All Time Great Managers Draft

[Synco]

Surprisingly, the entire Ajax school has lost out.

Spoiler

 

[Physiocrat]

 

[Jim Beam]

Sjor - Tomislav Ivic

 

[Gio]

Lovely spread. Will be an engaging draft to follow.

 

[Enigma_87]

Out of curiosity did anyone else choose Happel @Synco @Physiocrat ?

 

[crappycraperson]

No one chose Cryuff or Pep! My first instinct was try to recreate dream team but then went a different way.

None of my 4 choices were picked by anyone else

1) Bela Guttmann
2) Cryuff
3) Helenio Herrera
4) Rinus Michel

Nope

Almost all managers were first picks, Happel too. If not for @Himannv, this draft would have taken place without SAF.

 

[crappycraperson]

Lower half in draft again

Yeah, the lack of Ajax/Barca coaches is a bit of a pity. Would have thought Herrera is nailed on too.

 

[crappycraperson]

When are we blocking players and in which order?

 

[GodShaveTheQueen]

Way too many safe choices. Should have added a clause the managers career feats and honours will also be taken into account.

 

[Enigma_87]

Nope

Cheers.

Shame Michels is also missing, would've loved to see how a such game between recreational sides of those two would pan out.

 

[Synco]

Drafting starts now, but the first deadline starts tomorrow at 10am GMT.

After that it's the 4/8 hours rule from the OP.

 

[Synco]

Important: Your pick from the GOAT list has to be pick #1.

If there's no interesting player on it for you, you can pick anyone else. But you'll then have no access to the GOAT list until reinforcements. (RR rules are in the OP now.)

First few drafters: @Michaelf7777777 @Himannv @Enigma_87 @Raees @harms (please see post above as well.)

 

[Synco]

Here are the GOAT restrictions again:

Perma-blocked:
Pele, Maradona, Messi

One pick for each poster from this list:
Beckenbauer, Baresi, Figueroa, Nesta, Maldini, Facchetti
Rijkaard, Matthäus
Di Stefano, Platini
Cruyff, Puskas, Zico, Gullit, Best, Garrincha, C. Ronaldo, Eusebio
Fenomeno, Müller, Van Basten

Ugh in the middle.

I think blocking the players that played under the manger influenced things.

 

[Synco]

bite.

Was close, I admit.

 

[Gio]

Ugh in the middle.

I think I’ve been 13th in about 50% of drafts. There must be some glitch over at random.com

[P-Nut]

I didn't go safe, just thought it was an interesting choice given his tactics haven't really been seen at the top level before this season.

[Synco]

I didn't go safe, just thought it was an interesting choice given his tactics haven't really been seen at the top level before this season.

Same with Favre (at least during the period I'm thinking of).

No idea if it's never been done like that before, but the mix of elements is pretty special.

 

[Enigma_87]

@Raees

 

[Moby]

Pretty shocked with harms choice.

 

[harms]

Pretty shocked with harms choice.

 

[Synco]

First deadline starts now - @Raees has time until 2pm GMT for his pick.

I’ll try and post all my picks with Physio as well, since you Europeans don’t play at normal American times.

Perhaps obvious, but also ask another drafter to take your pick. Physio may not be around at times.

 

[Šjor Bepo]

Hope everyone dedicates small part in their tactics for choosen manager and his playing style.

 

[Jim Beam]

You just write mini Mourinho.

 

[Raees]

I’ll go with Baresi.
