@Marty1968

I think you should write something in each match-thread at the top to inform the voters that players should be judged by their performances in their assigned leagues. At the moment i think some players do and others do not benefit from voters not knowing this. Also, i'd suggest we add this next to the players to make it clear what leagues they are representing:

A wee nod to the fine Eintracht Frankfurt team of the early-to-mid 1990s... Tony Yeboah

Well done Gio! I was going to either pick Mijatovic or Yeboah, went with the former but would have loved to have taken him:)

I know this reply is a bit late but im only just reading through the thread:lol: I was very suprised to learn that he was one of the few black players playing in Bundesliga then.

Looking at all the top strikers not picked I wonder if some of yous could lf been braver, playing with 2 strikers. I blame LVG.

I think you're right. Having picked Nedved and Veron first, it was almost impossible to go with a conventional front two. I mean they won Serie A together in a 4-4-2, but that probably wouldn't wash here.

liked @Downcast and @KirkDuyt OP in the match thread, think i will steal the idea and do something similar if not the same:devil:

Regardless of how that match ends up, I think @Edgar Allan Pillow had a fair point there on making player profiles outside the match thread and with a link there, as otherwise it takes way too much space and makes the writeups too long to read.
 
Cal has officially abandoned me(jk seems he has some family issues, good luck to him). Anybody willing to help me out as I just glanced at @Aldo team and I don't know some players at all.
 
@Edgar Allan Pillow willing to work together? Your fighting spirit in your game amazed me :D. We'll be against Gio though. So big chance it's only for one game.

It could have been even more funny to include 1 or 2 players coming from the French or/and Portuguese League.

Have to say, that is my favourite pick from my team and complete credit goes to @The Stain for pushing for him at that early stage and specially considering the Bundesliga quota.

Is good. Thanks for pushing Candela over Pessotto, i adore him now. Needed a reminder there.. Also, our team, yes? :p
