All-Time Fantasy Draft

[antohan]

Vidic or Kocsis?

Wouldn't mind Kocsis on a late pick, which was never going to happen.

But I have Rio FFS, how dare you?

 

[antohan]

Vidic and Mcgrath were the partners I had in mind for Pasarella. So close. feck. going to need some time to find another one.

Passarella and Vidic, straight from the Theon school of bizarre defensive partnerships.

 

[Theon]

Haha yeah true, though you could go the Gio route from the last draft and get Campbell.

I'm more gutted about McGrath, not that arsed about Vidic but McGrath would have been perfect for Passarella.

 

[Theon]

Passarella and Vidic, straight from the Theon school of bizarre defensive partnerships.

No!

I told him not to get Vidic, dunno why he is pretending otherwise now. We would never have got him!

 

[NM]

No!

I told him not to get Vidic, dunno why he is pretending otherwise now. We would never have got him!

I wanted him. Whether you liked it or not. My favorite player. and the cnut took him!!!

 

[Theon]

I wanted him. Whether you liked it or not. My favorite player. and the cnut took him!!!

I would have pursuaded you

 

[NM]

After careful consideration,

Ricardo Carvalho

Passarella - Carvalho. Tough as nails, skilled in the dark arts, and comfortable on the ball. With Thuram on the right, my defense is already hard as nails. Try getting past that!

 

[Theon]

No doubt Anto will have something to say..

[Fergus' son]

Good pick is Hierro.

 

[Brwned]

I'll be having Marius Trésor. Desailly's physique with Blanc's class mixed into one marvellous defender.

[Theon]

Hierro was one of our options but wouldn't have worked as well. You playing him in defence or midfield Cutch?

 

[NM]

Good pick is Hierro.

Considered him - but didn't think he would match up with Passarella well.

I would have loved Brwneds pick too, but couldn't because of the country rule.

 

[Thisistheone]

Lot of centre halves just went!

 

[EDogen]

I am glad I picked a central defender (Desailly) last pick because all options I wanted is now gone. Tresor the last one.

 

[Cutch]

Hierro was one of our options but wouldn't have worked as well. You playing him in defence or midfield Cutch?

Thinking him for centre half. Distribution and leadership outstanding and is a ridiculous goal threat (has he still more international goals than Torres?).

Also maybe provides a more robust midfield alternative to Tigana depending on the opposition.

 

[Theon]

There is still a few, one in particular is world class.

 

[Theon]

This thread is just the ultimate procrastination for me. feck sake. Need to log off.

 

[NM]

Me too- but not until we finish the list we discussed!!

ps = put Carvalho in google image search and click on some of the alternatives. You will not be disappointed.

[Fortitude]

I'm surprised... some of the players that have been taken made it into an all-time draft.

Not going to name names - just an observation.

Teams are starting to come together now.

Seems like some people have a plan of action and others are playing it by ear.

 

[Isotope]

Not bragging at all, but in terms of partnership, my duo Santamaria and Hansen is at least the top three of this draft.

 

[Fortitude]

On another note, Valderrama is the most interesting pick of the entire draft thus far for me.

Very curious to see how he'll be utilised when that team is complete.

 

[JakeC]

Not bragging at all, but in terms of partnership, my duo Santamaria and Hansen is at least the top three of this draft.

Stam Maldini is class.

 

[Isotope]

Loads of versatility and great combination play there. Some even say Finney was the better player than Matthews although I suspect that has more to do with Finney having the wider range of skills than him being a more dangerous player. Looks great.

Thank you. And they all three are good goalscorers. For a winger, Matthews is very highly rated (top 2-3 in all time great). Surely need good fullback to halt him a bit.

Nicely shaped. Zico obviously the star but nevertheless a strong team player to complement Hagi's individualism. I had earmarked Finney and he will provide an orthodox wide threat while being sufficiently multi-faceted to contribute across the front line.

Thanks. It's nice to have two players that is capable as playmaker. Both Hagi and Finney are two footed that can play either wing, or in the center. Even Finney used to play as striker, too. It's a dynamic attacking midfield. Don't know if voters could see this, though.

 

[Stobzilla]

Was Maldini a centre back ?

 

[Fortitude]

Was Maldini a centre back ?

For the last 7 years or so of his career.

 

[Isotope]

Stam Maldini is class.

Both are the same type. But still one of the best duo, nevertheless.

 

[antohan]

[JakeC]

Was going to go for Costa, cunnnt

 

[Thisistheone]

MJJ is even more attacking than me!

 

[NM]

Edit.

Told you so

Spoiler

Your doing it wrong.

 

[Brwned]

MJJ's just given his first-round opposition a free pass straight to goal and straight to the next round.

 

[antohan]

Your doing it wrong.

Just fecking about

Not going to name names - just an observation.

Agreed. Some of them are already dead.

David Luiz and Titus Bramble are not THAT bad!
