I find his 2014 world cup performance underrated.

Read the below stats somewhere a while back

Goals scored - 4 (highest 6)
Chances created - highest
Through balls - Highest along with an Italian genius
Dribbles finished - 46 (2nd highest was 29) (Maradona had 50 in 1986)

Maybe wouldn't be my 8th pick as well, but still a very good pick.
If Argentina would have won that world cup, maybe the rhetoric would have been different.
Hmm I think he had a good tournament and was one of the best players there. But it's very forgettable in an all-time context when there are a few dozen others who have had comparable performance portfolios.

Guess that is fair enough.
But he will escalate a hell lot of notches above if he manages to get you know who. Would definitely be a R1 quality pick then.

Its easy to forget the shit midfield, the bang average defense and the unbalanced attack he had alongside.

If he had to win, it would have been on his own. Of course, his miss at 0-0 in the final is where he loses huge points.

Personally I find Messi 2014 to be overrated by many football fans. I don't even think he deserved to win Golden ball that tournament. I would have given it to Neuer. But I would leave that debate for that draft thread.

Baggio is a fecking great pick and I’m surprised he lasted that long. I was originally going to take him once Maradona went and had convinced myself that no one would take fenomeno before it got back to me and I could Pair them together :drool:

Then I realized how stupid that plan was and took the easy way out by selecting Pelé.

Thuram in there aswell is a damn fine start to this draft when we consider we are judging players based on the selected WC performances and you have a plethora of video evidence due them being more modern day. Well played sir.

Thanks, kind of obvious pick for 2010 IMO
Yeah, as we discussed earlier, with Messi they make a brilliant pair. Surprised that no one picked Xavi from the bottom managers tbf

Interesting that @Moby used his break so early. Hoped to snatch Puskas as a 1962 pick, although crappy would've probably picked him next.
Just rewatched their game against England, and it still amazes me how modern they look — pretty much a perfect Pep's team of today.

Have a question regarding the chain.

Lets say the chain goes like this with only 1 break available.

1994 - 1990 - BREAK - 1970 - 1974 - 1978 - 1982 - 1986 - What next after this?

You will have to buy a break; that is lose your first pick. It is upto the manager to make sure he can draft within the rules of the draft.
