I really liked this video, not because of the choices they made but because of the reasons they made the choice. Nowadays, everyone wants others to have the same opinion as they do and make the same choices which is absolute bigotry and some of the comments on this video saying the picks were "criminal" or "0 ball knowledge" (for pro players LoL) are proof of this. Everyone is allowed to make their own choices and have their own preferences. The best and most interesting part of the video was All the players had different reasons and parameters for the choices they made. Some liked strikers more so they naturally picked strikers or goalscorers over others, some liked strong, aggressive players so they picked more strikers or defenders, some preferred faster players and some choices were also made based on what the player meant to them. There are players that leave an impact on you, you might have some special memories related to them as a kid watching them play, they may have inspired you or they may be the reason why you started watching or playing football, so it's obvious you'll prefer them over a lot of other players. Some of the players also flipped some great players because they just didn't watch them play enough or watch them play live which obviously is a completely valid reason. You can also pick a player over another because they played for your favourite club, are an icon of your nation or maybe just your team mate or friend. Choices were also made based on what the players have achieved in their career or also made based on how entertaining it was to watch them play even if they had not achieved a lot in their career. You can pick whoever you want over anyone and no one should come at you for it since it's your preference and your choice, Some people need to learn this simple thing.
