Gio showing he has learned his previous lessons: don't get any random fullback, and have the option to play a very strong midfield. Cesc - Vieira I assume. 
The Redcafe Champions League Draft
- Thread starter Theon
- Start date
I must admit my first team had a weak spot but not anymore!
I pick Gianluigi Buffon!
I pick Gianluigi Buffon!
Glad Figo and Vieira found new homes. I'd expect at least one more to go.. How many rounds in this mini-draft?
3
My central defenders are celebrating tonight that they will have Buffon behind them.
Trying to find a way to partner Xavi and Iniesta but it's not happening!
Theons gonna have a full head of grey hair by the end of this draft!
Gio could end up with Xavi and Viera, just ridiculous really! Add Romario to that forward line and its game over.
I don't know why everyone seems intent Gio adding yet anther midfielder, Mauro and Vieria is the perfect platform for those ahead of him and his fullbacks, I'm not sure I'd rather have a Vieria and Xavi/Fabregas partnership instead of that, despite Xavis greatness.
No scope for improving defence and romario/henry next. Xavi-vieira would be amazing, as would Mauro-Vieira if more steel is needed
Was never going to get back to you.
Perhaps, but as Gios drafted so well I see no problem in picking up the best possible striker, even if he does only play one game before being upgraded.
I'd say certain strikers would give him more chance of winning the next game than Xavi would (especially if he's already got Fabregas anyway), it's fairly obvious who. Not sure if he s restricted by CL winners though nd it's too hot to bother checking it now!
What about Vidic/Ferdinand for Gio - surely a Caf vote winner
Indeed, great shout.
I'd add players Whois can play in a final in gio's case. Xavi or vidic over a one-game striker
Yeah, Vidic looks ideal.
Hate writing on año iPad see hoy fu mes un ir os? I.e see how fecked up it is?
So 3 of my players will probably get picked and I still got thumped. I hate you Theon!!

Getting Xavi was a right kick in the balls, really dont need him
And I would've loved Xavi!
I really was stuck between two players but I will go for a non winner. Gives me some flexibility.
I pick Robert Pires!
I pick Robert Pires!
Gio or Theons winnin this
Xavi, Pirlo and Iniesta.
Theon, told you to take Xavi!! You are disheartening the competition before a ball has been kicked!
So what do people think of my new guys?
Buffon and then the french duo Zidane and Pires.
Buffon and then the french duo Zidane and Pires.
Pires is the only one I am confused about, he was a left winger mainly so what you doing with Giggsy?
Yeah but you stole Messi from me!
Thanks man
I know that but also able to play on the right. Gives me a non winner in a position I did not have.

Pires on the right is just as silly as Giggs on the right. He can obviously play there but that's not him at his best at all.
Yup, Euro 2004 and it didn't work very well.
Great pick, that's who I would have gone for too. You have smashed this round Gio
