The Second RedCafe Sheep Draft

I know. Final-worthy midfield from R1? Feckin' Joga.
:confused:

I was talking about the World Cup draft semifinal vs Annah.

/edit: I get the feckin Joga thing now.

I know. Was just saying with all the blocked players that's a midfield I would have happily played in the final.

Joga looks like he misses him even more, mind. I still don't get how nobody picked US. Sajeev had just got Rafa Marquez when the lost final criterion came up, looked a dead cert to go there. Nope.

Only two years away from being eligibile this round. If only he didn't retire at age 34.
 
When's the deadline for this round? It feels like its been dragging on for days.

Two and a half hours or so by my calculations. Should be done soon, both manager have been active in the last 10 minutes. In fact, they were both last seen viewing this thread. *waves
 
Instead of Haan obviously.

Yeah can think of a few but none matching the criteria so far (unless I missed a few post 90). It's a shame because I came across some cracking players in different positions but not too many in the one I wanted. Could have been different if I went through a different order of picks.

Yeah he was in my shortlist alongside a few other pre 90 Germans but had other picks to make. Came really close to getting 2 of em though.
 
There's a slight problem with Edgar's pick. I don't want to make the final call, but the decision doesn't affect anyone else. So I post the results, give EAP the 'fail' I think he deserves, but it could happen that Skizzo changes it to a 'pass'.

I know who you picked. Also expected Junior to be blocked, but it had to be risked.
It was fully intended as a block, not sure if my team will have the right balance now, but it is a big name.

I'm sure there were/are a couple of better players available, though.
 
I hate it when you all talk about a player and I have no idea who that player is. :(

That's what happens when you don't hire GiChAn Consulting. Look at those two morons going for Amoros and Bossis...
 
It's simple: he needs a LB, you need a LB, sajeev also needs a LB, and the only other chap who claims to have seen it is EAP, who claims he won't be playing a leftback (or, more likely, is playing Montero there).

I can say Sajeev had no interest in this guy and I'm positive you won't either, so nothing for you to worry about there. It is a lot more likely that you block each other and Stobz gets his man.
Told you so @NM @Theon

Over to the next, let's see who blinks first.
 
Hope it's a dodgy pick; one last controversy to end the draft :D
