OK. But remember (for the 2 attempts that you still have) that you
don't have to pick all the players from a single team! :)

Let's start with passing ("s*g" means "skill*greatness", "s" means
"skill alone", "sum" means "sum of your points so far", "record" means
"sum of the entry to beat at this point of the team"):

> RB: Oddo

s*g: 0.50 sum: 0.50 record: 0.65
s: 0.70 sum: 0.70 record: 1.00

> CB: Onyewu

s*g: 0.25 sum: 0.75 record: 1.26
s: 0.35 sum: 1.05 record: 1.85

> CB: Bonera

s*g: 0.48 sum: 1.23 record: 2.05
s: 0.65 sum: 1.70 record: 2.85

> LB: Zambrotta

s*g: 0.51 sum: 1.74 record: 2.64
s: 0.65 sum: 2.35 record: 3.20

> DM: Ambrosini

s*g: 0.57 sum: 2.31 record: 3.35
s: 0.70 sum: 3.05 record: 3.75

> DM: Pirlo

s*g: 0.82 sum: 3.13 record: 3.76
s: 0.95 sum: 4.00 record: 3.75

> AMR: Abate

s*g: 0.39 sum: 3.52 record: 3.76
s: 0.60 sum: 4.60 record: 4.65

> AMC: Seedorf

s*g: 0.64 sum: 4.16 record: 4.25
s: 0.80 sum: 5.40 record: 5.10

> AML: Ronaldinho

s*g: 0.72 sum: 4.88 record: 4.91
s: 0.90 sum: 6.30 record: 5.90

> S: Huntelaar

s*g: 0.53 sum: 5.41 record: 5.44
s: 0.65 sum: 6.95 record: 6.70

Very good indeed! You are now on top of the skill-only ranking:

Skill*Greatness
5.44 Futbolmetrix Injury Proneness
5.41 Diabolik Passing
4.97 The Scrutineer Injury Proneness

Skill only
6.95 Diabolik Passing
6.70 The Scrutineer Injury Proneness
6.60 Futbolmetrix Injury Proneness

I'll compute Milan's passing score later.

No problemo. I just wanted to see how Milan perform, knowing that they have
skills like passing, but are old!:)

If Nesta was here it would have been a lot better!:)

Will anyone be able to beat the Devils?
