Antohan-formation-tactics.png

Subs: Moreno Torricelli, Andreas Möller and Robin van Persie

I could reinforce with:
  • Anyone from Brazil, France, Spain, Uruguay and most of Italy and England
  • Arsenal, Barcelona, AC Milan, Inter Milan and smatterings of United, Real, Liverpool and Dortmund
 
Generally weekend is always tougher for me as I'm off the laptop and only on phone. Have a busy schedule this month but I can be involved on weekdays or bridging the timezone gap during the time @mazhar13 is unavailable if @Physiocrat is ok with it. Middle of the week is probably what I can do best as Friday and Monday are generally the worst days in terms of free time.
 
@antohan Does anyone block Möller in your XI? If not, I'd probably prefer him in the Nedved role (or roughly that), with the latter replacing Kewell.

Yup, that's the same thing I was thinking, though I can see why he'd put Kewell in there as Kewell can inject some pace, quickness, and directness into the side. Möller does that too but through the middle, whilst Kewell doing it from the inside left will leave ample space for Benarrivo to cause havoc.

I rate Möller highly, though. cnutish as they come, but a top, top player. Kewell is alright but a notch below for me, so the move would boost the overall quality of the outfit (for me). Plus, you get Nedved in arguably his optimal role.

I think Nedved - RvN was the main inspiration for creating the team, so he's unlikely to change it, even though I would've preferred Nedved - Möller too

No, no one does. I'd agree it's more attractive, I never expected Möller to really last that long and I picked him way earlier than Kewell for a reason.

However, it's the theme that calls for Kewell. The motivation behind the side was wondering about how good we could have been with Nedved instead of Veron. No shoe-horning, no going continental, just our usual 4-4-1-1 with Nedved behind the striker.

Kewell also makes a better Giggs than Nedved would (in fact, everyone here wanted him to replace Giggs).

This. Nevertheless a good problem to have ;)

I see - a Fergie model with Nedved. Then it makes sense, certainly - haven’t followed the thread at all, to be honest, so I was just looking at the team sheet and the roster.

@mazhar13

How about Wednesday then? I'd prefer a midday GMT start if possible. What time works for you?

Wednesday....Well, if Enigma's okay with it, I'm okay with it as well. However, it'll be most likely that Enigma will be the active co-manager whilst I sit back and be like Rui Faria.

@Downcast we meet again :)
How do injuries work now?
Click to expand...

Yeah but this time, I won't be provocative. Good luck to you and @Edgar Allan Pillow

I understand injuries occur during a game after 8 hours: between 0 & 2 injuries per team.

I can come here only after 7pm time UK in the next days so I'd prefer next Saturday or Sunday because a tactical change is required 8 hours after the start of the game.

Got a relatively light week ahead, so I can play whenever you like @P-Nut0712

Monday? Can get my write up done tomorrow and start the day after. I'm on nights so a bit later kick off would be better for me. Around 12/1pm?

I won't be that active over weekends and mostly outdoors. @VivaJanuzaj can choose timings here, I suppose.

You sure can't do weekdays? Weekends usually don't attract much interest and discussions.
 
P-Nut v Tuppet: Monday 5th
