Auction-Trade Madness Draft-SF: Raees/Invictus vs. Pat Mustard

[Enigma_87]

Couldn't vote on this one but both teams were setup spot on given their roster and opposition. Probably Vidal on for Coluna is a better fit for R/I but apart from that not much to add. Congrats @Raees @Invictus on the win - well deserved.

@Pat_Mustard Contrast to the last game I really liked this one mate. Zmuda and Buchwald were never going to get much joy in terms of voters but I really like that defensive set up and them and KHF dovetail nicely with each other. The set up and the 5-3-2 on show here really set the stage and gets the best out of the Ro-Ro duo - hence that's a job well done given that was your theme from the off.

Congratulations @Raees @Invictus great team.

Thanks mate, much appreciated. Harsh on @Pat_Mustard .. thought you done a cracking job in RI with turning that into a super-competitive side.

Thanks mate. I was very happy with the line up for this match and I think the 5-3-2 was the best possible tactical option against this uber-strong opposition. I'd gladly put together that Zmuda/Buckwald/Forster defence again too, although Zmuda and Buchwald really needed to be sold better on my part and I was too lazy this time.

Cheers mate and congrats to you and @Invictus on a well-deserved victory. I've got to admit my heart sank in the first reinforcement round when you got Chumpitaz for 50m and especially Rivera for fecking 30m and I was powerless to do anything about as Enigma and I were busy fecking each other over on Dani Alves and Marcelo . That strengthened an already excellent team to the extent that you could very credibly argue in this match that you had the best GK (Neuer), defender (Figueroa), midfielder (Masopust), playmaker (Rivera) and forward (Pele), so I had a mountain to climb really.

I laughed this morning when I went on my late posting rampage as the voting was still quite close, only to immediately ship 3 or 4 votes and seal the victory for you..."How To Win Friends and Influence People" by Pat Mustard

Haha.. Jesus that last bit we have all been there. For me the worst one was our semi v Gio with that uber strong NT draft side and spam fest just kept seeing more and more votes drift away.

Aye, that was superb and possibly draft-winning business.

I was willing someone to sabotage that Rivera bid but it never happened. Aye, it could well have sealed the draft for them as they look the strongest of the four semi-finalists at this stage IMO.

Aye, it doesn't do much for the self-esteem when every post you make only serves to convince everyone to vote against you.
