The First Redcafe Sheep Draft

Just a reminder if anyone is underrating him because his a "current" player:



And check out that spanish midfield for his match:
Xabi Alonso, Bosquets, Xavi, Iniesta, ********(can't mention yet)/Fabregas

Shows both his defensive work rate and his incredible range of passing and wisdom on and off the ball
 
I think Pippa would be hard to beat, here. Not only does he have quality picks but he's picked players from two teams who played similar styles in a 4-4-1-1. Also has the combination and chemistry in his favour with proven partnerships.

Yeah that's true, but as I suffered on flesh, you can catch a series of bad picks and get a couple of sheeps and the entire team looks different.

Yep, he needs to keep going the same way, but so far it looks really good. Giggs, Gullit and Donadoni is quality both in terms of attack and getting fully involved in the midfield battle. Just looks a really hard to beat outfit.
 
This is sully's pick and we have had 0 consultation on it... So I'd like to wait
 
Do you reckon you can fire ahead with it later tonight if sully doesn't come on?

I guess. I can do the pick. Only issue is we have had 0 discussion. Position etc. - nothing has been discussed. Are you guys all up?
 
I'm sure he wouldn't mind you going ahead and making the pick yourself if necessary.
 
Great :) . I was getting nervous even though the chances that someone blocks my player are basically zero. But I really don't have a single backup choice, missing out on my pick would be a disaster, so I want to know now :lol:.

I'm absolutely SHOCKED at who we managed to snag. Laughing honestly.:lol:
 
Wow I'm shocked so many went for Thiago Silva there
 
I almost went for him as a safe second option, guess the thinking was the same for everyone.

I think that's probably true, I thought one defender in particular would get blocked here.
 
Pippa's loveletter to Thiago Silva in the thread about defending must have influenced quite a few of the managers here :lol:.
