Congratulations on the win
@Pat_Mustard
Respect that you didn't try to replace Charles/Keegan. Good luck going forward.
Thanks mate.
Is this the furthest Keegan made it in the drafts?
I think I had some relative success with him in 4-4-2, but I can’t remember which stage I got eliminated at.
You took him all the way to a final actually, in a brilliant 4-4-2:

I'll probably have to break up that Keegan/Charles partnership in the reinforcements as I'm completely out of ideas as to how to improve the team with this pool. There's every chance I'll end up making my team worse in the process though.
@Pat_Mustard I had a look of a bit of the Souness video and he did play as DM/DLP that game.
My question though is it peak Souness? I was very surprised to see that he was the top scorer in the European Cup in the 1980/81 season with 6 goals in 8 games although I don't know how many were set pieces.
I've read somewhere that Souness has said that he played the best football of his career at Sampdoria, although he was in his 30s at the time. Honestly, if I was building around Souness I'd prefer him in a more B2B role, but I do think his most notable qualities were shielding the defence, breaking up play and passing from deep rather than his attacking surges. Maybe
@Gio could weigh in on his style of play and best role.
His 6 goals in that European Cup campaign were a pair of hat-tricks vs a Finnish team and then CSKA Sofia, with just one penalty. Some superb finishes by him vs Sofia:
