Welcome to the Duos & Partnerships draft where drafters were tasked with creating a team of players who had been in a partnership at one stage in their career - whether internationally or at club level. Obvious examples such as Torres & Gerrard or Hansen & Lawrenson.

Please judge the following teams and players on their ability as a partnership for the club and/or country they have played for together and NOT as individuals -

Even I voted for SPS/XabiArt, they have the best team in the draft to be honest.

Bump.  First match is looking tight.
Sit down, shock is better taken with bent knees.

Your experimental no midfield formation didn't quite appeal to the masses  :D

You just needed a couple of solid DMs in there to finish that side off. Easier said than done in that last round though!


Anyway, congrats to Lastrador, SPS/Xabi, Vishwa & Tubby. Now what to do about the draw between 4 and Samie in the other half of the draw.... maybe an 'iron man' one hour poll, but I'm out soon for the match and I doubt many others will be about too.

I saw it and I declined it. None of this chivalrous crap in drafts.
