Default The Nationality Challenge!

So we all remember the popular 1/2 star challenge thread?
Here's a new one. It can be a competition. Pick a country and try and get the best squad possible for them. In a MM. BY THE WAY THE AMERICAS IS NOT A COUNTRY!!!

Rules
-You can transfer up to 5 players in before start of MM (for rival problems etc.), but as many as you want out. These all ned to be the correct nationality (no Messi for England to sell)
-The scouts must be exact (no Bolivians in your Brazilian squad)
- The team DOES NOT have to be the same nationality as the nation.

I choose SPAIN! my team is VALENCIA

5 in: Santi Carzola, Fabregas, Sergio Ramos, Casillas, Fernando Torres


Should we make this a challenge where everyone tries to make a different country?

Just have a team of one nationality. You can transfer 5 players of that nationality to your team before your MM

I'm going to try and put this one together, though they'll need a bunch of training...

GK - Tim Howard/Brad Guzan
D - Frankie Simek
D - Neven Subotic (the game came out before he switched countries)
D - Jonathan Bornstein
CM - Michael Bradley
CM - Maurice Edu
LM - DaMarcus Beasley
RM - Abdus Ibrahim
CAM - Freddy Adu
ST - Landon Donovan
ST - Jozy Altidore

I should be able to train all of them to 85 or higher. Howard I think can go higher than Guzan, but I worry he'll age faster than I can boost him.

I'll probably take Man Utd to make it as easy on me as possible, since I'm at a big disadvantage over the Brazils and Argentinas... The good news is I shouldn't have any problems buying everyone. No rivals and other than Altidore are all pretty cheap.

I checked and there's nobody so good that I have to have them, and it's a little more fun playing with the real life guys. Having Freddy Adu dance past guys in particular is a lot of fun.

Mostly you just have to train the lalalala out of the above and they all turn out good enough. Adu in particular can get up to about 93.

*bump*
I changed to Australia. season 6
Blackburn rovers

GK:J. Kerr 86ovr

RCB:Jamieson 74/D.Lucas 77
CB:G.Hudson 82
LCB:G.John 79

RWM:H.Warne 84
RCM:J.Culina 80/79
LCM:J.Wesolowski 75/N.Kilkenny 77
LWM:R.McLachlan 93
CAM:T.Cahill 86

ST:S.McDonald 89
ST: D.Williams 89

I cant remember my bench. My best reserve scout would be Guinan, who is a ST at 80 currently, he can hit 91 with training, but only 85/6 without training. Kerr Is so easy to boost. He is meant to be at 70 ovr but in the last four seasons i've put him up 26 ovr from a normal 11 ovr
