@Aldo
 


What a goal this is.

@RedTiger
Depends on the player really. Most of the top ones are gone now, though.

I spent last day reading how you prefer Netzer over Overath :lol: Decided that I needed Albert more

That doesn't say too much about Overath though, I just rate Netzer a lot. A lot lot so to say. Albert is a fantastic pick, would have loved him in my team.

My main worry with Overath was whether he would be doing the same job as Van Hanegem.

Yeah, I rate both very highly and it's obviously takes some player to keep Netzer out of the team

I remember theon saying he was partnering Gio too? Unless this with gio is something else entirely.

Yeah, missed that it was posted - I answered not about me but about Theon and decided not to post it (but the drafting system decided differently)

Ahh alright, although you three in one team would have been great too. The writeups would have rivaled some of jogas best efforts.
 
I don't know whether I am going to be on-line when it gets back to me. Is there anyone I can leave my picks with?

I'm not sure to be fair. Gio and Theon compliment each other perfectly and adding another guy to the mix will only feck with the synergy. Plus I find that me and Theon are looking at the game differently some times.

Do they always work together?

Great pick. Should make a fantastic pair up front and hopefully Greaves has a good run here.

Thank ye, sir.

I wasn't sure about picking him, as there's a distinct chance of missing out here on certain players, in certain positions, beyond whom the pool contains very little in terms of names you can expect to sell without too much hassle.

But feck it - I never wanted to use Pelé as the main striker (even though I easily could have), but rather have someone else - a pure finisher - play in front of him, allowing him to sit deeper. So, rather than waiting and digging up some half plausible man who would work in that role, I went with the Rolls Royce choice instead - knowing well, of course, this means I have to settle for some non-Rolls players further down the pitch. That's fine, though - I'm going offensive this time around, no question about that, really.

How come Theon doesn't have his name on the wrapper then?

Doe everyone have people they converse with?
Click to expand...

Should be on the wrapper, yes - @Aldo needs to update the OP.

Second question - you mean loosely or in the shape of an actual AM or co-manager? The latter - no. I've never had one, not my style. The former, I think most do to a certain degree - getting a bit of feedback, throwing around a few ideas, but more casual like.

I've "worked with" Annah and joga before, but @Pat_Mustard and I have been doing the last 3 or 4 drafts together. It's a bit more fun with someone along for the ride and to converse with. Plus I think with all three, we've had similar outlooks so it makes it a bit easier too.

I have a similar thing going on with @The Stain which has been really helpful. He recommended asking Antohan for info on players but I can't seem to PM him for some reason (Possible ban?).

How does an AM type partnership work? Does one of you have more control then the other? Or is it just giving advice and bouncing ideas off of each other?

You can leave it with me if you want. I'll just post it after mine. Unless you want someone who is after you to have it instead :)

I don't know. I don't want to give anything away.

I pity the poor bugger who gets drawn against a strikeforce of Pele and Greaves.

I think anto asked for a temp ban? Could be wrong though.

id say we both have equal control. We both partake in the match threads, and will sometimes switch off on the write ups etc, but it's really just a joint effort. We check ideas with each other on players, tactics etc.

That's fine. It's better that someone after you would take.
