Transfer fantasy draft

Balakov was excellent in his first few years at Stuttgart as well. The usual Löw team, top heavy with excellent attacking football built around Balakov but useless in defense. Still, they won the cup, scored the most goals in the league and, even though Elber left, made it to the cup winners' cup final the following season (lost against Chelsea).
 
Ah, feck it. I'm done. Won't get anyone who'll make any difference anyway, I reckon. And stockpiling players is pointless unless they're big enough names to be considered "capital". I'll probably get knocked out in the first round anyway.

No need to rush. I'd say that we agree to finish drafting over the weekend and start games on Monday or Tuesday? That would mean we finished drafting in a week, which isn't bad at all.
 
Who is Krasimir Balakov?!?

While Stoichkov was the face (in fact a number of faces) of Bulgarian football, Krasimir Balakov was its beating heart. Over a 20-year career that saw him write his name into the folklore of two of Europe’s biggest clubs, and help drag a nation from the bowels of footballing anonymity into the spotlight of a world cup semi final, Balakov established himself as one of the finest playmakers of his generation.

In some ways, Balakov appears to be almost a caricature of your typical number 10. A headstrong figure who locked horns at various intervals with coaches and team mates alike in his day, his artistic sensibilities are reflected off the pitch by the vast and growing collection of paintings he keeps in a gallery in a wing of his house. The Bulgarian ticks all of the prime playmaker boxes – vision, skill, astonishing technique and the audacity to try what others wouldn’t dare to attempt. He also possessed a veritable Swiss army knife of a left foot, as capable of powering home a high velocity free kick from 30 yards as subtly unlocking illustrious defences with a stunning through ball.

As a player, trophies eluded Krasimir Balakov, with just one Portuguese Cup and one German Cup to his name, and he will be eager to atone for that as a manager. Yet despite his lack of silverware, Balakov’s legacy should not be forgotten. For all of the plaudits that have rained down on him over his career – at its apex at USA ’94 and the glory days at Sporting and Stuttgart – he still seems underrated somehow, forever in the shadow of his friend/nemesis/rival Stoichkov. Yet with power and pace married to gliding poise and searing football intelligence, and possessing THAT left foot, Balakov should be remembered as one of the most complete playmakers of his generation.
 
Would appreciate some thoughts on some options...:

What do people recon?
 
Not exactly horrible line-ups, any of 'em. The one in the middle I'd scrap personally, though.

I suspect Michael Laudrup will be a bigger vote puller than Gazza. And if you go for a Keane/Gazza combo behind Michael - you'll get all sorts of criticism, I think.

I'd probably go for the third one myself - with Vieira and Keane behind Michael.

You can use Henry as a super sub in that on - throw him one for someone when the opposition is getting good and tired!

You need to sub Michael off to throw Henry on the pitch, there is no other choice - I understand that both of them cost 6 TPs?

Horrific midfield to play against, pacey fullbacks, excellent passing everywhere but Campbell, really and Suarez and Messi are free to do whatever they want and be scary on the break.

Simeone as Captain and Manager.
 
Hahaha. Nice try.

Any edge! I want to make extra clear to people that I won`t be playing Tiki-Taka, despite having Xavi and Busquets. I see the team as very similar to Italy`s Euro 2012 side, with a rotating diamond with better attacking players and much faster fullbacks.

Actually, looking at it, I`ll listen to offers for Busquets for a wide player or CAM, since I can maybe get by with Xavi as the deepest midfielder with Simeone and Vidal protecting him, and another attacker up front.
 

Proper-counter attacking side with those wingers, Gullit and that Italian backline. Seems vulnerable to a 10, though, and to counters when Donadoni or Barnes have a cross cleared and Ince and Gullit have gone a bit gung-ho.

I don`t know much about Briegal. You might wanna sell him hard when the games come up.
