over 1,000 different cards in the game. Some players have different versions of themselves in the game. Player cards are classed in four different types of cards.

The first type is a White card. This type of card carries a standard player; for example, Igor Tudor of Juventus. He would be considered in the game to have normal wage in the game and have the abilities of an average player in the team.

The second type of card is a Black card. This card carries a better player, such as Michael Owen or Ronaldo. Their wages in the game increase but their skills increase as well.

The third type of card is a Foil or known to the WCCF community as a "shiny". These carry the superstars of the footballing world. When held up to the light, the card's background changes colour. Each grouping of cards have different coloured frames to show the different classes of player.

There are plenty of versions of Foil cards reaching as far back in the game as the 2001–02 season. These cards appear less in the game and are more rare than a black or a white card.

The fourth and most precious of cards is the Legend and All-time Legend cards. These cards are very rare and feature some of the best players ever to grace the game of football. These cards carry huge wage bills, but they also have very rare qualities in playing the game. Just like the foil cards, the Legend and All-time Legend cards are considered to be "Shiney" with a mainly gold appearance to the card. Once again, when light hits the cards at a certain angle, the colour changes slightly.

Game structure[edit]

The game follows a schedule with teams playing league format broken up by complete cup tournaments. The game originally consisted only of one league division but the season 2005-2006 version introduced a second and so the requirement for promotion; promotion is given to a team in the first 2 positions in the league.

To enter the International Club Cup a player must have earned 1 or 10 million of the local in-game currency. To enter the Champions Trophy and Continental Cup require a minimum finish in the top 4 or 6 positions respectively in Regular League 1. Participation in the Japan Trophy requires the winning of the Champions Trophy, the Continental Super Cup requires the success in the Continental Cup and the National Super Cup requires winning the King's Cup. Entry into the U-5 Championship requires a team following the U-5 regulations.

All of them has their own cards ! Standing ovation for the German NT !

Here is the WCCF team based on players above. Noted that not all of the players included in the squad because WCCF could only had 16 players in the team

Formation

Low is pretty successful with the 4-2-3-1 formation, he also used 4-2-4 in some matches with the front man being a second striker, usually Gotze.

Goalkeepers

Neuer. Do I have to think or explain about it?

Defenders

It's pretty hard to choose because the Germans called many center backs in the squad, but remember in one match in WC, he used center backs to fill the fullback role and it's proved successful. So, for best effect, I choose Howedes, Hummels, Rudiger and Boateng. In bench, Mustafi could fill every position in the defense. There is also Can who could be deployed as right back.

Midfielders

The current WC holder has lots of talents in the midfield. I pick Schweinsteiger and Kroos in the middle of the park, Basti can help with defense while Kroos connecting defense and offense. Wingers, Gotze and Schurrle will do a great job down the wing. Ozil is no doubt their no.1 play maker. In bench, I have Draxler as a sub for the winger, Khedira for the center midfielder role, and Can for his versatility, he could fill the center back, right back and midfield role.

Forwards

No doubt Muller will fill this position, good in the air and good making plays also. Podolski is ready on the bench. I left Gomez because I feel Podolski is similar to Muller, while Gomez could only be deployed as target man.

Overall

There is no doubt this is a very balanced team that you ever met in history of football. Germans have every player in each position, even the bench or not selected players above could fill the role easily even if the starting XI won't perform. But actually, in my opinion, their wing backs aren't the greatest. They are good in defense but I think they couldn't offer attacking movement that much. Missing Lahm already?

Prediction for EURO 2016

They will finish the group easily, yes. They will scrap through the first round and semi final easily, yes. But, in the semi final they are likely to meet France which will be a very hard fought battle. Since France is pretty strong in their home soil, I think German will finish the tournament in the Semi Final. Or maybe they can replicate Spain's success bringing back to back international trophy?

So, that's it. I hope you enjoy the squad and my prediction. How do you think Germany will go?
