Whaaaaaat!!! How did Laudrup not get picked in round 1? Assumed he would've been one of the 4 that got through. Happy with my pick.

Yup, thought going for him but was sure he’d get blocked. Same like Eusebio.

Aaaah Chester damn you! Thought everyone would focus on outfield players so he might've sneaked through.

Almost worked too.

Tricky round, though. Probably would've paid off to be less cagey - Laudrup not going in the first round indicates as much (surprised by that, was sure he'd end up on the blocked list straight away).

In fact, it may turn out I could have been less cagey with my second pick too - but I'm happy enough, got an old favourite.
 
almost went the Yashin route as well but the pool was too good tbh

Those were Yugoslavia which as I clarified earlier in the thread was to be considered a separate nation to Serbia for the purpose of this criteria.

Serbia is absolutely different to let's say Ukraine or majority of other countries as it is seen by their list of appearances with FIFA where they have 12 already.

Just saying, it really doesn't bother me in terms of the pick. More with Fifa tbh.
 
got to the 1911 final and i thought surely not much more, then they say its the 40th FA Cup final :lol: not going down there, have a free pick from those @GodShaveTheQueen
 
Clarification: Both the Old Wembley and New Wembley can be used for eligibility in this round

It has to do with which modern federation is considered to have "inherited" the place (within FIFA - and thus FIFA history) of the old super states (Soviet Union, Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia).

Serbia is considered the "successor" of Yugoslavia (more precisely the Football Association of Serbia is considered a continuation of the old Yugoslav federation). Ditto for Czech Rep. (Czechoslovakia) and Russia (Soviet Union).
 
What's the crack with the teenage dream bit? Do they have to be a teenager when they scored?
