Oh no, no no no, not these two 
The First Redcafe Sheep Draft
- Thread starter Moby
- Start date
And we kick off the draw with the first fixture. Pele picks up the chit that has an Aussie's name in it and Diego has gone with a former Barca manager.
Jayvin vs Thisistheone

And they go again. Pele seems to look in a fruity mood while Diego wishes he had the weapon written in the chit in his hand...

Jesus. First out the hat.
Good luck Jay
Good luck Jay
Oooh this one is interesting. Former friends turn foes. They know all about each other, including scenes from when they took showers together as manager and assistant.

Poor Crappy, couldn't have faced a worse opponent with his rightback sheep.
The favorite vs the only one still with a sheep in the first team! Boo!!!
reapeat of last draw with polAnother interesting one, here we have. The German tactical visionary against the veteran.
Balu vs Polaroid

This will be the match to look forward to. Wow brilliant matchup
Looks like Pele and Diego have put another set of acquaintances against each other, but this time it is the nostalgic CM experts...
Stobzilla vs antohan

Ffs, first he blocks Matthäus, then no one blocks Redondo for his 3rd stage pick and now I have to play his team. Nightmare. Good luck, @Polaroid .
.That is brilliant 343 vs 343?
We have crossed the half way line in the draw and the next one has a rookie facing up against David Moyes (no offense) of drafts.. Will the Scot finally get a win under his belt after constructing tough to beat sides again and again or will the rookie steal the show?
Chesterlestreet vs Gio

I still think I should win though.
My front two compliment each other perfectly as opposed to his. All my players are used to playing in 442 as opposed to his. My midfield pair is better as well. I also think both dessaily and Silva would be better off with a vidic type in defense rather than each other. Giggs will be a huge vote winner ofc but pires was immense for 4 seasons straight.

They are very different formations - stobz is more of a 5/3/2 IMO
A big cheer as Pele draws the chit, seems like this one's a crowd favourite. Coming up against the cold and calculating duo which made us watch paint dry at the end of every round.
Cutch vs sullydnl
Cutch vs sullydnl
And to round off the draw, another duo that were never shy to be doubly careful before picking every player facing a lower division veteran plying his trade at the big stage for the first time.
MJJ vs VivaJanuzaj

Harsh? Gio won the last but one draft didn't he?
Did he? In that case that was definitely harsh.
Harsh? Gio won the last but one draft didn't he?
Gio has won just about the most on here IIRC - he won the PremierLeague one, the Champions League one, and possibly one of the decade ones we did.
Ffs my memory is taking a toll on me.
Sorry Gio, I change your status from David Moyes to Sir Alex Ferguson of drafts.

Typical Pele balls up for the draw.
Well played Aldo!
Brilliant job again Aldo. Some great match-ups. When do we start the games?
I don't mind starting Monday.

Yeah 24th is fine with me
The other routine is the same. Player Profiles go in this thread. Tactics and formations go in PM. Remember not to put anything in quotes in PM so that I can quote the content.
I really liked the 2 games a day schedule in the last draft, no need to drag the first round out over two weeks, imo. I don't think there's less activity in the games when two are played at the same time, I actually enjoyed to follow more than just one game.
Bloody hell, Here I was wondering about the new Le God french superstar, I never heard off. duh.
Edit: It would be fun if you got matched up with @Pippa
No please
I can't take on his wall of texts.
Giggs vs Xavier
Donadoni vs Djimi
But it's unfortunate that Crappy has to reduce Vieira to just a holding midfielder in his team. He was always capable of much, much more.
I called it!
Agree with this.
True.
Although we do have the dreaded international break after this weekend so I don't think many would mind having it spread out a little.
Let's see what others say, I have no problem in starting two matches at the same time.
Agree
We can draft reinforcments and play the next round during the dreaded international break
.Oh and why the feck is there another international break inbetween the legs of the CL ties? That's complete madness, whoever made that decision should be shot.
@AldoPaine18 will the reinforcements also be in sheep mode? Three fails means a previously discarded sheep is allocated as the reinforcement!
Edit: It would be hilarious

Nah from here on everything like we have seen in previous drafts.I've checked again and it seems just one day of friendlies and not a proper break so thank god for that.We can draft reinforcments and play the next round during the dreaded international break

Yeah I guess two games a day would be better.
