@Polaroid
Could you edit the final draft list with all the players into the op, so that we don't have to look through the pages to find it? It's not that big a problem, but it would be helpful, I guess.
Really didn't want to play TITO btw., his defense is awesome
. (Can we redo the draw? NM hasn't showed up once so far, and I'm sure I would have had more luck with my name instead of his 
. Just kidding of course).

Not like this, though. You can look at the two teams and see how it nullifies all my advantages and puts him in the driver seat.
Was hoping to at least try my hand at the 4 reinforcements. Oh well
Cristiano vs Messi in the 1st round? fix
Hah! Hopefully that won't be the focus
I will love it, love it if I knock out Anto in the first round
I will love it, love it if I knock out Anto in the first round
I don't envy you. Not because I fear Anto's team but his onslaught when the match starts.
Also didn't want to face you either. You've assembled a very good team indeed. (I fear your arrows!)@Polaroid

Should be a great match though.
I would rather face him than Pol.
Yes, should be fun. I also fear my arrows
. I'm still voting for implementing the rule that everyone has to use at least 3 arrows in the formation graph so that my 5-6 arrows won't look that ridiculous I'll be throwing one or two in, for sure.Yes, should be fun. I also fear my arrows
As Pol is the organizer, I'd reveal my starting line up before the game. I might redo the graphic later on but this is how it will be.
Interesting draw!
I'll do the same, I have too much fun talking about the teams with all the exciting players to keep my starting lineup a big secret for the next 2 weeks. With only 12 players in the team, I don't think there'll be much surprises anyway for the first round games.
/edit:
okay, there's one in your team, you're benching Hidegkuti?
Probable lineup:
Jayvin's front two.
I'm pretty happy to be facing a crap team.
Heh shit joke.
Heh shit joke.
May aswell stick me down for this11 too
I'm for this11
Theon v Gio and Pol v Aldo
Poor Desert, having to put up with Cal? banging on about them two.I will love it, love it if I knock out Anto in the first round
And there I was making all the picks for you and ensuring I never forwarded them to anyone who could pick your second choices... Kevin.And so the underrating of the Underdogs begins. It's certainly not the worst draw for either team, but I would have preferred not to face a big modern name side.I would rather face him than Pol.
Can I just confirm, since I'm team 4, I need to line up my team from top to bottom?
As in:
-------GK
DR--Dc--Dc--DL
Rather than
DL--Dc--Dc-DR
------GK

Of course he isn't, no one in their right mind would play Danilo ahead of Hidegkuti. Either Ballack drops to a midfield pair or Stiles sits behind Ballack and Hidegkuti.
Edit: Actually, he HAS to play Danilo. Oh boy.
Hidegkuti is off for this one.
I assume it's the other way around? Surely teams face each other rather than give each other their backs?
Look at your examples, it should be that way, odd starts from GK-ST and even from ST-GK.
Yeah, need a bit more balance in here given how strong Pol's midfield is.

Because of the pre/post/continent/winner restrictions or because you really think it's the best way to go? Hidegkuti and Romario looked like a brilliant pair to me.
It's a choice between Hidegkuti and Stiles. Hiddegkuti definitely adds more in attack, though.
My first instinct was to go with a stronger middle of the park to contest the midfield battle. Your point of the partnership up front is valid as well, though so it might not be as obvious as I thought. Guess I'll think some more.
