Methodology

Team profiles are constructed from stats on Fifa.com. Attacking strength looks at the number of goals scored by your team and the average number of goals scored by teams your midfielders and forwards have played in. Defensive strength looks at the average number of goals conceded by teams your defence and goalkeeper have played in. Discipline looks at total red and yellow cards. Experience looks at how many tournaments your players appeared at and how many appearances they have made. It's just a bit of fun. We don't expect to see international managers using these methods in their team selections.
