The Redcafe Decades Draft Tournament

Not sure how to react. I mean there'll be many of us who might agree to swap players with mutual agreement after they realized they have picked the wrong one but that sort of defeats the point of the draft. Really don't want to sound like a dick which I am right now but I am not sure that is a right thing to do.

OK, I'll stick to Campbell. I want the Hierro in midfield option anyway and it was all sentimental shit which will probably be unnecessary as things stand.

Just for clarity, I picked the right one. No regrets whatsoever as far as what the head says.
 
Pace, just sent you a suggestion I reckon could suit your total football agenda and what you seem to lack in your team.

Not the 30s RB I sent, that was a rubbish idea. The 50s player.
 
Reckon you could have taken him or any randomly generated 30s man next round. Oh well.

Just updated me on the last five pages, was really really drunk last night when I posted my pick for Costacurta.. biggest hangover for me today in a long while.

I did see some nice words about me on the last pages also :D
 
It's strange, the decade constraint has made this quite civil bar the occasional glitch. There was the usual mini free-for-all early on but once you get past trying to future-proof the side the pick planning is very simple, the options clear... Most sides will also end up being quite balanced and there won't be imbalances due to knowledge gaps, etc.

Good idea I reckon.
 
Yeah no fecker pm'ed me.

I'm picking Kenny Dalglish.
 
One of the best players today, Star man for Chelsea. I pick Juan Mata.

Ayee I reckon this is the same for a fair few people

If you're logging off then PM your pick because its extremely unlikely anyone else is in for the same player in terms of having the same decades/positions available
 
Aldo, can we change the rules so I can have two more 30s players? I have literally no use for the 80s. None. Not serious
 
Nah, Gio still has to get a striker and there are people after him with open 40s and 80s slots so it's important he gets this right.
 
You are in a unique position TBH :lol:

The thing is it also somewhat gives away how people could line up. It's a long shot, but I can see situations where it wouldn't be a good idea.

I've got your pick and I'm stuck here all weekend looking after my convalescent mother in law. You can go mate ;)
 
I have two people in mind but now feel stupid.. Any1 up for a PM?

El Garrincha Argentino shared both the Brazilian's ability to leave beleagured left-backs on their arse and his penchant for alcohol. Dimunitive and inventive right-winger, commonly regarded as the best Argentinian winger of all time, who was the architect of the country's Copa America triumphs in 1957 and 1959.
