I was surprised too, considered him, but went for pre-66 Chislenko. But still, there are very few better options for right wing.
The UEFA Euro Fantasy Draft
- Thread starter Balu
- Start date
Saturday it is for you guys.
Noted.That works. Looking forward to it.
Schedule:
Sunday: 1. Aldo vs Skizzo & Pat
Monday: 1.
Tuesday: 1.
Wednesday: 1.
Thursday: 1. The Stain vs Šjor Bepo & Physiocrat
Friday: 1. crappy vs Pedro 2. ctp vs Joga Bonito
Saturday: 1. Stobzilla vs Team EAP
If nothing else works we can play the 3 games on Friday. But I really think it'll hurt the games. Fewer people will participate in the discussion, because it's a lot to read and to talk about. Especially because it's a theme where we have lesser known players and very specific stories to tell. And it would fall on the same day as @Joga Bonito 's 'extended' write-upsI'm okay all week except Thursday and the weekend. @Theon is exactly the opposite, I think
@crappycraperson @PedroMendez @ctp @Joga Bonito
Hate to ask you guys, but is there a chance for any of you to move the game?
. Now that I think of it, Joga's games should always be played on a separate day so that everyone has the time to appreciate his work. (It's not a joke by the way, I for one love reading his walls of text).

@Paolo Di Canio is that alright with you? And that is a suggestion Balu as I can't seem to get hold of Gio or him atm.
would you be okay with saturday? THe problem is, that I have a big work thing on thursday and it would be very hard to find time for anything before thats done.
And it would fall on the same day as @Joga Bonito 's 'extended' write-ups
At least your PM's are much shorter
I'm gonna have to count the words in your message from the previous draft final tactics
Got a couple ways to line up in this, i have confused myself, again.
That's very nice of you.

friday is okay.
I just saw that our big red123 is banned. Did @Stobzilla provoke him into doing something really silly? .
Not really sure what to do now. I guess, if he's banned for good, @The Red Viper gets a pass to the next round.

I can take over his team for the round. You can let TRV get a free pass to the next round. In my opinion TRV should get the decision whether he wants to play it or go straight into the next round.I just saw that our big red123 is banned. Did @Stobzilla provoke him into doing something really silly?

IMO it should always be the managers decision whether or not he accepts that some random person comes in and takes over the team.
thanks Balu & Raess

Yeah, fair enough. I'm not a big fan of these games, but if @The Red Viper wants to play, you've got the job.
Does anyone know if he's banned for good or only got a temp ban ? Can I ask someone about that? /edit. I'm talking about big red123 's ban of course.
On Raul, he has a relatively poor record at the Euros. Didn't feature in 1996 (although he probably should have), missed the last-minute penalty that knocked Spain out in 2000, his team under-achieved in 2004, and he was out of the picture by the time the Euro 2008 generation came along.
I can't remember Seedorf doing that much in 1996. Agree on Beckham though.
Alternatively if TRV is OK, you can consider @coolredwine if he is interested. He's been helping me, but if he can get his own team, I don't mind him stepping in.
@brewlio permed him, dunno why
Players on my list who were unlucky not to get the call:
Ziege/Zhirkov - excellent at Euro 96/08
Seitaridis - best full-back at Euro 2004
Maniche - one who suffered from not having a good enough reputation despite some match-winning performances in 2004
Orsi - already mentioned, but has to be one of the outstanding left-wingers in the pool
Deak - his goal record throughout his career and in the Dr Gero is fantastic
Arshavin - same as Maniche really, or Brolin earlier.
Glad to see Senna, McManaman and Eilts recognised towards the death there.

You guys are the Game of Thrones of draft.
Thought he was alright in 2000 but yeah, he is not a striking omission or anything as there are plenty of forwards, who showed more than him in the Euros, lying around.
Orsi was the one which surprised me tbh. Thought he would have been a top 3-4 pick myself as he is pre 68, won 2 CEICs, was probably the best winger/outside of his era and is amongst the top 4-5 LWs in this draft.
McM made semis with me in British/Irish draft.... and 2 votes short of finals. Very useful player to have in our team imo.
elaborate.
Big red123 hahaha, it was only a matter of time.
Can only speak of the Euro 96 game v England but he was the most influential dutch player in that side and arguably the only one who showed up. Gascoigne shat on all of them but Seedorf was central to all of Netherland's good moves and always was looking to control the game on his own.
