I agree, but with so many people losing centre-backs through Tevez, I couldn't risk going in without a CB general. Most people are going to pick CB's this round.

I agree, but with so many people losing centre-backs through Tevez, I couldn't risk going in without a CB general. Most people are going to pick CB's this round.
Not decided on that yet actually, weighing up two different options right now.
I love the other one but I suspect that the 3-5-2 would be easier to sell - though saying that, you couldn't pick a worse time to try that system on a United forum.

Anto's dream team!
Anto's dream team!
Yeah, I wasn't happy with any of the left wingers still around, so I picked up one of the few remaining Ballon d'Or winners, who has a proven partnership with my striker on top of that. Changes my formation a bit, it will be some kind of asymmetric diamond formation.
The T-Bola team:
Anto's dream team!
The fecking scouse "GOAT" actually manages to be the worst player on the pitch
That's actually a very good side, bar StevieMe.
The guys at the bottom of the draft will have a big advantage in the next round. There are only a few great young players around, so obviously @VivaJanuzaj gets one of them.
Hmm. Could have been worse I guess. Although Simonsen and Robben playing outwide would have been quite tasty.
And, how many babies did you sacrifice to get Gerrard get Tevezbola-ed, @antohan ?
And, how many babies did you sacrifice to get Gerrard get Tevezbola-ed, @antohan ?
What was decided with the Tevezbola picks though? Do they come back after the first round or go completely out of the squad?
Completely out. No baby sacrifices, just shagged his wife a handful of times. Overall, delighted to have got him, if only so briefly.
What the thick scouser doesn't get is I'm only a 30mins flight away from Argentina. In fact, she is coming tomorrow while he trains with Racing de Avellaneda.
Would be funny to see what happens if in real life StevieMe tries to walk into your team after a stunt like that!
I'll replace Brehme's right back spot with .....

@MJJ @Theon
shit
Now that the interference rounds are over, you can just accommodate 1 youth player and build your top teams!
I know I am usually critical of my teams in drafts (unless we are talking about my Decades Draft team 
) but I'll be fecking shocked if I make it anywhere near qualifying for the second round.
) but I'll be fecking shocked if I make it anywhere near qualifying for the second round. Iniesta
I have no idea what to do now, feck.

I know exactly who VivaJ is going to get. Bloody hell...The German?
Sshh
Really? I had been resisting him since the last round. Would have probably gone for him if I wasn't forced into a narrow formation for which I need a different style of fullback, thanks to the bearded shmuck.
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
And here I was, thinking that he would be the best man to fill the hole I had in my team after Puyol left (and, actually, an upgrade). I don't know how you guys play in this things regularly, I can't bear this much disappointment of missing out on players
()Great pick, some inferior defenders were picked before him somehow, imo. Hierro, Silva, Ferrara
Really? I had been resisting him since the last round. Would have probably gone for him if I wasn't forced into a narrow formation for which I need a different style of fullback, thanks to the bearded shmuck.
If he had even crossed my mind I would have taken him before Annah did, would have been absoolutely perfect for something I'm trying to do.
Balls, I couldn't find my original excel so pieced one together with various ones from other drafts but it seems Bossis was in none of them
I have a feeling you all know who I should take, but I don't
I have a feeling you all know who I should take, but I don't
They are all talking about a certain bald Frenchman who was a master at marshalling the defence.
Was? Weren't they talking about one for the youth round?
Hah! Might as well name him
As it is, Viva's team is already too strong. If he gets him, we might as well give him the trophy and stop playing.
I hate all of you. I have no idea who you're talking about a French CB? But Blanc and desailly are gone... FFS

Sorry for the delay chaps, me and MJJ had a big decision here
We'll go for IMO comfortably one of the greatest players of the last decade, as well as one of the most underrated - Il Capitano

Aaah shite.. was hoping he would be available later as an option
Nice pick Theon, I'm still mulling over a couple of things, won't be long though.
