There is no saving me unfortunately, I'm guaranteed a relatively average player no matter who I choose.

Did you think I would get them, honestly? I look forward to the gloating once results are out!
So close! Would have been the best strike partnership in the draft that. Unlucky guys.
Ouch!
How the feck did I not realise Di Stefano was blocked. Spent all yesterday evening deciding between him or Eusebio
I'm so happy right now.
Good, you needed a break and risks paying off to catch up. Sounds like you went for one of those that looked dangerous as feck to get stuck into, but the reward if going solo... oh boy...
It seriously surprised me! Not one, but two GOATs! Finally I can play Rocco and still attempt a win!
You should try Puskas next.
Audaces fortuna juvat
Clearly someone hasn't figured out how this game is supposed to be played..
You lucky lucky sod. It is clear from the various blocks and passes someone pulled either or both off.
Mentalist. Well done.
Why do you go all Gestapo on him? Christ, let him enjoy for once. What he is alluding too is bleeding obvious anyway, he is only associating an expected outcome with one manager.
Fixed the typo for you - I guess that this list is going to be quoted a lot. Poor Hidegkuti, nobody can spell his name properly.

I was seriously joking mate..
Solid couple of picks there. One that should be considered a GOAT and another that is probably a level just below.
Happy.
Happy.
Fair enough mate.

If I have one criticism to make, it has to be the wealth of options available in all rounds. It leads to avoiding the obvious and trying to secure your own = less deliberate blocks = less carnage.
I think the wealth here is restricted to your first pick. The coming picks are fixed to your first pick match, so unless you get away with Pick 1, you are in for a sheep. And not many matches have players worthy enough to share.
I vander if I am on my way to the top after my last pick. 
Next time maybe we should nominate one block each first before we undergo the sheep process, just to make it even more difficult?
A top CB? You might just beI vander if I am on my way to the top after my last pick.
So we'll have 10 rounds in total but how many players are usually up for picking in these drafts? Asking cuz I've never played this before!

All you Zidane failures must be happy campers, whatever happens next.
I'm winning the race to the bottom lads!

Tbh, I backed off the Eusebio game because I was sure you'd be there. Didn't expect you to get stuck on Zidane game.
What do you mean? 11 players + 1 sub will be total for each team. In Auction format the number of players picked may vary, but in this draft as the number of players picked are specified in the criteria, it should be 12 at the end.
@Skizzo I would go ballistic, if the next round is some kind of player swap round. We lose a player to get one of the legacy scumbags. Finally I get my shit going and if you feck that up by taking away a non-sheep player, I'll personally come there and strangle you.
Considering we have 6 players after 4 rounds,..... It is safe to say we are losing somebody at some point!
Where does it specify that it will be 11+1? That's my question basically
Nowhere in the OP - so it's entirely up to Skizzo.
It's probably a good time to make it clear that I have absolutely nothing to do with the upcoming criterion, I'm just a meaningless help who tries to keep the game ticking while the evil gamemaster is asleep, probably dreaming of evil criteria. Please direct all upcoming anger at him, he deserves it, no doubt.
It's the draft norm for all except auction drafts.
Seriously, how did that guy not get blocked. You all know who I'm talking about.
Usually I wouldn't have bothered, more likely welcomed an opportunity to get rid of one of my two sheeps, but the this and prior rounds made a huge difference. Now I actually think I'll can try for a win even with a sheep on the pitch. Very very lucky to get the two I picked this round especially. Losing any non-Sheeps (except maybe Scholes) would throw me back down to a 1st round loser team.
Maybe we can lose one of our non-sheep players for the guy we chose at the start.
You aren't helping at all. Sounds really ominous.
Don't worry we will throw a revolt against the evil you-know-who and organise a coup for you to become gamemaster. All you have to do is give us all a GOAT each. Just promise me el fenomeno though.
Managers happy, you get the position you are plotting for and the evil one is banished. Happy ending, no?
If that happens, I'd just act as a puppet and let antohan pull the strings in the background and he'd torture you all in ways even Skizzo doesn't think of.
