Surveillance Draft

These reinforcements are such a turn off, most players I wanted are still in it and the best releases tend to be United/Dutch and thus blocked by Ruud :(

@Joga Bonito already looked better with that sexy setup of his and now the gap is probably even bigger as I'm picking squad players despite having huge flexibility :annoyed:

@Pat_Mustard @Šjor Bepo
 
Yes, he has to make a double sub. My point was that he can't have both of them if a player gets injured, which is somehow limiting options available on the bench.
It was 1am in the morning and I Had no time during the day I'll make it work somehow

There was nowhere to go with a 4-4-1-1 which could be hardly improved upon :(

Upgrading marginally to a more continental than direct style with Nedved-Möller-Laudrup replacing Kewell-Nedved-McManaman. Laudrup rules out Petrescu, but no Alves as he would block 2-3 players I'm more interested in than what he has on Srna.

Do Srna and Laudrup have much on Petrescu and McManaman? Not really, not at all actually (I'd rather had kept Petrescu), but I may as well get further depth of options and not carry whatever irrational dislike people have for McManaman. Nah, nothing irrational about not liking him, the irrational part is underrating him.

A rather underwhelming reinforcement round overall.

Shadowwanker 1. Nedved 2. Schweinsteiger 3. van Nistelrooy 4. Ayala 5. Petrescu 6. Essien 7. McManaman 8. Benarrivo 9. Moller 10. Van Persie 11. Bonucci 12. Torricelli 13. Kewell 14. Navas 15. Laudrup 16. Srna

Antohan-formation-tactics.png

Subs: Moreno Torricelli, Dan Petrescu, Harry Kewell, Steve McManaman, Robin van Persie
 
Yeah, we had the same problem.
The only upgrades I can think of to our team are the CBs. Maybe Sheva for Shearer, but I personally prefer Suarez-Shearer to Suarez-Sheva.
I'd take Giggs over one of your wingers, probably Pires as he is a better fit with Shearer and Suarez, imo (and a better player even though it's arguable)

Was just going through the teams and Montero - Henry looks like they have played together at Juve @oneniltothearsenal . Telling you just in case you overlooked, so we don't have more eliminations via fielding ineligible teams.

Could everyone do me a favour and check their QF opponents team to see who, if any can't play with each other? Hopefully this will avoid the problems of the last round
 
It depends on the playing 11 imo. Most teams have players to have played with each other to be used as subs. It's the manager's job to ensure no overlaps.

It does. All I was wanting to do would be to provide a check of overlaps that's all to avoid what happened last round.

Remember everyone, you have to name a three man bench. You can't use all your squad as subs.
 
@green_smiley

Can you set up mine and Tuppet's game tomorrow please?

When asking a for a poll be clear to ask for publically viewable votes and the option to change votes
