Looking at cross-overs, or lack thereof, there should be some absolutely stunning picks in the last few rounds.

Absolutely. Strange draft with very limited competition.

There's abundance of attackers. I was looking for a side backs for a back 3 and dang, there are none! Forced to play a back 4 :(

Ruggeri (won the WC in that position) and Ayala (played as a RB) are more than qualified to play LCB and RCB. The absence of a great libero is a big one though, with Passarella gone.

True on the attackers though

Good point. He's new so just trying to give him some advice.

In fairness to you... mine could very easily be a 4-4-2. A bit too beige for me though and I always prefer something more unorthodox.

Hum... I admit a 8-1-1 is harsh.

So you think he would deploy a 7-1-2?

Argentina was a strange choice. A few exceptional players but severely limited in many positions. Looking at some of the attacks in this draft Pat is going to find it hard with his defence.
