If a transfer is permissible,  we'll swap who we want.  Or,  as suggested early on,  ban trading altogether.

Don't mind any of the paths,  as long as it's clear.

Robbie PM’d me and explained why he is happy to go with it. You’ve convinced me no free transfers at all for the sake of fairness, so we’ll cancel that one.

Samie and Andy barely made effort to get players (look at their picks, they’ll probably happily tell you) not having them fill up their teams with half decent players just by asking, or people giving them trade offs for players they don’t want.

As I said, trades can happen with permission, to stop stupid trades happening.

[Elzar]

And teams not put together by tomorrow morning, i’ll do myself as I’m putting the votes up tomorrow.

If anyone can’t do it on this11 or any of the other sites feel free to leave a formation and any preferred instructions.

Fair enough.  Should never have approved the Upacemano transfer then,  instead of taking bizarre passive aggressive potshots after that.  I'm not a regular here,  thought we could share out.

[Samie]

You're a good man Surf. Nabil is a donkey.

Zlatan /Veratti swap?

[surfer. Fuck you generator.]

Samie and I have agreed a Zlatan-Verrati trade.

[Samie]

This is what you call swift dealings. 

[El Lobo]

Seriously lads, why would you take the piss when he’s put that much effort into running this thing for the last fortnight?

[Samie]

What? 

 This is a legitimate trade. I needed a striker and i got one. I mean sacrifices had to be made but I've got midfielders thanks to the earlier trade I did with Las and my own picks. 

[Elzar]

Thanks for all your participation! Picking is now over, as mentioned I am not around tomorrow (might get on my phone, I'm in London for work). So today and tomorrow will be trading period. If everyone can start putting their teams together and posting it, I'll go through on Friday and try pick them out. Make sure to make clear if it's a final version or not. Hopefully voting can start on Friday/Saturday!


Edit: Oops! Forgot sheep. I'll look at teams that aren't complete and the rounds they lost out in so we can figure out some sheep for them.

Sorry gents. Did warn you trading period finished Thursday. Robbie’s was out of good will, so let it slide. Waiting for the teams, if you wouldn’t mind?

[surfer. Fuck you generator.]

But you were cool to approve bebe a few minutes ago though.  To go on my right wing.

[Samie]

Surf, you've got 15 players mate. Leave Bebe on the bench. 

[Elzar]

I know, I was trying to be so nice and you refused because you wanted consistent rulings. Will stick to my word.

[surfer. Fuck you generator.]

His work is appreciated lobo,  pmed him myself after the rounds to thank him.

This exchange has been bizarre.  Anyway. Carry on,  it's (the drafting group) is your thing.

Nobody puts Bebe on the corner kicks.

[Elzar]

I think Vish is struggling to get online lately, so I have put a formation together for him.

Anyone else that is yet to post, Please try do so in the next couple of hours or I'll try assess your team and put something together...

[XabiArt]

Before the last round.


Meh.

Cant get on this 11 on my phone. Can someone update this but get Bellingham in for Bissouma please

[Hazell]

That's a good team Xabi but it includes Fernandes so I can't see many people voting for it. Easy victory for me and my wonder team I think.

You're the one with Lukaku up front and Lucas in defence yeah?

[Hazell]

Better to have a donkey up front than a rat in midfield.

[XabiArt]

Oofffft


I'm just glad you havnt realised I have RAWK favourite Sergio Ramos in defence

He's a twat but I kind of admire his all out twatishness in a way. I notice you also have Declan 'better than Fabinho as per Jack Wilshere' Rice in midfield so that might be tough for poor old Modric and Wijnaldum to handle.

Im not sure if you are being sarcastic but Declan Rice is genuinely a really good player.

[vivabobbygraham]

Where was my shout you gang of pricks? I'm voting against all of you...

[Hazell]

He's good but as ever with English players who show a modicum of talent, he's not a brilliant as he gets made out to be.

Round 1

[surfer. Fuck you generator.]

Since it's on current ability, the detail and stats for the 21/22 season are provided. Appearances, height (for set piece assessments) goals, assists are for club competitions only: league, domestic cup and european competition if any.



Gone for a physically powerful side, only 2 players under 6 foot, the shortest in Cuadrado (179cm) close to a 6 footer anyway. The players play in their best, most common positions for last season, loaded the midfield with potentially six players in there, Cuadrado and Alex Sandro providing the width as wing backs and making it a back 5 in defence. Schar, as he does for Newcastle, and with more freedom here with three centre backs, pushes forward with the ball. Pellegrini (roma captain) and Llorente have the characteristics to contribute in both phases of the game.

Can use this as the write-up as well, cheers.

edit: stats, detail from transfermarkt and soccerway

[Drinks Sangria]

Slapped my votes down. Some of the better teams have unfortunately been drawn against the very best and will be knocked out as a result.

Then there’s at least two shite teams that are going through and will be pummelled next round.

[Elzar]

Surprised Rakitic didn’t get picked. He was the one I was expecting to go later on as he’s still a good option late on in the draft. Anyone have others that wasn’t even mentioned?

Surprised no one went for Harvey Barnes. Especially Lobo.

Think if you look at teams in the draft, there was no shortage of midfielders. Even Samie and Andy have like 5 or 6 of them.

It was harder to find defenders

[El Lobo]

Surprised no one went for Harvey Barnes. Especially Lobo.

Did Vardy go? I would have done if I didn’t get Neymar early

[AndyMuller]

I’ll take that as my team was undefeated and went out on a technicaliteh.
