The Reality Draft: Main Thread (Finals)

It was. Again, styles, he wasn't tasked or expected to be a playmaker from midfield like a Junior but rather to make penetrative runs seeing as Dortmund didn't play wingers. Again, you are concluding things based on falacious observations.

Can't believe I am arguing against Reuter, never thought I would do that, remember I argued he should have been picked earlier. If you look at Brehme on the other side when they played together for Germany, it is very clear that Reuter lacks the technical abilities of Brehme. So even if they are expected to play the same role, it is apparent that Brehme has world class technique to boost his physical abilities - while Reuter's technique isn't world class.

You see that every time Reuter receives a ball, how quickly he can make the pass, how accurate it is and how long his passing range is. That is no shame on Reuter as he is one of, if not the, physically best full back/wing back in history. He had a great stamina, acceleration and pace as well as a great balance.

His strengths were his physical supremeness and his weaknesses were his technical ones, not that they were poor - just not world class.
 
So it seems two rounds left after crappy picks, which means the drafting will end at the bottom with an odd number of rounds. Unfair for those of us down in the order. :(

:lol: Think it balance error of the youth round. Well it doesn't but at least it gets closer to being balanced.

Now you are arguing Alves>Reuter off the back of Brehme > Reuter. No shit Sherlock, Brehme is one of the top 5 LBs in history.

I am not arguing that Alves is better than Reuter. I've said that Alves strength, his offense. Is stronger than Reuters offense, which is normal as Reuter was very well balanced in terms of offense and defense. Not better offensively than defensively as a full back. While Alves is specialized offensively and is one of the better full-backs offensively.
 
BTW @antohan I was serious about having a proper old school draft of players born in the 40s, same as we have had about 50, 60s and 70s. Maybe 10 or 12 teams instead of 16 but it will take a lot more research than bigger timeline drafts such as these and some gems are bound to be revealed. It would cover the late 60s early 70s era broadly which was a great time for football. Some really top players along with the unsung heroes of the great teams of those times, should be really good. And hopefully with the help of knowledgeable posters such as yourself we would be able to come across some nice stories.

Annah, I agree with all that actually, just not on how being balanced somehow makes the unbalanced become better at their strength.

I think offensively the only thing Alves has on Reuter is the pace of his delivery (not the accuracy which is splitting hairs). Alves did go for the early cross a lot more than Reuter, but it doesn't mean Reuter didn't or couldn't execute it. In fact, I tried find a compilation to address this (which is impossible to find without speaking German I suppose) and after failing I randomly click on a run-off-the-mill game that showed up in the search results... and there I had Reuter assisting the assister with a beautifully struck pass from a Beckham position. The next move in the clip results in a penalty on him after he goes for the dribbling charge, which was indeed his trademark.

Overall, I'd take Alves having something on Reuter offensively if the early cross in particular is important, which personally I'm not sure it is here considering how many defenders you have and how much support your attack could use from the flank further up the field. The cost of that minor "delta" is someone who is more sound defensively, which I don't think is a good trade-off. It will alll work completely differently votes-wise, obviously.

Anyhow, we are going round in circles and boring everyone with nuances.

Eight teams, the ten teams with group stages was like watching paint dry in the 50s one and the extent of the obscurity of some players was such most games ended with single digit scorelines early on. Only in the final stages with teams consolidated around household names (well, somewhat) did the participation kick in.

I don't think I'll have the time but will be happy to chip in here and there with the story side, particularly with the harder to research South Americans. I haven't seen most of those first hand, mind.

Not just group stage, here is the Quarter Final with a final scoreline after 24 hours being 3-1 and a handful of posts in the thread. :lol:

https://www.redcafe.net/threads/quarter-final-3-tdon69-v-duffy.357334/

Must be really frustrating for the managers having put so much time, effort and research to not be able to get the desired interest. Having said that I think these drafts are a lot more popular these days than 2 years ago and would probably not go to those dire levels.

Guess eight teams would not be a bad idea.
 
Okay, there are so many brilliant goalkeepers around, and, considering all this controversy about their relevance in the draft, I will wait with my pick until the last round.

@Stobzilla
 
Jayvin had sent me two names in the format

1. Buffon
2. ------

I am not sure if he meant the second was a backup for that round if Buffon was picked or if he meant that the second one was the pick for this round. Probably best to just wait for him.

Edit : Scrap that, he's online anyway.
 
@Aldo picks my favourite goalkeeper of the 80's :drool: . If there was still any doubt about my vote in your game after the Schweinsteiger pick, it's gone now. Unless you play against a better team than yours of course.

Really?

Wait and watch for my next pick then. You would jump from the Aldo-bandwagon.

I can't wait till you light up my feelings for your team, till you spark that fire. I'm really looking forward to that pick.
 
:lol: That feel when you post white text but the post gets quoted before the intended person has read it.
To be fair, it really was just an insurance in case someone complains about my bias, you've got my vote, mate. Not that it's worth much, half of antohan's vote, seriously, who came up with that shit rule?
 
:lol: There's been a lot of talk of how to make results more fair, how to reduce the impact of scan voters, etc. I don't mind this change however I think if we are to stick with it it would be good to include former managers and regulars in the double vote category. For example in this draft yourself, Gio, Cutch, Pat Mustard etc can easily be included.

That would be full on apartheid style voting. Let's stick with the rules we have now. I was a scan voter for some time and eventually joined in later. We should not turn away scan voters completely since many could be potential draft players.
