@Joga Bonito
 
Have you been to Argentina?

No need for blankets anyway ;)

Nah, I thought that he would do better in a more cold climate as he is visibly comfortable there

Really just wanted to post this pic, my favorite of him, as he won't be in my main post later
 
Hmm.. going to have to research my ass off to recover from this.
 
Both this and the next round will be interesting. Big advantage to have first choice on the youngsters in round 10.
 
Joga Bonito picks Daniele Di Rossi.

@Raees
 
@Edgar Allan Pillow , MM, the one used by the Mighty Magyars (3-2-3-2), that's not an option for the bonus, right?

Yeah, I thought that from the outset, when people bitched about this working better for those at the top. With all the swings and roundabouts I think this snake draft ends up being more balanced than usual.

My problem isn't really that I won't get the top youngsters, it's that it is impossible to plan at all when you have absolutely no idea what sort of player/position will be left over.

I really have bugger all idea who to pick next now.

Very hard to plan, indeed.

Realistically I'll end up with a youngster who is decent at best, which means it becomes a question of tucking him away somewhere. And that has consequences for the set-up. Essentially, you need to go for a set-up which can accommodate a semi-passenger of sorts.

Nope. I actually wanted this, but ended up typing WM so that stays. Can't change now.

I've changed my mind several times now but ultimately I'll go with the one who is certain to go in the next round. Never had him and would love to.

@BorisDeLeFora
 
Rock solid, had him a few times.

It was Ferrara, Campbell or one other for me.
 
i was thinking him too but went with Terry - might come to regret it.

Terry is good, but you'll struggle to get him credit on here.

I thought you were going to nab a midfielder, to replace Makelele.

I want to sort out my defence and I'll take my luck on midfielders. I'll definitely get in a holding mid at some stage, but it isn't going to be top notch or I might use Zanetti in such a role.
