Fancy doing some research for who has the best average time in terms of picking quickly. That person could be rewarded with a bonus pick?

Why do you need to be a smartass? Jump on the bandwagon yeh?

I actually was agreeing with you.. I do think the pace has been very slow. Gosh you need a wank or something - you seem stressed.
 
This is painfully slow. And you all are impatient and/or hyper sensitive :lol:

How come Vogts was picked so late? Was he drunk during the Euro's?

He wasn't that good in Euros. He didn't start for them in the 1974 Euros. Someone else was first choice. Though he did start for them in the 1978 Euros, he wasn't that good. Remember that Dzajic game? Also, leaving a couple of German players aside, most of the German players underperformed in that Euros!

Cheers mate! Thought there was a reason behind it considering who he is and how late he was picked.

Yeah .. I was begging Gio to let me pick him and he told me like as astute Uncle that Vogts was poor in the Euro's/wouldn't be a good fit tactically and as for Cuelemans just couldn't the right opportunity to pick him.

What positions did he play in Euros? and what was his style of play for those of us who didn't see him play.
