Auction Draft QF3 : VivaCrappy vs Annahnomoss

[Annahnomoss]

Yeah we were planning on starting with:

Chilavert
Lahm Rio Ayala Lizarazu
Matthaus Redondo
Boniek Riquelme Conti
RVN
​

Than Crappy suggested(what I thought was a superb idea) to play this formation. I still think it was the better idea. I think if we kept Lucho and played him instead of JRR we could've done this counter better, but both of us wanted to sell. I think these were our mistakes. Anyway, Annah you are a superb drafter and a worthy winner. Expected it to be tighter but knew it was a tough matchup. Well done.

With Lucho and no man marking you would have won it I believe, and that original tactic looks brilliant as well. Cheers for the compliments you guys are brilliant too which is why I wanted to see you lot in the final. I think you guys had a master stroke of a draft collecting all those players, in that regard you guys won the draft.

It is very easy to fall slightly off with the tactics, seeing a favorite pushed out of the side as he doesn't perfectly fit the tactics - then you play him and get called out on it and so forth. Or just wanting that vote-winner on the pitch, but not really being able to getting the best of him but you try it and hope he's not called out too harsch.

Yeah viva/crappy created a really good team and with those quality non TP names, they looked the real deal, the scoreline is indeed surprising. They also didn't have the luck of the draw, faced a really strong team of Sammer's Hammer earlier and now yours. They both put in a great effort which should be applauded.

No sour grapes but bar your and Annah's side, I think we would have done over the others.

I hope crappy doesn't mind I didn't vote but this was far too one-sided to pile on and I'm sure you don't want sympathy votes.

Mind, I would have voted VC if they had started Rio-Tigana-RvN instead. In fairness, it only crossed my mind halfway through the game anyway as I kept thinking inside the box (i.e. keep MVB on the pitch).
