The Second RedCafe Sheep Draft

The only thing is that planning is essential in these reinforcements, especially the first one and you don't need planning as you get two picks simultaneously

Nah, in normal drafting, picking together gives you easy combinations. In reinforcements you already have a base team. Only certain positions need reinforcement and better to have a Goat there.

Looks like I've posted the wrong Littbarski tribute vid in the match day thread. Both the frozen stills almost look the same ffs :mad:. Here's the real one, the other one doesn't do him any justice whatsoever.



Notice his absurd close control dribbling in the tightest and most crowded of places; pace which allows him to drive forward from deep whilst also allowing him to tap the ball past defenders and outpace them; his 2 footedness when it comes to dribbling, shooting and passing, in combination with his invaluable ability to operate from the centre or either flank.

Doesn't fully portray his goalscoring prowess and his crossing/passing ability though, being a dribbling compilation. He even functioned as more of a playmaker in his latter years when his legs started to go.

Probably won't use that incarnation but just used that to show that he's not a purely goalscoring 1 in 2 forward but rather a complete wide attacker (some of his qualities were more pronounced in different versions obviously)

Waiting for the last game. Sajeev has sent in his tactics and formation.

Once @MDFC Manager sends his, I can put the last match up. If he doesn't get his information to us by 12pm GMT Tuesday, sajeev gets the win by forfeit. Don't know why they both waited until the last minute to send everything in :rolleyes:

Will be sending in my team profile and how I see my team playing this match soon.

No worries :) just make sure you add @Balu to the conversation for your tactics etc, since I probably won't be around when you send them over. Thanks.

Once the game is finished, we'll try and get the reinforcement round done ASAP and the draw right after. Thanks for your patience everyone :)
 
I hope he gets picked up in the reinforcements and we get Irwin vs Irwin. One could play him LB with the other RB :lol:. Irwin versus Irwin on the flanks!
 
:lol: at you guys for just realising this.

I am very, very, VERY surprised that this was only caught recently. Why didn't anyone else notice this earlier?
 
I guess the goalkeeper thing distracted from the fullback issue. He forgot Kahn and played Goalie instead, then changed it to KAAAAAAAHHHNNN !!!, which made the small and easily to confuse Irwin or Demyanenko thing basically impossible to notice.

That being said, I blame @Skizzo, he posted twice after the change and had to notice it. I'm just the assistant, he has to take full responsibility for all my wrong doings anyway.

At least now Stobz knows why he lost. Demyanenko >>> Irwin.

@Skizzo maybe before you go to sleep you can randomize and explain the reinforcements? I know Sajeev vs MDFC has 3 hours left in it and it's tight, but if you randomize them as "Sajeev/MDFC" we can maybe start planning ahead for the reinforcements? Would definitely save time.
 
Reinforcement round order

1. KPS88
2. Joga Bonito
3. Cutch
4. Sajeev/MDFC Manager
5. BorisDeLeFora
6. VivaJanuzaj
7. NM
8. Edgar Allan Pillow

Picks will be made like a regular snake draft. Order was determined by number of sheep. KPS is 1st since he has 0 sheep. Edgar is last as he has 3. The rest were randomized as they all had 1.

@kps88 will make the 1st pick from any of the eliminated teams. After you make your pick, tag the next person on the list. Once it reaches EAP, he'll make two picks, and it will move back up the list.

Sheep can begin to be replaced. After this round, I imagine EAP will be the only player left with a sheep (1) but that won't be a factor in the following reinforcement rounds.

After the last pick is made, the match ups will be announced. The first pick can be made as soon as KPS is around. The deadline is 12 hours per pick. No deadline for KPS pick yet since there's a game underway still. If you won't be around for your pick (Or don't think you will be) PM @Balu or myself with at least 2 or 3 picks, in order of preference, so they can be posted.

I think that should be straight forward. I'll be around later if anything needs clarifying. If KPS shows up before I'm back, feel free to start picking once the last game is finished.

edit: The draw has already been done..but won't be revealed until after the picks. Screen shot will be provided. Some cracking matches.

Your team is already more or less flawless, just pick the available goats when it's your turn and you're good ;)
