2. Alfredo Di Stéfano cannot be selected.
3. You can only select players who have at least 1 full match on the interwebz. Please post a valid link with each of your picks, and also note that footballia.net is intermittently offline because of copyright claims, which throws a spanner in the works:

4. Initial squads will be formed of 12 players.
5. Snake style drafting.
6. Picks will be timed to speed things up, but you will be afforded up to 8 hours to submit your selection. Please note that the manager with the lowest pick time will receive a special gift at the end of the initial drafting phase — that should be reason enough to rush. In case multiple managers have the same pick time, the winner/receiver-of-the-gift will be decided by randomization.
7. Once the pick is posted there is no going back. In case of an invalid selection, the next manager does not need to wait but the invalid pick can be replaced anytime.
8. Players will be judged on a career peak of 3 years.
9. As always, no naming of unpicked players!
Match Rules
1. There shall be no subs during the game, but tactical changes are permitted.
2. In the event of a draw, the winner shall be decided on the basis of Redcafe Goalkeeper Rankings. In case both goalkeepers are not on the list, the winner will be decided by a neutral.
Reinforcements
• Quarterfinal: Reverse snake style reinforcement from teams that lost their Round 1 matches. 2 players as reinforcement.
• Semifinal: Sheep style reinforcement from the pool of eliminated and unpicked-but-valid players. Maximum of 2 players as reinforcement.
• Final: Sheep style reinforcement from the pool of eliminated players, unpicked-but-valid players and players with no video evidence. Maximum of 1 player as reinforcement.
