The Second RedCafe Sheep Draft
- Thread starter Skizzo
- Start date
One more round to pick your 12th player, followed by another of Skizzo's surprises. Probably best to finish your side with that 12th pick and worry about Skizzo's evil ideas later.
I have a guess, one round of picking an reinforcement and a block from the blocked list. Some teams gonna get incredibly upgraded here if they get a Pele or something...
How many left to submit for this round mate?
Sent in my dead cert of a block.
Sent mine too.
Of course, I wasn't limiting my input to just post-99 players for this draft. I was talking about how, in the past, whenever I spectated these drafts, I'd have to read up/watch videos of so many players just to get a good idea about them. As a result, I felt comfortable enough to participate in this draft but not enough to be a manager (plus time restrictions held me back). Given the players many of you pick for these drafts, I get the feeling most of you guys have watched full matches of these players and their teams unlike me, who was only limited to highlights and readings because I only got into football from the age of 6 in 1999.
Still, though, I quite enjoy researching and learning extensively about the past great teams and players. I had an idea about some of the great sides and players of the past, but after spectating these drafts, I have an even better idea about football in the past, and it makes me appreciate the sport even more.
By the way, is there any place I can go to for watching the matches of these past great teams? I'd love to see what football was actually like back in those days.
Youtube.. you can find most games and even match compilations.
Sent.
come on. I really want this pick to go through, although I guess he's one of the players everybody will wantSo just NM and MDFC left, huh!
You went for Nesta again didn't you?
Just realizing how badly that whole Cutch trade fecked me over right now... In trouble.
Sent!
picking now
I'm putting decent money on us blocking each other.
no I saw your team. There's only 1 block there. If I go for it, yes. Probably not.
Hopefully than. I think my next pick is as obvious as it comes.
What's happening? Results time?
The Hamrin - Pirlo dilemma .
AKA the gift that keeps on giving :crickets:
What dilemma? Since he already has to bench that sheep, thought there was only one way forward.
I don't know why, but it sounds to me like some chess thing. Karpov-Fisher debut, something like that.
He can play sheep and keep his original formation?
Maybe they consider playing the sheep to solve the dilemma? It's a great sheep after all.
Maybe it'll be known in a similar way in the Redcafe draft community for decades. There's a lot of potential.
He is a CB right? Nothing more suicidal in a draft playing a Sheep CB.
Edit: And he already has 2 CB's. Back 3 will just ruin the team.
Eh? Striker sheep is the worst. You can downplay your sheep's "influence" by having a great cover for him. You're more experienced in the drafts, so maybe you're right.
His name can only help - a few jokes about him fecking over the opposition's chances and every rational discussion is pointless.Argelico Fcuks up the team
All of you can fecks right off!
Striker means you can't score. If you have a rock solid defence, then you can argue to a draw.
A sheep in CB will be a straight loss, especially with quality of strikers available. You might need a all-GOAT caliber attack to outscore what you concede. Don't think any amount of DM's will cover for a sheep CB.
Hamrin's not a problem you weirdos
Cue deliberations about CB positioning revolving around whether Rio Fcuks Carlos Alberto or LB Fcuks Rio.
