I just thought I'd do a Fergie with the Valencia at RB thing and put Bale there as a wingback - kind of Alves style fullback.
Bale & Mata up against Coleman should be fun...

New Fantasy Draft Final - Discussion
- Thread starter Cal?
- Start date
some of you speak so that you would think that the shit full back who was in the team would defend any better than Bale. Bale can do anything the shit full back could, and do it twice better. The only minus of this move is not fully utilizing the Bale attacking threat.
And i cant really believe you criticize Cal? for having heart and guts to make brave move. Of course he could have played it safe. Trade one of his world class mid-fielders for an All Star and have a slight almost unnoticeable improvement. But the next game is the FINAL. His opponent destroyed opposing teams in every match so far. Cling is like Barcelona of this fantasy game. Cal? could have became the next victim, or he could have tried to do something to change the balance of power. And that is what he did trading his worst player for a NUMBER 1 pick of the draft. Yeah it took some changes in formation moving EPL player of the year to a wing back position. But now he has MATA and Bale running at Clings weakest link. It may backfire and Cal? loose the match anyway, or it may have be what was needed to snatch an unlikely win. In any case i applaud Cal? for having the guts to go all in, and take a stand.
Alves is a good defender, Bale is not - massive defensive weakness in your team now as far as I am concerned.
It is pretty clear that you have just tried to shoehorn in as many big names as possible, but it seems to be at the expense of having a balanced team. Could be a big mistake.
Well, if Valencia can be deployed at fullback, I don't see why Bale cannot. Also, I thought Bale will deal with Walcott's pace better than Rojo.
Valencia is an emergency fullback - he has never started a game there. Plus he is more solid defensively than Bale anyway
yeah sure rood. man played full back all his life, switched to winger for last 2 years. and now according to you he couldnt defend to save his life. have you even ever seen Rojo? Because i doubt that more than 5% of red cafe did. or just according to you any name of any random footballer would be better fullback than Bale?
Bale is a terrific Full back, and would have went on to become one of the world greats. But his attacking potential was too great to waste making him defend.
Any fullback would be a better fullback than Bale
Now now, compare him to his opposite player S Coleman on Cling's team...
Ready whenever, Cal.
What is your match prediction Cling?
First goal Bojan.
But his goalscoring record is worst ever. Looked at wiki he scored 7 goals in 40 appearances this season. Not really a striker you want to bank on during Final match
By the way if you compare Bojan record to Chiharito. You would get that Bojan Goal/appearance ratio is 17%. While if we take Chicharito record at the grandest stage of all - international football 17 goals in 24, you would get his ratio being 71%. And i shouldnt even mention that to score international goal is 10 times harder than to score in La Liga playing for barca.
I just checked, it's better than Cameron Jerome and Emile Heskey's, this season.
So maybe his record is the third worst ever?
Or, you don't know how to control yourself from exaggerating and spouting shit in every post?
dude you dont have to take very word literally. by saying "worst ever" i mean "not great"
Message sent to Dr. The poll should be up when he's free.
What a game this is going to be. Totally unpredictable. Good luck to both sides, even though Cling is mean old man who tries to insult me at every opportunity. let the best team win.
How am I supposed to take each word then?! If the words don't hold their true meaning it's difficult to have any understanding of anything.
May I have a go anyway?
My team is the best team ever.
But I really just mean its very good.
You seem intent on insulting my team a lot and most of the time it's ridiculous.
Dude that just aint true. i never insulted your team, all i said about it is that Bojan aint that good. And if you compare him to the stars of the final game like Di Maria, Ozil, Busquets, Pato, Wilshere, Bale, Subotic ... he is 2 levels below those guys. And he aint prolific goalscorer to lead the attacking line by himself. That is not unreasonable claim.
And like 10 posts i above i said this "Cling is like Barcelona of this fantasy game. " . I dont think its possible to give a bigger praise than that. So i have no idea where you are coming from with saying that i insult your team.
Cling certainly Barcelona'ed my team
You lacked motivational skills to inspire your team. They gave in way to easily
It was difficult as I don't speak German or Spanish and my translator was hit by a runaway cherrypicker right before the match
I'm going to wait for Cling Bak to send me his tactics, then I'm ready to post up the final.
FAO Cling Bak...
FAO Cling Bak...
what does FAO mean? i googled it and got Food and Agriculture Organization. guess that aint what u meant.,
For the Attention Of
he's running scared!
Cling is the Harry Redknapp of fantasy drafts he dosnt need any tactics
This.
The lads know their roles by now, I trust 'em to go an have a top, top game.
Right then. I'll start the match in a couple of hours.
So, with the final underway, we can look forward to the Supercup between the mains winner and the newbie winner.
How would be the best way of going about it?

i want post season awards
That can be done if there is enough interest, but how should we go about it?
Best 1st round pick, best 2nd round pick, etc, best replacement pick?
i think its unnecessary to go for all the picks. Like just a single a Pick of the season, game of the season, manager of the year, best replacement is good idea. we can also do it for worst pick. and come up with more categories.
Sounds okay, let's see if there is more interest in this thread first, after all, there are only about 40 regular voters in the whole draft.
I've a fair idea who'd win the worst pick award.
CW?i expect my Lewis Holtby to be a front runner for best one
A reminder of how the teams were picked...
