Yeah superb defender but he doesn't fit well with Vierchowod like Kohler imo.
MARCEL DESAILLY
I didn't predict any of those picks. Not one.Theon won the lottery there.
Surely you predicted Romario since I was never going to go for him?I didn't predict any of those picks. Not one.
I didn't predict the four picks after the first one I made.Surely you predicted Romario since I was never going to go for him?
I'm surprised you think you can get away with Rodriguez at left back yet again. It's ridiculous really.
What did you predict?I didn't predict the four picks after the first one I made.
Meh, it was the best situation we could have gone for and I don't think it's a huge issue, given the rest of the team. Sammer was a blow. But yeah, not sure your teams that defensively sound itself so I'd spare the critique
Who else? It was either him or Carlos, but wanted defensive awareness too so went with my beloved Pupi. Don't see anything wrong with him as my LBI thought that this should've been like that but then I don't know why Zanetti.
There are better leftbacks available, but none of them are called Zanetti.I thought that this should've been like that but then I don't know why Zanetti.
Zanetti as left back? When Junior is available? He can do a job there, but I would rather take Junior or Lizarazu there. Bad choice from Viva, imo.There are better leftbacks available, but none of them are called Zanetti.
I think you are going for too much physicality. With Seedorf and Breitner there, a better choice (imo) would have been Cerezo/Alonso/Deschamps kind of player. Alonso may not be a vote winner as Keane, but in that role flanked by Seedorf & Breitner, his creativity and passing would have been much more valuable than Keane's box-to-box...and he is a specialist DM too. A diamond with any of those 3 at base would be far more effective than Keane imo.Nah it has nothing to do with knowing better, it's just a question of ideas and opinions. I think Breitner-Seedorf offer Keane a bit more freedom in choosing the time to push forward. If he doesn't, he'll have someone who will do it instead of him and you can definitely trust him to do the defensive role, and if he does pushes forward you'll have either of Breitner/Seedorf who both have tremendous defensive abilities and awareness to cover for him. imo you can't ask for more balance in your midfield, doesn't lake work rate, creativity is fine with the added part from two of Enzo/Savicevic/Rummenigge, defensive awareness is top notch. The complete package.
Maybe if I qualify to the finals I'll change Seedorf and Keane and bring on a more defensive midfielder, maybe go for Sammer or Davids or someone in that defensive calibre, but that will be just a tactical change, I think my current midfield is as balanced as it comes.
Worst case scenario, I end up against a team like anto which has a classic #10 like Baggio there. Well, its definitely not the best thing for my team but I'm sure Keane had his fair share of games where SAF instructed him to be a little more defensive minded and keep a guy out of the game, Keane could definitely do that. It might not take his best qualities into the entire match but it does the business.. It's pretty much like we talked about Scirea as the CB, if he has the right attributes for being a top notch defender, he'll be a top notch defender even if you limit his attacking.
Well predict is the wrong word, I never actually sat down and tried to guess the picks. I thought you would have gotten Roberto Carlos though. I think he fits your team really well and I didn't ever think you would have gone for Zanetti at left back.What did you predict?
ExactlyZanetti at left back, when Cabrini, Carlos, Lizarazu, Evra, Briegel, Cole were all available is a really strange choice. Whatever type of leftback you want, there was a better option available.
Balu already answered for me. He isn't a liability but you could've have literally any type of a natural LB, and you chose RB that could do a job. Your choice though. He isn't going to be a liability, just that, I think, there were better choices available.Who else? It was either him or Carlos, but wanted defensive awareness too so went with my beloved Pupi. Don't see anything wrong with him as my LB
