Shame Overmars and van Bronckhorst didn't play for Arsenal at the same time. As they played for Barca and Holland together.

They could have been best buds.

Sorry all, had the kids for half term on Friday and then a bit of a mare of a weekend and just completely forgot about this

Sorry guys, been swamped all weekend, I'll make my catch up picks now.

And now?

The Wildcard - A Clean Slate

Did you really think it would be so easy to just pluck all your favourite partnerships in pairs? No, the last 5 rounds were simply a warm up to remind us all of some great combinations and get everyone on the same page. Our current teams will now be discarded and the draft order will be re-drawn each and every round between 1-11. Now the real challenge begins as we try to form these partnerships (and trios if you dare!) with the uncertainty as to whether we'll even be able to put all the pieces together.

Enjoy.

So now we all pick from the pool of players we now have? And pick one player at a time?

Are we just trying to make a team or are we trying to get combinations?

So we start from scratch and pick any player we want regardless if they have been picked before?

Our beautiful defence

Klippity Klopp · « **Reply #335 on:** February 20, 2017, 04:11:55 pm »

If we are doing this.

Why don't we all stick to 4-4-2 / 4-2-3-1, we can allow any players who played in the same teams, plus you have to pick a RB / RW & LB / LW combo.

So we're all on the same page?

Samie · « **Reply #336 on:** February 20, 2017, 04:13:32 pm »

I don't do 4-2-3-1. I despise that formation. 4-4 fuckin' 2 isn't better either.

Actually I guess if we are picking one player at a time then other formations are more possible.

You can all breathe a sigh of relief. There is no secret headfuck round. Anyone who quoted my post might've seen a secret message at the end

It would've been fun in a way, but fuck me drawing a new draft order every round would be a logitical nightmare!

Please post your completed teams in here in the following format - All players picked together must either be wearing the same coloured shirt as their team OR have the abbreviated team name in brackets after each name. Any other forms will not be accepted. I'll do mine in a bit as an example.

Spoiler

Sorry.

Is your team playing Super Cup Football Samie? Just running up and down in straight lines like Martin Kelly on the overlap.

Samie · « **Reply #349 on:** February 20, 2017, 07:22:39 pm »

It's playing something alright.

I mean this is my version of 'Total Football'.

Hard to pick a favourite, I really like Betty Blue's, Tubby's, JSteve's and Lastrador's. Not seen enough of some of the players to pass comment on other teams.

All the teams with big names, but lots of cheese.

I really like Lawnmowermans & SPS. Genuine duos and partnerships from 1 - 11.

Missing formations from Vishwa, El Lobo, and Greatness. We're doing straight knock-outs, so rather than giving someone a bye I thought we could create Rysoph a team from the leftover unpicked duos. Actually quite a lot of quality left too, so shouldn't be too hard.

Banks

Bergomi Moore Charlton Brehme

Mendieta Sousa Deschamps Kily

Tevez Rooney/Suarez Forlan

?

Not sure if Sousa/Deschamps can be classed as a partnership though. Or if Bergomi/Brehme can really.
