The Reality Draft: Main Thread (Finals)
- Thread starter Edgar Allan Pillow
- Start date
one too many. I think it might not notify them.
Might be wrong but I think the tag limit was increased to 10. In any case 5 would be notified in the order of joining date.
Am only online in the morning though(GMT time) as my home internet is having issues which will probably take a couple of days to sort out so am only online from my office.
Dunno if that will work for you guys, otherwise wouldnt mind filling in.
Go at it, maybe you and Theon could work together? Preferably with Theon knowing your picks in advance so he can pick for you in case you are unlucky with the time.
That's fine by me MJJ till your internet gets sorted.
Not that I have many choices. Try at it mate. If you are at it in the GMT mornings, it should be fine.
I like Annah's suggestion too!
All you need now is the draft picks as the actual matches will take longer to set up and hopefully your internet will be fine!

Thanks @MJJ Read through the OP and let me know if you have any queries.
Anto and Annah both have my pick since I'm heading to work
It is your turn, right? You can just pick.
Okay chaps, really to be clear MJJ has been kind enough to take over Chester's team - so I'm not responsible.
I've sent him a PM since but he seems to have gone offline and I am not sure when he will be back. So to stop this dragging out I'll make this one pick for him, so that you guys can move on.
I'll go with IMO the best forward left in the draft and one of the most flexible in terms of future formations - A Caf favourite, to boot.

@BorisDeLeFora
Good Picks.
It was between Forster and Vidic for me. And, If I didn't got Scholes, Pep was the one I had in mind to control my midfield.

I wanted Förster too, but when I sent antohan my pick he told me Skizzo took him right away from me.
I'm happy with Pep anyway, my defence will just have to wait.

Aw, bollocks, Pep was someone I really needed. Running out of options here, starting to look like I'll need to go 4-4-2 
Boris is odds on to piss me off here, I can feel it. Actually... looks like I'll piss off those after me
I hope you drop your consistency and pick some new names for a change, because I really want one of your favourites.
I still have not decided whom to plomp for!

I've no idea who you are talking about, which is probably good news for you!
Edit: Crap, I think I know who... can't make a call on him yet though
I pick Toninho Cerezo, part of the fantastic Brazilian 1982 team.

FFFSSS .. Effenberg was my pick
Pep would've been perfect for me too
If you meant to play that way you dropped a massive bollock prioritising Vierchowod.
FFFSSS .. Effenberg was my pick
I can imagine, I was fretting earlier then saw Boris had midfielders and it was you guys lacking them. Phew!
I tossed a coin between Effenberg and Bastian but the latter's ability to support the flank suited me more and Effenberg's passing range would have been a bit redundant with Pirlo in there.
feck me sidewways, are we all playing off the same crib sheet?
Still, I can say I've finally caught a break here, can't believe he is still around
FFFSSS .. Effenberg was my pick
He was also the pick @Joga Bonito PM'd me. Too bad!
Just give me a few moments to readjust, I had some backups in mind.
Indeed, there's subtle differences between the two and Stefan was my first choice for that same reason. Considering I already have my right flank congested with the Freddie-Me combo, I could actually use Stefan's passing range more than Bastian's adeptness pushing up the right flank.
I did think you picking Bastian would have a domino effect though, I'm really surprised he made it this far. Hopefully that change in luck lasts and I get Ruud or Batistuta next.
Haha, had looked at Effenberg too, your fears weren't totally misplaced @antohan .
Rob Rensenbrink - unfortunate not play in the Ajax side.. otherwise he'd have alot more medals to his name. @Jogabonito
