Is Martin Demichelis too stupid, too honest or a combination of both?
We admire the Argentine’s bravery in sticking to his instinct when naming his dream five-a-side and not kowtowing to the pressure of keeping his Manchester City teammates onside.
But we don’t know kindly City fans are going to take the fact that Demichelis actually picked more Manchester United players in his team than teammates from the blue side of the city.
The centre-half picked United midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger in his side but completely ignored any of his club teammates.
Demichelis picked Oliver Kahn between the sticks and went for Argentina legend Roberto Ayala as the solitary defender.
Lionel Messi partners Schweinsteiger in midfield while Demichelis has selected the relatively unheralded Fernando Cavenaghi over Sergio Aguero up front.
This will go down well.
