There are just too many options.

Thanks for that, cheers.
I am surprised sajeev did not go for a certain replacement for Marquez
@sajeev finally!!.. I would go diamond here, you've got a potentially cracking side. Is it two reinforcements or one this round guys? if it is one.. Marquez replacement was the priority.

ah... Zico joins Socrates..
The quality of these teams is going to be incredible tbh, everyone looks strong! Smallest of margins could decide these match ups, can't afford a tactical mishap.
So sajeev, a diamond with Henry and VB with Rivaldo behind them?
lets wait and see. depends on who I am playing, and also who I get to pick in the next round.
have two formations in mind
Marquez is boss, la.
Cracking pick though, IMO he should now get in a pure winger.
Nah, Breitner is the one EAP must be pining for. Stick him at left wingback or CM, either will do for him going forward!
I really don't get this. All you guys go about all game is how Henry doesn't work and MvB
and then when reinforcements come have a pop at Márquez. He is absolutely fine but, if needs be, sajeev has various options: DMs, DMs that drop into a three, liberos, CBs that free Bossis up to play central...Marco? Only one.
I really don't get this. All you guys go about all game is how Henry doesn't work and MvB
Marco? Only one.
Marquez is fine but there is a GOAT in that list for that role
I don't get. What have EAP's plans to do with my post?
You said Breitner made more sense than Brehme if the plan was to move him to midfield later. I said that's exactly what EAP should have had his sights on. There's the link.
It was. Now dashed to pieces.
I had Joga, Viva and NM to go after the fullbacks and first two went straight to stab me in my heart. All NM has to do is dance beside the corpse. I'm so dead!
Too late for that

FFS the full backs are disappearing! I thought I would be able to pick one on the way up.

I really don't get this. All you guys go about all game is how Henry doesn't work and MvB
Marco? Only one.
Anto, Marquez is a decent DM no doubt, but he's going to be sticking out like a sore thumb against some of these sides. Rest of side may be strong enough for him to get away with it mind. In terms of balance, I don't see anything wrong with it but if he comes up against a side which is well-balanced it'll come down to people's perception in terms of the quality of his personnel. Marquez will undoubtedly draw the wrong kind of attention.
So.. Cabrini or Carlos then? Still thinking. Will take a call soon.
I kind of want to make a pick just to screw with sajeev, but it might backfire and change my team a bit(some might say for the better).
Yeah, I can see that, but the way it's being banged on about it is almost a case of having to drop him or getting backlash votes (it happens a lot).
I don't see many who can actually execute that better, although it seems everyone is assuming a libero and a DM that drops into a three are the same thing. They are not, similar of course, but not the same.
Cabrini gets way more credit defensively and not as much attacking, but Carlos is generally underrated in the caf. Almost took him myself instead of Breitner but resisted the temptation
For him, it depends a lot on CB's who he is playing with.
You could leave it and possibly let EAP make your mind up for you?
What's the verdict on Gerets vs Amoros?
Not much in it. Amoros is better going forward and can play on both wings, Gerets probably the better defender.
But in the increasingly elevated company a defensive and midfield core with Alaba, Marquez and Seedorf is starting to look a little vulnerable. Not that I don't love the attacking potential centred around Marco and Rivaldo - it'll be like a souped up version of Rivaldo's partnership with Kluivert.I really don't get this. All you guys go about all game is how Henry doesn't work and MvB
Marco? Only one.
You couldn't really go wrong either way. Cabrini had the connection with Tardelli and Platini going for him, but Roberto Carlos and Carlos Alberto is a great pair with a nice balance between defense and attack.
Just back from a lunch meeting. Will pick in 10 mins.
