Lads,

We have had an issue come up today that needs sorting.  I am very tired, and not sure when we will resume.

My idea was to build Liverpool into a bastion of invincibility. Napoleon had that idea. He wanted to conquer the bloody world.

Thanks lads, problem appears sorted. 

Will start tomorrow morning EST and you should expect some sort of announcement about Steals by then.

The thread is yours!

No really take it.

If Steven Gerrard is exempt as a one club player, why not Xavi and Iniesta?

Or is that too much power to the drafter with Barca?

I think they both were to be honest....but just weren't selected. On the list Trent put up they were both there as one club men.

Can we support Trend with a little less moaning, or the smarmy comments or advice on 'how it could be better'?. I'm sure those who are making these suggestions might find it more productive designing their own draft, or maybe pm Trend offering help and guidance. In the meantime, shut the fuck up and crack on you crying c*nts.

Trend stated in the rules somewhere that US appearances don't count. Not sure why that is, but he probably had a good reason for it. Also noticed low tier (amateur?) clubs don't count, as Gerd Muller is not tecnically a one club man as per the wiki list.

Maybe too much power for Barca, as you say. The ones at the biggest disadvantage right now are Real and Juve. Looking forward to watching them both get gutted. No protections on the real Ronaldo, Zidane, and Di Stefano  :-*  Milan are annoingly well protected with 5 greats unstealable, but I hope we'll see them pillaged good and proper - goodbye Pirlo, Facchetti, and Zanetti.

give them no option but to use both of them as full backs. They could use bergomi and Maldini in a back 3 and still use zanetti, facchetti, Cafu. Picking bergomi over zanetti to protect shows he wants bergomi for the alternative options. Take those options away. Bergomi was good at right back but he was no zanetti

Yeah, they've definitely lucked out being able to protect 3 of their greatest ever defenders plus Gullit and Van Basten. They are ridiculously strong already. But if they add Zanetti at RB or Facchetti at LB then they will be impregnable at the back. Maybe both if you they play with wingbacks. Pirlo is the other key, as they've already assumably already lost Riijkaard to the Dutch consortium (as his top appearance holders). Without him they are light in the centre of the field as well.

Edit: Cafu goes to the other Italian consortium, LM. Roma are the top appearance holders.

If Trend doesn't mind me answering for him... only the bottom 8 can make steals and only the top 8 can be stolen from. These steals can be any player not on the exempt list posted over the page and in the rules thread. No need for any connections to your club(s). Hope that helps  :)

and remember, they can also play zanetti in DM. Ah right yeah Cafu.

Yeah, Zanetti is key to their side. Remove him and Pirlo and their midfield will fall. Stealing Facchetti also takes their best 70s option off the table and might cause them headaches elsewhere. Hope we'll see some tactical movements in these steals. If a team looks light in one decade then that's another way you can fuck them over.
