I'm off to bed guys, I'll be back in a few hours when the football is on. Should be close to my pick by then.
 
Haha

Mine were Falcao, Redondo, Muller
 
This feels like a brutal draft. The decades rule is harder for drafters than the nationality rule was, yeah?
 
Zico and Muller have 120 goals in 134 international games...good luck to anyone else on beating that. Thought he might somehow slip through to me.

Aye, Aldo has 3 superb picks so far. Reeling them off nicely.

Yup. I was a beginner then too. Shame I'm doing this draft from work as I have minimal research into birthdates as my boss sits in the cubicle behind me!!

fecking insanely good picks, god knows why he wanted Iniesta or Keano in that team!

I thought Redondo was perfect to round off a three man midfield, but Muller just as good as a forward

:lol: Good luck with that

To be fair, at this stage, every pick is a top pick! His complement each other beautifully though

True. But you feel he's already ticked off goals and maybe midfield dominance as well.
 
Is VP on? Need him to pick.. I need my pick to work!!!
 
We can go from me all the way down and back quickly if he is around..

Much harder because with the nationality rule once you got one you just crossed out everyone from that nation. Pretty simple, here you have to keep going to the drawing board and finding the right player from the right decade... Nightmare.
 
Had him on me shortlist myself. :lol: Would have gone till the final without a worry.

I had Falcao/Redondo and Facchetti as next picks. Falcao is heartbreaking enough, but Giacinto?

I need to have a core I love, otherwise I completely lose interest. As it stands, I may just go on a suicide mission picking little known underrated players I really like.
 
Haha I'm almost pleased Edogen got him!

After you nabbed Garrincha from right under my nose I couldn't take you langing Falcao as well :)

Better then because I had you down as a Redondo picker. If Falcao was still around I would have gone Facchetti first as Brwned was never going to pick aother midfielder. I would have gone apeshit!

Would have gotten both Redondo and Falcao if you went Facchetti!
 
Anto is like that kid at school who always claims he's not studied and his exams are going to go badly, but then goes on to max them.
 
Facchetti was all mine.

EDIT: Ah, misread that entirely. knew you'd be snapping him up anto!
