Tactical Draft
- Thread starter Šjor Bepo
- Start date
Yup to be fair, I don't know enough about the younger version to make a proper conclusion on that argument and had assumed he was always quite a showman in nature and therefore didn't see how he'd complement a Gerrard. It wasn't the only part of the side which didn't sit right with me but yeah it was a risky side put forward by you.
I am taking Ruud.

@The Red Viper
The problem with Gerrard was that he was neither good enough to be a game changer himself nor play with another game changer in the middle.
Feck right off!
Harsh again - the guy was the very definition of a match-winner.
Either keep the color formatting or scrap the first round blocks altogether @BorisDeLeFora
Didn't even notice... easier to scrap?
You'd be as well scrapping and inverting the order.

Hold on. I have some doubt!
So, the quality of the team doesn't matter AT ALL?
Or its also important along with the "main player" being used correctly and in a system which takes the best out of him?
Or its also important along with the "main player" being used correctly and in a system which takes the best out of him?
From the OP, team quality is secondary. If both teams have utilized their player correctly, then team quality comes into comparison.
Good Utilization + weak team > Weak Utilization + Good team
No clue how this'll work in a match. We'll just have to see.
As far as I can tell the quality of your player choices does matter, but it's secondary to using your main player correctly. IMO there'll be a significant overlap between the two criteria anyway. You don't maximise too many players' qualities by surrounding them with utter shite.
it doesnt matter if you are the only one that builds a perfect team. When the teams are very close on a tactical level the quality of picked players will decide.
Either i expressed myself badly or you misunderstood my post, that game isnt important as such but it did summed up mentality of a player perfectly.
What's the context for the quality? In isolation? I'm assuming the match dynamics will be different then - think this was the point @Chesterlestreet was making. Your Zidane up against my Bramble doesn't matter because we're not recreating an actual match, just two teams in isolation.
It will be a good old classic comparison of two teams, rather then debating who has the upper hand, does your right winger suit his left back etc. you will just compare the two teams in a non game environment, something that is happening since beginning of football and other team sports.
If it does come to the quality you will compare only picked players, who assembled the team with a better group of players. How you want to do that is genuinely up to you guys...
Yeah but you could cite the argument that Istanbul and FA Cup Final sum him up too.. if those performances were done by a United player, he'd be ranked alongside Best/Charlton.
BRUNO CONTI
check my first post on that matter and you will see that i didnt dismiss his achievements at his peak. This post you quoted was a response that is connected with Gerrard post peak version even though the hype was like when he was at his peak.

Great pick @The Red Viper
Agreed
Didn't really see the issue with it myself and felt Gerrard's dynamism would have complemented Prosinecki's playmaking ability pretty nicely.
Cheers, makes sense.

Can someone let me know why my image won't show?
Did you click the little "insert image" button? Next to the smiley face. Copy and paste your link into there.
Because Zlatan is injured and out of the picture.
Cheers.
I think he would thrive in the system I'm trying to employ!
Was really considering Zlatan as well but I wasn't sure how he would work with my franchise player.
The picture's ego is too big for Red Cafe servers to handle.
Just noticed Larsson in the blocked list... WHY
Regarding Gerrard, I think he is under-appreciated. If he were Brazilian or a former United player, he would have been more popular here
There are diverse versions of Zlatan so pretty versatile. Curious to discover your franchise player at the end of the process.
If your goal is to gain a lot of votes, let's say:
- you need to have an 'harmonious team' and avoid 'controversies' from a tactical standpoint. For instance, very challenging to sell a team with Deco & Zidane
- quality players / big names to attract voters of course

And Zola, he's not better than RVN or Ibrahimovic
EDIT why is Zola in the block list and dip pool needs to be changed
Seeing as it looks like I'm on my now, can I confirm I have to pick a player from the dip pool?
As a 25 times winner of the draft, your job is to provide answers, not to ask questions
This draft was aimed at getting new players/debates and a stronger focus on tactical considerations.
Some will punish teams whose 'team-building around a star' is disappointing and some will vote for the 'best team'.
