I'm so gorgeous they want to put me under arrest!
What? I'd say he settled at CB and was double surprised to see him at LB.
Aye, he had stints in midfield as well I believe.

Yeah, somebody picked him before as CB but used him as an emergency CM (or planned to).Aye, he had stints in midfield as well I believe.
Great pick. I keep saying that box is underrated. You only need to know where to look/how to go about it.

Good pick. I had him at CB in the Tactical Draft and he got no love at all. Great player though.
Legacy player? Have I completely missed something important? I didn't see that in the rules.Next comes matches. In R1 leagcy player must play. If you clear R1, then 2 injuries...but no more star man/leacy players.
Both of them are done drafting I think. We just need draw now.Ho-hum...
Controversial?
First roll is a 7, second roll is a 6, but since Enigma goes first I'd assume it is

Jammy fecks catching me in a good mood.

Legacy player is the player assigned to you by previous manager, Nelinho in your case. He must play round 1.Legacy player? Have I completely missed something important? I didn't see that in the rules.

Cheers. Enjoyed that myself. Used to watch that Valencia side with the likes of Villa, Silva (Ffs we really should have bought him), Mata and Pablo Hernandez (wonder what on earth happened to him).
Anyway fair to say Villa is arguably the greatest Spanish forward of all time, or at the very least for Spain, given Raul.
No way we should steal Edgar's thunder there.We're done drafting at this stage mate, all teams have 14 players - time for the draw
aye, let's have 'em.No way we should steal Edgar's thunder there.
I'll give you some entertainment I wrote up in my Shadow Wank combo for now.
Ah I see. That's okay, I was planning on using him anyway.Legacy player is the player assigned to you by previous manager, Nelinho in your case. He must play round 1.
I would actually rather have the Heinze squad. Should survive a R1 and the Guardiola option is far more valuable going forward. Could always play Popescu if the defence needs strengthening.fecking Heinze poor @P-Nut0712 ....

Point of the exercise was showing how you can come out better off even with a poorer legacy assignment.
@antohan .For the Futre one if you had Forster instead of Abidal would have been even better.
My favorite one with Popescu at the base of the midfield diamond (although in that sweeper role is purely semantics).
I'd have preferred Heinze to be a LCB in a back three tbh. He's vulnerable there with Krol bombing forward.
I'm sure that @Moby will have issue with Lucio bombing forward himself too
Excellent keeper. I could have picked Iribar whom Spaniards rate somewhat higher due to his Euro 64 win but deliberately opted for Arconada.i like the Futre team more, better and more balanced. Heinze Lucio pairing with a crap gk and Pep at DM with flying WB no matter how good they are and they are fecking great would get roosted by a good attack.
edit: gk actually looks decent on paper, first time heard about him tbh
Enzo was more important going forward than Forster. You can't win with Futre as SS. That's the sort of R1 risk I always take.
He showed his ability to stay disciplined at Inter and his pace is a very useful asset.
yeah both teams are quite close in terms of style, so the transition is easier. Have to say the first one looks much more robust defensively tho and with Futre instead of Heinze the quality of the team receives a good boost.Again, could be starting Popescu instead but didn't want to muddle things up too much. The point is the blueprint and tactical options more than "best XI against imaginary opposition".
BTW, you do realise I dropped both Nesta and Förster, don't you? Doubt anyone got shafted as badly as I was.
I got that right during the drafting phase. Was sure you'll pick him being one of your favorites and landing on couple of boxes he qualifies for.
We had a game in one of the drafts where I was using that version saying the same. Think it was during the time you were off tho.

TBF I picked Nesta fully aware that Skizzo would make me drop him. I was protecting Pupi and deliberately prioritised him over Krol as the plan all along was to then pick Krol rather than having him blocked.Yup, think we had similar bad luck tbh. We've dropped Iniesta and Eto'o, but were lucky enough to replace them with Luisito, Kalle/Villa.
