The Modern / Current Players Draft

[Chesterlestreet]

Yeah, with how current United players look like I can see why some people avoid them

Aye. They may be equally tainted - and in some cases even more unpopular among the voters!

 

[The Red Viper]

The reason I picked Terry is because even if I don't win this shizz, at least one of my players will lift the trophy!

 

[Stobzilla]

Fell asleep for a bit longer than anticipated lads. Sorry.

 

[Chesterlestreet]

The reason I picked Terry is because even if I don't win this shizz, at least one of my players will lift the trophy!

Aye - he'll be waiting in the wings, full kit wanker style, and run up to anto (a.k.a. Blatter) to grab the cup regardless of who wins it.

 

[Cutch]

I think they don't compliment each other too well, but I guess most strikers will find it hard against them though as they are both quick and agile

I wouldn't call Hummels quick, but I do rate them as a pair with the pool in this draft.

[Stobzilla]

damn it!

 

[Skills]

Damn, finally a draft which isn't tailored for the caf OAPs and I miss it.

 

[VivaJanuzaj]

Nice pace lads, lets keep it up

 

[MJJ]

Arturo Vidal

@The Red Viper

Are you on a mission to steal my picks?

 

[Cutch]

Essien's a cracking pick for 3rd round

 

[MJJ]

Damn, finally a draft which isn't tailored for the caf OAPs and I miss it.

Wanna be my scout?

@Isotope

 

[MJJ]

@Stobzilla why did you change my pick to boateng from essien?

 

[VivaJanuzaj]

Essien's a cracking pick for 3rd round

Wasn't picked yet

 

[MJJ]

Torres.

Was probably hugely optimistic to think he'd make it back to me, but I'm still annoyed.

Is the best striker in the draft based on his peak, am surprised he even lasted all the way back to me.

Suarez, Torres, Terry, Starfish...will be highly interesting to see how these boys fare. All clearly brilliant regarded objectively, with the peak premise in mind - but all equally clearly tainted and possible liabilities in terms of voter reception.

Nah, I think Torres avoids that. We didn't hate him like all the others, it was just pure admiration and jealousy.

 

[Raees]

@Stobzilla why did you change my pick to boateng from essien?

I tried to rescue you haha.. sabotage!!

 

[Cutch]

MJJ picked him

@Theon

 

[VivaJanuzaj]

No way, never better than Eto'o, or even Suarez

 

[VivaJanuzaj]

MJJ picked him

No he picked Boateng and for some reason someone edited it to Essien

Be Safe, @Barney !

 

[MJJ]

Definitely better than etoo as an all round package, with saurez it's closer but he was way more clinical so imo he edges it.

 

[MJJ]

No he picked Boateng and for some reason someone edited it to Essien

you have lost it vj.

 

[Barney]

Is the best striker in the draft based on his peak, am surprised he even lasted all the way back to me.

Nah, there are three or four better. He's still a fantastic striker though.

 

[The Red Viper]

No he picked Boateng and for some reason someone edited it to Essien

Lol no.

Physiocrat picked Boateng. Then MJJ picked Essien.

 

[Skills]

Wanna be my scout?

Sure why not. We've previously managed to put together the second greatest caf werewolf game ever, so it's the closest thing possible to a guaranteed success.

 

[Raees]

No way, never better than Eto'o, or even Suarez

Torres at his peak was a much more dangerous big game striker than Suarez.

 

[BorisDeLeFora]

Feck off @Isotope

@Theon

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

 

[VivaJanuzaj]

Okay just realized Essien was picked.
I have two things to say:
1. feck.
2. I need to smoke less

 

[Raees]

from what I heard @Barney .. Isotope picked him just to spite you. He's going to use him as a sub.

 

[MJJ]

Sure why not. We've previously managed to put together the second greatest caf werewolf game ever, so it's the closest thing possible to a guaranteed success.

Not to mention that cricket draft team which would have dominated the newbies if the others hadn't got scared and called it off.

Will pm you in the morning regarding my ideas. See if you can research a few picks till then.

Nah, there are three or four better. He's still a fantastic striker though.

Like who?

 

[Isotope]

Feck off @Isotope

@Stobzilla took my Vidal away . So close, but yet so far .

 

[Barney]

Like who?

Suarez, Eto'o and Ibra.

 

[Barney]

Anyone willing to quickly give me their opinion on a couple of players?
