@rpitroda team looks bloody superb, Vieri didn't get enough credit for me last draft and I hope he'll get better credit for you. I had a frontline maybe even better than your's(you have Laudrup-Laudrup-Pires-Vieri I had Luis Enrique-Rui Costa-Giggs-Vieri) and the biggest stick that I got was not having enough goal options in my team :confused: :confused:

I think you could've done better than Bruce & Pallister, but its one of my favorite teams in the draft.

cheers mate. I agree with the defense. But once i Made the decision to not go for TP defence, it was vitally important the partnership was proven in real life.

Yeah I'm sure it will be fine, I just think he could've done better, for example I rate our pair better although they aren't proven. Part of the fun in these drafts.
 
Someone said he needs a partner. Stoichkov is gone so...
He just looked isolated in that 451 with wide midfielders trying to look like wingers. Don't think it's a problem in general, if you play him in a 433 or 442.

It all depends on the players I get. Having Giggs though is slightly troublesome in a 433. As for Romario-Suker combo, what are the xpectations?

Why? He's an excellent winger? Beckham would be a problem, he was clearly a wide midfielder. Don't see anything wrong with Giggs and Romario in a 433. But that's all your TP points gone then.

That is true but there are plenty of really good players that are not TP still available.
 
So, lads...as a purely defensive midfielder, possibly in a midfield three, who do you like:

Petit or Mauro Silva?
 
Somebody has edited out my Simeone bid made some hours ago! :@

@rpitroda I love that team by the way, Vieira and Keane is better than him and Scholes except in a 4-4-2 except the proven bit of course. Rest is brilliant, United back four and good enough offense to create goals.

Not sure it's better than Keano-Scholes. It's quite different..

I can see where he is coming from, to have a player like Laudrup infront of the midfield you can't really have Scholes in there as they occupy the space Scholes is looking to use.

Keane and 2006-2010 Scholes however, different story I think.
 


Thoughts?

Looks great mate but, like I said, while I could see Vieri being the best available for your team on a vote-winning basis not reuniting the best attacking partnership of the mid-80s is a real shame. AFAIC the best partnerships defining the 80s were Breitnigge, Platini-Boniek, Laudrup-Elkjaer and Gullit-van Basten. Three of those were possible here, yet none have been formed :(
 
@Sammer's Hammer buys Koeman from me for 15 million pesetas. If he answers to this message there is a clause saying I have to pay him back 1 million.

Not sure it's better than Keano-Scholes. It's quite different..

I don't think a 4-2-3-1 with Scholes and Keane is viable at all. United used wide midfielders who contributed loads in the defense and still Scholes and Keane conceded plenty of goals. Moving the wingers further up means Scholes and Keane gets even less help so it is in my opinion more important with a Keane-Keane(a la Vieira) type of partnership for those roles where the defense is priority number 1-2-3 and offense number 4.
