Will pick soon, just waking up.
2021 Sheep Draft
- Thread starter Michaelf7777777
- Start date
Doing some research on my sheep here - English language sources provide very little information.
But I did find something in French which I will milk shamelessly if it should become necessary:
When Kopa returned to Reimes (after his Real Madrid stint), he apparently insisted that the club also brought back Glovacki (who was then at Saint-Étienne - but who had played for Reimes from 1952 to 1957). They then went on to win the league.
So, basically - Glovacki was better than Kopa. End of story.
Alternatively Kopa and Glovacki were great drinking buddies - and he insisted on bringing him back for that reason.

Glad to have avoided the Messi train
I'll take that. I didn't think everyone would go for Messi and there would be way more blocks
Good, theme still on track.
Pleased with that.
Some heavy names added to the block list - good.
Would like some sheep distributed this round too - but the pool is pretty deep.

also, major international tournaments
That was a risky move from my side. If repeating again, I'd have gone with my original pick and get one random player, instead of risking being caught on that game.
Who's left to submit?
@Himannv has slightly more than 3 hours

Defo getting a fluffy one in this round
sent
I must be the only non playing member excited for the pass players results, especially since I don't know who all are available. Sheep drafts are fun to follow even as an audience.
Based on the first couple of rounds, the criteria seem to be really well thought out even though simple enough. Good start @Michaelf7777777

Put me out of my misery
Can we cut down the times moving forward? 24 hours and then 12 and then 6 seems reasonable rather than 2 full days per round
I agree even if I would go for 16.5 hours, then 7.75 hours, and then 5.29 hours!

He shouldn't, I requested one
Really? The pool is massive for this round you could definitely pick up a decent player by just dropping down the tiers a bit.He shouldn't, I requested one

Pletikosa is not a sheep!!
Also, I’m so happy. I couldn’t decide between Schnellinger and Rivera so I asked my friend who knows nothing about football to pick a name haha
Blame it on the beer for playing fast and loose with the criteria in Pick 3.
Figueroa, Cristiano, Laudrup - some cracking picks that round.
I actually checked out Figueroa but didn't think he was eligible.
