Chain Draft (Main Thread)

Netzer seems to be a drafters favourite. I've not watched him play, any suggestions of games where he shone that i should watch?

Another question; had anyone had Amancio in a draft team before i had him in the EURO draft?
 
Holy crap, didn't know that Amancio still played with Netzer. That's one hell of a route @Šjor Bepo picked. Awesome attack, really looking forward to where you go from here.

Euro 1972 is probably the easiest starting point and shows him at his best :drool:. The quarterfinal/playoff win at Wembley and the final against Russia are in full on youtube if I remember correctly.

I'll look in to that, cheers!
 
The Serie A picks to go in the next round is where it's all going to get very interesting. Every fourth round pick so far, except Bauer, has gone in that direction. And a few more to come.
 
I knew @Cal? joining would feck me over when he picked Robben. I thought Cannavaro was going to be a safe pick when I made my second pick because of the path Stobz was going down. Give me a few mins to reevaluate and make a new pick.

I hope you suffer! Had to rethink the entire draft strategy twice because of you :(
 
The next few rounds are going to be carnage.

Haha very much so. I am not sure where Sjor would have gone had EAP followed Breitner with Netzer.

Tried a route that we now know was ineligible. We were mighty relieved EAP went with Ruminegge

Why don't I get any of these breaks? :annoyed:

Just sitting around waiting for the inevitable curtailing of all my best options courtesy of smiling Skizzo (sorry Pat, but I can see those two matching up really well on this showing).
 
I have just completed a couple of chains.. if anyone takes my players I am taking my ball and I am going home.
 
Is there any club restrictions guys?? For eg if I had picked law first charlton then edwards... edwards didnt play with law so is that ok but the united connection continues??
 
Two things which confuse me a bit:

What's the deal with invalid picks? Do people simply make adjustments themselves (see above)?

The Eurocentrism. What sort of tournaments are considered legit for South-American players? Nationwide leagues are a relatively modern concept within certain federations.
 
I was winging it for a bit hoping someone wanted to come in and play.. now I have to kinda put chains together.. I have done a few.. so should be decent
 
Crap...my next couple of picks are going to determine whether I end up with a decent team or a horrible one...I have no idea how I can get out of this pickle I put myself in...
