[Snow]

Something wrong with your pick. Guido is obviously an Italian slurr. Picture and name can't match. Too stupid.

 

[Crustanoid]

Where are we with this? On works do so no time to check. Is it my turn anytime soon?

 

[Team Brian GB]

Not at the rate we're going no.

Its ok I'm Italian

 

[Nani Nana]

bollocks. Baggio would have been your 1st pick

 

[Snow]

Ok. My pick is John Sanchez

Come on!

 

[IBleedRed]

bollocks. Baggio would have been your 1st pick

Italian American
but mostly German American so my first pick does make sense (plus the first player's availability I checked was The Kaiser's)

 

[Snow]

So you're a fascist nazi capitalist

Thomas Häßler
One of the best free-kick takers of all time with 101 caps for Germany, lifting the World Cup and European Championship in 1990 and 1996
He was also the outstanding player of Euro 1992 and was third placed in the FIFA World Player of Year award that year. Two times German Footballer of the Year in 1989 and 1992.

Twat. You ruined my Pallister - Bruce dream team.

 

[Polaroid]

Guys if you will be away for some time, please PM your pick to the managers who are picking after you. Starting from the 6th drafting round, the time allowance will be cut from 12 to 6 hours. If you are not able to check this thread regularly, you are encouraged to recruit a assistant manager.

 

[Polaroid]

less than 3 hours left for Cal? to make his pick before the draft skips to TheHorse'sMouth

 

[Cal?]

SOrry guys, long Fri night...

5. Careca

 

[Brwned]

You're an absolute bastard. Was sure he'd slip right through.

6 hours can get difficult with the time differences. What if you're assistant manager doesn't make it in time or your pick has been taken?

 

[Brwned]

Could just establish what time zone each person's in? Means that people will know who to PM when they're heading off to bed as they'll know who's awake at that time at least.

 

[Nani Nana]

has KM picked Romario yet?

 

[TheHorse'sMouth]

Jorginho

 

[Brwned]

Have people started to decide whether they're going for a 352 or 442 variant yet? I'm still not entirely sure I know how to fit players into a 352 because it's been so uncommon since the turn of the century - if I stuck someone like Beckham out there is it a waste? I've seen a lot of hardworking wingers out there but it just seems strange to play with no fullbacks, essentially.

 

[TheReligion]

I have got two good keepers, infact brilliant keepers, that havent been mentioned..

PM for details

 

[Brwned]

I've got two good German ones.

 

[KM]

One of the greatest, if not the greatest African Players in history.

 

[TheReligion]

Fake Pele
