The Remake Draft

You can PM me if you want any input mate as I'm not involved in this in any capacity, although I can't promise I'll be any help whatsoever :)

You're always selling yourself short, old booze hound.

You know the offer still stands, right? Next chance there is, drop that square Skizzo and let's form the ultimate team. Booze, brains (depending on intake of the former) and brawn (depending on intake of the former too, but also enhanced by it) - that'll be our motto.
 
Having a serious problem with one of my players. There is literally no one comparable to him in the modern game.

think we all have at least one player that is impossible to find modern replacement :o
 
Just put together a team for La Maquina using players born 1970-1974..... some incredible talent just missing out by a year or two
 
Yeah I didn't realise Scholes was so fecking old thought he'd slot in nicely and then realised he's born in 74.

P.s just checking we can name ineligible players?
 
Rivaldo would have been first choice for my team if he was eligible, closest player I can think of to Pedernera

He's a player I considered. Just know for a fact I'll be planning all these players in my head and come my turn they will mostly be gone!

The good thing about this draft though is that all you really have to do is prove that players ability to perform the given role. So long as you can state a good case, then big names are irrelevant.

Yeah but getting a player for certain roles is impossible without the big names as lesser players can't fill the role played in the original team. I've still got hope of getting my number 1 pick as the rest of the team I can sort of use a variety of players.
 
Sorry, thought we were starting tomorrow so didn't leave my pick

@Marty1968 and I are picking
Nesta

:lol: It will have to be done, and it will be magnificent, in this sort of way:

I still reckon we should keep @Skizzo on board though, as a 'designated driver' of sorts ;)
 
How is Fat Ron in and messi and other Ronaldo banned?
Messi was banned because he's an easy way out for too many difficult to fill positions/roles in too many teams. The same is to a lesser degree also true for Cristiano and the discussion around him and what he can do is often a bit tedious. In the end Ronaldo is just a striker, even though of course a great one and also a versatile one, but he can't play as many different roles as the other ones and isn't really an important pick from a tactical point of view for most teams.

We could have banned more players or no one, but that seemed the best way to do it to us.
 
:nono:

Yup, we can go ahead without the deadlines for now and the deadline will officially start as stated initially (25th May 15:00 GMT) but no indirect pressuring or asking people to hurry up if they choose to take their time.
