Fantasy Draft: NoPace VS Pedro/Balu

[RoadTrip]

Surprised by the score. It's tough for me.

 

[Balu]

Strange game. I don't think I've ever had that many votes against my team without any explanation why. The only reason I read was that Suarez would dive and win a penalty to decide the game . 14 out of 15 users who voted against us haven't commented at all.

Anyway, good game @NoPace . Good luck in the next round.

Thanks to @PedroMendez who started as a brilliant assistant and in the end pretty much became the main manager of the team. Maybe we team up again in the future and do a better job then.

@NoPace: great game. Congratulation and good luck!

I enjoyed my first draft a lot and I am looking forward to participate in future ones again. Thanks to @Balu. It helped a lot, to be his assistant-manager.

Tough luck. Good team, bad opponent. noPace would probably be hard to beat now with enforcements

 

[NoPace]

Thanks @Balu and @PedroMendez. Good match.

If NoPace could get through up against those CB's he can go really far. Seems to be a good pairing up front in the voters eyes.

Surprised by the score too - or rather, the score doesn't reflect the debate in the match thread. I can see a couple of issues w/ Balu's/Pedro's team in terms of eye candy/vote pullers - that could explain much. For my money both teams are good - but in terms of balance I'd have given it to Balu/Pedro.

My side`s imbalance is a feature, not a bug.

Once I had Messi and Xavi, I wanted to make sure I had a side of runners and tacklers to get them the ball and get on to their passes. I wasn`t going to get the players I needed to tiki-taka past a team of the qualities built in this draft (Baggio on the break would have won too many votes), so I ended up with a side built for nullifying and nicking one.

It`s not a league, it`s a tournament.

You are over thinking. You will learn in time how drafts work on caf. Messi and Suarez's recent form won you the game.

Everytime I see Baggio in one of these draft games, I get the feeling he wins feck all votes. He couldn't even score against 'keeper' here . And he wasn't up against all time great defenders either.

I insist he would have been far aand away the best player on the pitch. No doubt in my mind about it.

I think it goes without saying at this stage that he's normally good for my vote at least! I don't know why he doesn't get as much credit as he deserves. Maybe just because he never played in a truly great side for club or country. The Juve side with Kohler, Ferrara, Andreas Moller etc was very good, but Milan were declining when he joined and Inter were more a collection of big names than a coherent team.
