[El Lobo]

If you were to ask me to name three world class footballers, I probably wouldn't say Simic, Kuffour....  I'd go Mane, Robertson, Huge Sanchez. Der Elst.

[Sheer Magnetism]

So famous Lobo didn't even get the name correct    Hazell and Adz's teams look fantastic though, both definite contenders for the overall title.

[El Lobo]

What name didn't I get correct? 

[Lastrador]

Wasn't it, Van der Elst?

[El Lobo]

Oh yeah I missed the Van off, I didn't want to dupe people into thinking he was Dutch though. I could have just left it blank and said 'greatest DM ever' and the true football encyclopaediacs would have known who it was.

How is Peter.

[El Lobo]

How is Peter.

I'm gonna put this battering solely at the hands of him and his 7 alter egos (and Sheer)

RIP

I've seen the crash from a surveillance camera and that side impact were he was sitting as a passenger was horrible. Seems like he was up to some dirty stuff after his career but a very sad way to go out regardless.

Went for Lobo in game 1 because he picked my favourite RWD Molenbeek player ever in Franky (van) der Elst. Game 2 is tough, Andy's kit is so fabulous I don't know if I can not vote for him.

[Max_powers]

Hazell's attack and midfield is superior to Lobo's. In def Lobo does have an edge. Went with Hazell in game 1.

Went with Andy in game 2. Both teams are evenly matched. I am not a fan of Andy's midfield 2, but he does have a better back line and a better kit.

[Lastrador]

Don't hate me Andy, I really do like you and find you a funny and agreeable kind of fella, but I can't understand how can so many people can vote for a team that has two attacking midfielders playing in central midfield, not even the hardworking kind, or all that great to be honest. It's deeply troubling to see how the standards have fallen. The kits are great though.

How could I ever hate you my mate?

Got to agree that Nakata and Zielinski as a pair of holding or deep lying players is horrid. They’re both 8s/10s.

They aren’t holding or deep lying they are just centre midfield 

[Alan_X]

Locked for the day

[Elzar]

Thanks Alan. Rightfully so.

Congrats to the winners.

Just as bad - no holding players and essentially 5 attacking mids. Neither are box to box players. Sorry Andy, rest of the team is class but I can’t get past that.
