Pelé always said that Zizinho was the best player he ever saw. "He was a complete player. He played in midfield, in attack, he scored goals, he could mark, head and cross."

A never-nude? I thought he just liked cut-offs.
You guys got lucky. He was my first pick as well.
Thank feck for that. I would have been gutted to miss out on him again. At the risk of turning this into a big circle jerk, Zizinho and Albert are great first picks too. Albert in particular I thought might have been the first pick of the draft.

Number 9 pool is never shallow :D
:lol: There's a few out there that have been known to score the occasional goal I admit ;)

remind me to vote for you, when the matches start
Heh, I will!

Been wanting to draft him for ever, but there hasn't been too many opportunities. This time around the scene should be set, and he should at least get a fair opportunity to shine a little bit.

Hopefully I'll be able to build something around him to help him do that, we'll see how it turns out.

I hope "that" player will be picked
Phil Jones, you mean? He's not eligible.

Should be, though, as birth dates and such mean little in his case. It's like saying Siddhartha Gautama was "born" around 480 BC (or whenever).

Or, say, Homer Simpson. When was he born? And does it matter?

You should have just cut straight to the point and post this video:

He got a good reception in the Euros draft and it's nice to see him feature again in this draft. Great pick, no doubt.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. And Phil Jones

Aye, well - they're all nice picks at this stage. Question is how they end up fitting in, I s'pose.

I have a couple of ideas as to how he can be used in somewhat different set-ups, which could be a factor. Picking him - for me, at least - means trying to drag his arse as far into the thing as possible. Which probably means that you have to sell him in more than one (set) role. But I think he can be fairly versatile here (within reason, of course).
