Sent, off to bed.
Dammit Jairzinho could've been mine
Bottom to top seems a reasonable order....Going to scrap the pick 3 idea and just run a snake after this round.
Starting from snake rounds, managers who make any invalid pick will be assigned sheep at the discretion of draft mods
As though you are the only oneSorry.. I caused this Will pay more attention

Pnut, nooooo
Why would u not go for Matthews though with Kocsis and Czibor already nabbed and star player still available.
I am actively revolting in the committee thread to make this more manager friendly, but green smiley is acting like red smiley
Probably because I am crap at this game and am unaware why exactly that would have been a great idea
Nah, I am just the insecure uncle that wants kids to like Matthews
I was a bit torn between going for Garrincha/Jairzinho and risk another Matthäus situation or just play it safe. Robben felt a bit safer than Matthews and I felt there was a decent chance still of Matthews being blocked. You were right, I am a coward Still happy about the Kocsis-Czibor pairing and was sure I could satisfy your post-war muppetry with thatNah, I am just the insecure uncle that wants kids to like Matthews

Cheers, having a lot of fun so far Too bad I got the wrong Mazzola for your tastesJust to add, Robben ain't no nut either and deserves his name in the all time wingers list.
Just realized you have Mazzola too. That is already one of my favorite attacks so far
I got Matthews so i'm happy he didn't go for him.Nah, I am just the insecure uncle that wants kids to like Matthews

Yeah, I am honestly struggling a bit with sensibly piecing together my team. This is my first draft and I really have a lot to learn about a lot of players and additionally do not have a huge amount of time. It is fair to say I did look for names a bit because I don't know enough yet to focus on the synergies. I am always glad if you point out mistakes I make/would have made so I can learn. GSTQ already explained to me why Matthews would have been great and now I'm sadMight add that Matthews is a different kettle of fish to both Garrincha and - especially - Jairzinho. So it really depends on how you want to use 'em - as much as how how highly you rate 'em as such.
Garrincha is obviously - well, Garrincha. But Matthews and Jairzinho are very different if you consider 'em as wingers.

Will try to do that more. Was on the phone for the entire weekend though and if you have 20 players you want to get to know that can be a bit lengthy of a process. Granted, for the ones I did actually consider picking it may have made senseThe best way to get an idea of players is search for player name vs (eg. Garrincha vs) on YouTube.

I’ve genuinely tried to go the unusual way, but pretty much every non-harms pick had been blockedNot exactly innovative drafting on my part - based on previous drafts, I mean. Tardelli is - possibly, not sure exactly - the only one I haven't picked before. Greaves has been my backup plan for - I dunno - at least 3-4 drafts now, I should think.
But fair enough - done and dusted, and pleased enough with the haul.
It would’ve been interesting to build a team around Cristiano. I think I’ve only picked him once before (funny thing is that I’ve won that draft, but didn’t like my final team).
Usually i pick a theme before and try to go for something fun, this time im picking players like i would if this was somehow played for real
Me too, I pick a theme and run with it. Just picking the best players doesn't interest me that much.
3-4 left@P-Nut @green_smiley Many still to submit picks?
