The Daredevil Draft | Winner - Enigma

[Pat_Mustard]

We're averaging a pick every 2 and a half hours for the CL drafting which isn't actually bad given that it's research-intensive.

 

[Šjor Bepo]

usually id love to drop from coropa but found 2 brilliant fits for the team and one player that i wanted to pick for ages

 

[GodShaveTheQueen]

I am sorry @Pat_Mustard , I was looking forward to the games as well and I was planning to mandate that the OP should only be about the 2 new players (which I guess would have crashed the roof )

But some absolutely seem to have no interest and that would probably make the round pointless and leave them disappointed of the efforts they put in initial drafting which is not good.

Lets carry on with the changed rules.

[Pat_Mustard]

I was looking forward to dominating Picchi with Hrubesch

Hrubesch was an option for Bepo and I when we were considering going Boris' aerial monsters route in a previous draft. Somewhat surprised he was never picked before.

Love it

I'll start planning for the changed rules but still holding out hope we go the righteous route

 

[Enigma_87]

Thought it was a good thing tbh. Was looking forward to my second pick too. Think we're only 4 picks away to complete the round or it's done and dusted?

@GodShaveTheQueen

 

[Jim Beam]

I was looking forward to introducing "Zeko" though.

Let's take a break and maybe give it a second thought scrappy.

@GodShaveTheQueen

Got my pick here. We’ll probably have the drafting complete tonight

 

[GodShaveTheQueen]

Okay, lets wait for 1 more day. If drafting finishes, lets go the original away.

@2mufc0 , are you any closer to making your picks mate?

 

[GodShaveTheQueen]

Guys, please go ahead with the drafting.

Hopefully, @2mufc0 can find some picks, if not, might be forced to promote @Šjor Bepo to this league.

@Gio , please post your pick.

[P-Nut]

@GodShaveTheQueen I moan a lot, but I'm fully OK with the concept and think the games should be interesting, it's just a different tactical fit that is needed which is fine and makes a change to every player being perfect. Please don't take my moaning to heart too much.

 

[Jim Beam]

In fact, right after this one we should have another draft with players who never appeared in any draft before.

One of the elite Italian defenders and a pillar of Grande Inter side that won the European Cup twice and Serie A 3 times on the trot. The more physical side to Picchi - Aristide Guarneri.

[Himannv]

Well, I'm glad we're back on track. I love my team dammit.

@Zlatan 7

Thanks

just had to catch up and read the last two pages, I’ll pick two players but don’t even know if I should be anymore

 

[Pat_Mustard]

What's the general stance on picking a goalkeeper? Act of a lily-livered coward or fair game?

It’s not allowed either way, but probably the former

 

[Pat_Mustard]

It’s not allowed either way, but probably the former

I don't know how I've failed to read the rules quite so abjectly but, yeah, if I had to ask the question then I probably already knew the answer . I'll pick shortly. Just weighing up a safe straight swap vs something a bit more daring.

[Jim Beam]

Those are lovely two picks Pat

In other words, get the feck away in the possible draw!

 

[Šjor Bepo]

wait, Magath was never picked!? Thats some pick!

Cheers lads! Don't worry Jim, I'm highly confident my tactical masterplan will be easily foiled.

 

[2mufc0]

I'm really sorry guys I'm in the middle of a house move while working full time, it's just this round needs quite a lot of attention which I can't give, I'm checking my inbox now and thanks everyone who sent in players, will post picks shortly.
