Here is my Unpicked XI based around theme
590m Starting XI budget so plenty of room
based on
Lot of very good players there. British players (especially 70s/80s ones), don't seem to get the love, even ones with excellent records and European trophies.Dalglish30 Rush30
Gray20 Edwards70 Scholes70 Beckham70
Cole50 Moore100 Nesta100 Neville30
Shilton50
Subs: Armfield20, Martyn20
Selling Shilton and Neville and going for Best after Pat and myself drop out.
@Michaelf7777777 when do you want o rei to go against the italian juggernaut?

The countries with the biggest amount of popular players among drafters are Brazil, Germany and Italy and there is a significant correlation with the success of their national teams.
Someone like Moore is hugely respected here and seen as one of the greatest defenders ever.
That’s true about Moore.. At the same time people respect Charlton but he’s somehow not always the go to no. 10 or picked as often..
The same can be said about a lot of British players from 1970’s and 80’s despite their great European success.. I remember @oneniltothearsenal and I discussing how we underrate some players from the great Forest team. Robertson, Anderson, McGovern aren’t picked as often as they should
Is our match being put up today @Indnyc
@Šjor Bepo
@Pat_Mustard
The discussions will be interesting.
I can't spend time here in the next days.
Thursday night maybe, Friday/Saturday/Sunday
Is it ok?
Good luck!
Good luck to you too mate and sorry for taking so long to respond. Friday suits us if we're allowed to have three matches in one day.
@Indnyc what time is the thread likely to go up? heading to bed in a few and don't want to miss too much of the start if possible
Sent my team @Indnyc @Edgar Allan Pillow . Start whenever you are ready.
Just clarifying the reinforcement round.
I’m guessing once all matches are played in rd1 bidding will start again on players, 1 or 2 or unlimited nominations at a time?
We get an additional 50m but still only need to keep a 13 man squad.
Players we sell during reinforcement will still be minus 10/20m?
Our subs from the first game must play this round along with our new signing/s?
the two players that didn't play in the 1st round should play in the QF's. All other players can be sold.
We don't have to have 13 man squad but required 11. Technically if you buy a player for the QF it's not required to play him, just those two that didn't play last round.
If you sell them to the bank you are docked 10-20m, unless traded with other managers.
So I can sell 3 of my first team, buy just one new player. So I Only have a squad of 11?
Squad of 13 at all times.. After QF no obligation to play your whole squad though..
You can sell/trade any of the starting 11 with the same rules as before (10/20mn loss if sold to bank)
Your 2 bench players must play in QF.
Ok thank you for the explanation.Squad of 13 at all times.. After QF no obligation to play your whole squad though..

@Indnyc are we required to keep exactly 13 players throughout the entire draft? Or once we used the 12th and 13th player can we sell them back and keep 11 players if we wanted?
13 players throughout the draft
Pretty sure in past auction drafts you could sell all your reserve players at any time.We drafted under the assumption that you had to keep 13 throughout as it would be the default position in any draft.
Skizzo clarified this in the thread at some point. Not sure if everyone read though.
This would make upgrading really tough and not really fun in terms of changing your squad.
R.4) 2 players per reinforcement round; 1 for final. 50m extra funds will be available per reinforcement round
Always fun to upgrade or change personnel. Sometimes for the good, sometimes to feck things up a bitWhy would Dogma and 2muGio need upgrades FFS. Already the draft final in my books

Also @Indnyc is that 2 players max or do we have to get 2 new players each round? I don't see how any reinforcements at all are possible if we have to get 2 players each round, the selling deductions and the "auction price = new base price" rule make this extremely difficult.
Sell 2 players (2x 10m loss)
50m cash
= effectively 30m reinforcement money to upgrade 2 players
2muGio will be beaten today.
Player 1= 30m
Player 2= 20m
You sell both and you get 30m. Add on the 50 and the budget is 80.
