Nice pick that is kps, standout from that era

Jayvin is an Aussie I think so could be a while!
 
Are players being picked on their peaks or their entire career achievements?
 
If anyone out there wants to play but got in late let me know. I have a potentially quite busy couple of weeks ahead so may drop out.

It's basically All-Time with a different constraint, isn't it?

It's always peak form, I doubt we will change that now. Longevity always weighs though and people invarialy bring up rolls of honours which go beyond a decade, let alone peak form.

Long shot, but I wanted Baresi!
 
Dropping like fecking flies here

Thought both of those might get through to me
 
Excellent pick by Fergus too.

Come on chaps, this may be done and dusted by turn 3, make it quick!
 
Are you playing this then, Anto?

Seems like it as no one took me up on it and now I've done the thinking around it... It doesn't look good at all though, will probably be out first round so can afford the time I guess. Just enjoy the draft and see a risky bottom of the pile strategy fail!

Nah don't be daft, we can definitely still get a good team at the bottom :nervous:
 
Its no better at the top lads. Just aswell i got Messi as i've to wait another 30 picks which will probably all be brilliant.

Do you think you'll try and play Messi as a CF? Arguably the best player of all time but he's the hardest to fit into drafts like these out of he, Maradona and Pele.
 
I feel the same about a few of the best players, Beckenbauer, Messi and possibly Cruyff are hard to get the best out of I think

Good question as that was the reason it took me a while to pick. Was gonna go for Best as i think he's easier to fit into different systems and can play left or right. With Messi you kinda have to build the team around him but i couldn't really turn him down. I may not play him CF to be honest.
