Yeah it is. Probably the best period packed with GOAT level players or close to it. Doesn't overlap with most managers as well.

In hindsight 42-47 was probably the best pool but wanted Pele and some lads born in 1940 as most likely in the first 3-4 picks most great forwards would be gone.
51-56 was my favorite span also 60-65 but 60-65 overlapped with a lot of managers.

71-76 seems better than both tbh.

Was looking at the 60's but with everyone picking Lattek, Trap and Capello would've decimated the best players in the first two rounds. Especially when you consider the teams picked in Real, Barca and Milan. 39 is also very good year with some quality picks most likely going unchallenged.

Trap and Capello hit some of the 71-76 bunch as well though.

That's why I settled on 51-56. Bit sad I didn't stick with that gamble actually even though the next 10 days are really busy for me so I'll end up happier with this Eng idea I have in the end

It's been 4 or 5 hrs since we started drafting and we are near bottom already. Your turn will be up soon.

And that's the trade off for being at ends. Long intervals but get paired picks.
Yeah I know, just getting impatient. Being first is great but I've got a feeling my list of preferred players is going to be really fecking small come my turn.
