That's how I pictured @Edgar Allan Pillow 's face when he saw your comment about date of birth
40s Retro Football Fantasy Draft | Finished
- Thread starter Moby
- Start date

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
I'm impressed by him. Never paid attention to him in much detail and at least got the opportunity to do so now. Would love to have him in a future draft.I was going to make a write-up for you on him and the first thing I saw was his date of birth.
Warming the snake oil for a future draft already...very clever.
He was incredible, can't wait for him to be picked!

Pedro Rocha: Stylish, languid midfielder and striker whose skill and goals took him to four World Cups with Uruguay
The exquisitely skilful Uruguayan attacker Pedro Rocha was billed as the man most likely to deal an early blow to England's dreams of footballing glory in the opening match of the 1966 World Cup finals at Wembley.
In the event the contest was a drab, goalless stalemate which Alf Ramsey's men placed thankfully behind them on the way to confounding their countless doubters and lifting the Jules Rimet trophy on home soil that summer. But there were enough stylish touches from Rocha – who was prominent in Uruguay's progress to the quarter-finals, where they lost to West Germany – to underline his burgeoning reputation as a world-class talent.
Whether performing as a midfield link man or as an out-and-out striker, the Uruguayan moved with a casual and sinuous grace, at his best seeming to drift past opponents at will, displaying control, imagination and precision at the creative core of the team. There was dynamite as well as silk in the Rocha repertoire, and he was capable of erupting suddenly and explosively, delivering powerful shots with either foot. His critics accused him of slowing the play unduly, but if his style could seem languid, still it was a delight to the eye.
Having entered the senior game with Penarol as a 17-year-old in 1959, Rocha soon hit the heights, excelling as the Montevideo side won the Uruguayan championship that season, then seven more times before his 1970 switch to Sao Paulo of Brazil. His Penarol haul also included three triumphs in Copa Libertadores, South Amercia's leading club competition, and victory over Real Madrid in the world club championship of 1966.
He was a success with his new club, too, wielding immense influence as they lifted the state titles of 1971 and '75 and took the national crown for the first time in '77, after which his career wound down with brief stints at three more Brazilian clubs – Coritiba, Palmeiras and Bangu – and Deportivo Neza of Mexico.
Rocha, who retired in 1980, collected the first of his 52 full caps in 1961, scored 17 goals for his country and figured in the World Cup final tournaments of 1962, '66, '70 and '74, the first Uruguayan to complete such a quartet. Later he coached in Japan.

That long list of great players is now dwindling down to an (albeit excellent) 5 a side team. Some lovely 6th round picks here.
I didn't really like any of my options for my next pick, but warmed up to one, only one. Please don't make me hate you, ctp.
I'm undecided at the moment anyway. Give me a hint and I won't pick your player.
Dangerous ground. Tell me the positions you're thinking about to calm my nerves or make it even worse. Just do something, flip a coin.
Centre back / defensive mid
As Balu isn't giving any hints, I'll just go ahead with my pick. My team is joined by the Blond Rock, Hungarian legend Kálmán Mészöly.

I don't really know yet where he'll play, but I love to have his versatility in my side and he's quality everywhere in the backline and not too bad in midfield either.
To do something useful with one of these silly pesstats sides, the positions he can actually play on a high level:
Country: Italy
Club: Juventus F.C.
Position: *SB, CB, WB, SMF, DMF, AMF, CMF, SS
I'm not sure what some of them mean, but so what. Welcome to the team:

@Invictus
Player with great athletic and physical ability, called the "lungs" of the Netherlands because he worked tirelessly around the field, pushing, stealing balls up, in short, a complete player and copy that was one of the architects with the Johan Cruyff called "Clockwork Orange." Neeskens international debut was at 19 years and wore the shirt on 49 occasions for Dutch. From humble beginnings, started in football from an early age and at fifteen years and was known in the second division team in his hometown. There he found the coach Rinus Michels, a few years later, he joined Ajax Amsterdam, with whom he would win three European Cups, two Dutch League, one Intercontinental Cup and Super Cup. If Ajax had coincided with the great Johan Cruyff in 1974 moved with him to FC Barcelona for five years, which is still remembered by the fans. Then came the New York Cosmos. In 1985 he returned to play in Holland to retire from football a year later. In the 1974 Olympic Games Neeskens was a finalist with the Dutch team in a match against Germany in which the Dutch made the best game, but the Germans ended up taking his second world cup. Neeskens addition at this tournament was the top scorer with Polish Smarzach. In the Dutch 1978 world finalists were again, standing at the gates of the title a second time. For all these merits Neeskens is still regarded as one of the best Dutch players of all time. NEC is currently coach of the Dutch and the Dutch national team assistant during the 1998 World Cup and European Championship final.
Till now i thought he was and 50's player.
That driver's license. Genius move.

You made a mistake there. If he's born in '49, he would have been 21 when he gave his international debut against East Germany in 1970

.Oh snap! I thought I had every fooled..You made a mistake there. If he's born in '49, he would have been 21 when he gave his international debut against East Germany in 1970
Hahaha.
You guys are forcing me to go more offensive then I would have liked to.
Attack is the best defense
Is it? The past suggests not (Bayern 4-0 Barca, Barca 3-0 Bayern, Madrid 4-0 Bayern, Atletico 4-0 Real).
Get over your inner Mourinho and build a team to play beautiful football. You know you want it, feck defending.
feck off!!!!! he is mineI don't really know yet where he'll play, but I love to have his versatility in my side and he's quality everywhere in the backline and not too bad in midfield either.
