@harms I can understand the reasoning behind it but this is in fact an all time draft.
At the end of the day we vote for who we would think will make a difference here and I’m pretty surprised by the vote outcome to be honest. Not riled up about losing the game as mentioned but if this game is played 10 times who do you honestly see end up winning? You mention galacticos 2. Yet we have seen many stacked teams dominating the game even with many individuals that don’t put a shift in. In fact we see football nowadays being dominated by super teams and the scenario of underdog winning is a bit less favourable, or at least my take on it.
Caree magique is far from a perfect system from historical perspective. It’s hardly a system that dominated the game, yet we see here dominating GOAT forwards and defenders. Makes little sense if you ask me.
Just going from the caf vote so far there is a clear distinction between a back line of Buffon, Figueroa and Baresi and what the opposition is. You say the margin is not that big but it’s still a margin. The margin between the attackers is even bigger and yet its hardly taken into consideration.
It’s probably a new draft trend to value lesser players as they are most likely to not create ‘issues’ on the pitch compared to those who have more of a character or that’s how I understand it, but in reality Messi’s Barca and Ronaldo’s real are far from perfect sides in historical point of view.
You mention Messi, but again he’s not the only one making a difference here. Cristina k in the air has big advantage over Scirea and Figo is one of the best crossers of the ball(same with Brehme on the other side). Romario is still one of the greatest box strikers and Desailly as a stopper (older Desailly) is hardly the best fit to contain him.
I see more focus in finding issues in our side than looking at the actual match up if I’m really blunt here.
