Yup the pool is feckin cracking. 5-6 GOAT material picks and 10 or so brilliant picksThere's a good enough pool. It's just a matter of whether you take a risk, play it safe, risk letting someone else get this guy or that guy.
That's why it's fun on this side for once
The Second RedCafe Sheep Draft
- Thread starter Skizzo
- Start date
-
In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
It never stopped me.
Be a AM to some manager. Can provide inputs and get inside scoop on which players are rated and not.
GOATs will definitely be blocked. One of secondary may slip through first attempt, but 2nd will wipe it clean.
That's actually a good point.
So, is anyone looking for an assistant manager? Anyone mind mentoring me like how van Gaal and Sir Robson mentored Mourinho?
Now I see you everywhereThat's actually a good point.

Yup, this is my typical busy-bee-in-the-Caf period. Wait a couple of months, and I'll be almost nonexistent hereNow I see you everywhere
.Definitely agree. I've already thought of some really nice picks here. This isn't really that bad of a pool for the first pick. And that's me without any research.
Take over my team and I will be your AM if you want. Not that you will need one, you'll get the hang of it quickly!That's actually a good point.

Will they though?
Yeah, like Messi last time, in the 2nd round of this criterion

That was a great moment.My apologies to whoever I have just blocked.
Sorry, mate. I've already received and accepted an offer from Stob. I'm sure you can do well yourself. You're quite good at these drafts, anyways.
Especially since we are both out of the Fifa tournamentYup, this is my typical busy-bee-in-the-Caf period. Wait a couple of months, and I'll be almost nonexistent here
Don't remind me of that. I just want to move on and have fun in this resurrected draft. I've spectated several of these already, and they look quite fun, but I'm afraid that I'll restrict myself to the draft favourites rather than be innovative.Especially since we are both out of the Fifa tournament
Never know until you try it. I was reluctant at first. Sometimes you try drafting a certain. way and it fails, but you're happy with the team you drafted. Other times luck carries you through. Some drafts are drafting friendly...others are carnage like EAP 's reality draft.
I need at least two more days to think this through
They don't come more innovative than me, you'll learn from the Sven Eriksson of caf drafting.
No shame in the quarter finals.
This draft, there's nothing to think through. Just pray.I need at least two more days to think this through
I'm measuring up every possibility. Got tree diagrams and all sort of shit going on.
I'm getting a sheep this time
That's the spirit.I'm getting a sheep this time
The idea that we won't know who have been picked until the end of all 3 tries is both evil and excellent. It will lead to a lot more sheep I think.
Walk in the park that. Mmmm, can't wait to see the carnage. The good thing about sheep drafts also is you can shadow them, I have a firm pick in mind!
I'm getting a sheep this time
I'm counting on having as many sheep as possible in my team. Going for an "all time sheep" theme.
Yeah, like Messi last time, in the 2nd round of this criterion
I have a feeling someone big will slip through this time as well.I actually picked him than changed last time
@Skizzo if you get all picks before the deadline you'll post it and advance forward right?
How many yet to submit Skiz?
I haven't submitted, but I will today. Probably after the game.
@sajeev is finally playing? Awesome!
will choose a combination of 11-12 players, no one would rate other than me of course. will get booted out in the first round of matches. but will be fun drafting
btw can i bounce some names off you?
By all means mate. I haven't done (and won't do) any research, but happy to help with assessments/fit, etc. Mind you, I was the only one who ended up with a sheep in the first round last time out
cool, will pm you once i am done with my researchBy all means mate. I haven't done (and won't do) any research, but happy to help with assessments/fit, etc. Mind you, I was the only one who ended up with a sheep in the first round last time out
That's because you went head on against Balu without considering your own game! LegendBy all means mate. I haven't done (and won't do) any research, but happy to help with assessments/fit, etc. Mind you, I was the only one who ended up with a sheep in the first round last time out
I hope you get a sheep and I can nominate Joe Cole. Terry is just too good.
