Wrexham play in the English league though.

I couldn’t see any actual appearances against that Belgian club on wiki or transfer market but happy to pick again if needed.

But he also spent two years in Denmark and Belgium according to wiki. Number of appearances data is not available but you would assume he played atleast one game there.

It's not a valid pick because it's impossible to prove either way I tried to find documentation but just couldn't :D

Why the fuck would Teddy Sheringham have gone on loan in Sweden in 1985?!

And even worse. Why the fuck am I scratching around worrying about that?! :D

I have picked Amoros. Wiki has him down as a right back whilst also saying he was in n the World Cup team of the tournament at left back. Any experts on here confirm his favoured side?

I still have my Kennedy replacement pick to make so could do with knowing where best to play him before I pick my other full back!

He's mostly a RB with some flexibility - not unlike Lahm

LB - Marzolini or Tarantini might work from Argies

If he's being asked to head the ball too frequently - which isn't exactly his specialty - it could affect his ear and cause an infection. Especially if the ball hits him on the ear directly.

Haha Trend I was weighing up between Toshack and Le Tissier. :D

Hardly like for like, I’m all over the place on this one! Decided Barnes crossing for Toshack would be the better weapon.

Great pick, Trend. Le Tissier's a twat, but he should have gone ages ago based purely on footballing ability.

Not sure whether to go for another CM or an AM *cough Betty*

With those wingers you want someone that they can stick the ball on his head. Di natale playing off him. Good luck finding him though! Oh you fucked up.

Pruzzo would have been ideal!

I knew I wasn't going to win after the Ramos pick, so I've gone as full shithouse as possible. Objectively a good team though IMO.

Don’t think I’ve ever drafted him before. Most above me have their right backs sorted so I’ll mull that over for a while yet and get the big fella in.
