My team is starting to come together, going to have to get some creativity in there, I have a few names in mind, as well as some fullbacks.

---------------GK
RB---Maldini-----Stam---LB
---------Deschamps
------CM-------------CM
Law--------Ronaldo-----Gento

I'd pick the CMs first and fullbacks last Jake.

Good luck explaining why Denis Law out is out on the right, you'll need it!!
 
Law played as a center forward, and an inside left, so I may have to change things around to a 442.
 
I might push Law back just behind Ronaldo as a center forward, with Ronaldo as a 10.

---------1
2----5------6----3
------4-----8------
7----------------11
--------9
----------10
 
Might as well play Gento at left back and Stam in nets.

Doesn't leave you much flex to bring in more creativity like you wanted IMO. You'll need another DM atleast and your right sided player will have to have a degree of discipline too.

Also I think you've got Law and Ronaldo the wrong way around.
 
To complete a formidable central defensive partnership is Paul McGrath

Can't change mate, I already ruled on that earlier. It can get very messy otherwise.

Fergus'son's turn.

Great pick anyway and one Fergus'son would be happy to nab I think.

No worries at all, can't complain with a central defensive partnership of Nesta-McGrath!

Or could go 3 at the back.

:lol: This is exactly when it starts getting interesting mate. Fewer players to pick, nationality constraint, so you start fecking about with tactics to make it all work!

The one thing I would say is you should consider that you don't know who you will face. There's nothing wrong with going three at the back in some games, but going blindly into a knockout without fullbacks...

I would make sure I can still play a back four if needed.

PS: I had Law as an option and was actually surprised you took him. It had to be a 4-4-2, but don't think you picked Deschamps and Gento for that.

Well we also have 13 picks so there is time to fix things up if needed!

That's my point. He can now choose to prioritise the building of a 4-4-2 or a 3-3-2-2 (or whatever he is thinking). But he shouldn't leave the draft without a rightback (assuming out of the central three Maldini would slot in on the left).

In both cases he needs a creative CM and a right-flank option that works in both scenarios. Then there's either the other CM and third CB/sweeper, or the rightback. He can and should pick for all positions, that's my point, just needs to decide on priorities.

PS: That's exactly why I made it 13 and not 12 picks, because with the nationality constraint a spare sub slot would be handy in these situations. He could well go for a rightback and a third CB from the same nation since he is never going to play both at the same time.

I realized he was still there, and just had to.
 
Yes you must have a plan of what you wanna get, I agree! Pick number 12 and 13 can be very important regarding who you will face later.
 
Kocsis is a great shout, unreal goal record internationally.

Nah i'm sure he's got Gary Kelly earmarked for that
 
Vidic and Mcgrath were the partners I had in mind for Pasarella. So close. feck. going to need some time to find another one.
