EURO 2020(1?) football forum average draft

[Baptista_8]

There's a player on the nations selected lists that isn't in anyone's squad, don't think it's someone that was revealed by mistake either. Have PMed the main man.

Now Mijatovic, 5 of the players I had in my team have gone in the last 3 or 4 picks  

I also had Boban listed, thought i was on to a winner there

Gunman was pissed one night and messed up the choices sent to him by PM. Probably that one.

Nah, he's asking about Ricardo Carvalho.

We had shambles there, a member picked him thinking he's not a winner, then changed the pick.

Yeah just noticed. Sake, i only wanted him for his hair.

I was, but not with bestbrother. Him picking and removing Couto means he's no longer available for others...but **** happens I guess

[Baptista_8]

I would say in hindsight - Maybe a better idea would have been for everyone to PM Gunman when it's their time to pick rather than post, so that he could check eligibility before posting, meaning no top players are becoming unavailable for everyone else. But given how he's handled other PMs not sure that would have been any better

Normally if someone picks outside eligibility they forfeit their pick for that round, I think @GunmaN1905has been very generous tbf

[adhikapp]

Can someone make a list of players that can't be picked due to shambles as well? It's getting long

They're in the list already

[Baptista_8]

Maybe not Couto

[Sano]

Props to Gunman though, this draft is challenging which makes it more fun.

[Haguey]

All the players who are excluded are listed alongside the rest of the players. That's why Carvalho is there. Also Ribery and others.

**** him, it’s a shamblesfest, he’s tarnishing Gizzys legacy 

[Darius1998]

Still only 7pm here so the draft should get to me by tonight barring some ridiculous delays. Some occasional showers of rain so far but looks like the main effects of the cyclone will hold off till midday tomorrow so might even get to pick my 8th and 9th players.

Technically, I won the 2018 WC draft, so I had every right to organize this one.

Otherwise we'd have those Cristiano-Pele-Messi attacks again.

You're not allowed to name players. Always is in drafts IIRC.

That's what I don't understand.  Just because somebody made a mistake and mentioned a player it shouldn't mean that player can't be picked.  Who is to say anyone wanted that player anyway?  It's not as if people are doing it on purpose either.

It is supposed to be fun at the end of the day and people getting called out for making a genuine mistake doesn't seem like great fun to be fair.  I appreciate there is a lot of banter in there but still.

[GunmaN1905]

Tbh, I wanted to pick Couto for Crispypaul, but I thought someone will get mad for me picking such a good player.

[PaulHartman71]

Tymoshouk! Another blast from the past. I’d genuinely never remember him without scouring though past squads

Thats it, I mean you could exploit that rule in fairness, a simple mistake on a player shouldnt rule them out of the list.

idk never do these normally and now I know why

Nah I get why it's a rule. Some players people would never think of, seeing them named helps them.

Darius is definitely winning rookie of the tournament award, great team.
And still most of the biggest nations available.

[Baptista_8]

Is Weezer still playing?

Can't say if those picks are awful or picked by someone else.

Just wait it out.

 

[Haguey]

We'll find out in the next 3 hours and 51 minutes.

After missing out on Guardiola and Busquets, I was hoping that at least Tymoschuk would've lasted until my next pick. Oh well, back to the drawing board. 

[Sano]

Cracking picks by @Darius1998, both Robson and Prosinecki were high on my shortlist for my remaining midfield spot.

It does free me up when it comes to the semi-finalist/winner spots. Unfortunately, most of the best players from those teams have already gone.

All I'm going to say is that there's still huge untapped potential in pre-split Eastern countries.

[Haguey]

That few will have heard of and won't get voted for.

They're just as familiar, if not more, as some of the players already picked.

[Sano]

Gunman, stop pointing the way 

[Yuko]

Prosinecki was one of my original picks that I just decided against at the last minute. One of the greatest players of the 90s, cannot believe how late he is given the limits. Freaking Kranjcar and  Niko Kovac were picked ahead

He's done it the entire time, I feel the point of this he had in mind was a full eastern Europe team 😂

Honestly, he should've achieved way more.

But he liked to enjoy cigarettes and food/drinks too much.

Quote

Responding to a question about which ex-teammate "would have most trouble avoiding the biscuit tin in isolation", the former England ace responded: "I won't be too harsh.

"I had someone in mind, but I'll use this question as a chance to talk about Robert Prosinecki who was not - shall we say - the most committed to physical activity.

"Robert fitted the word 'maverick' perfectly and the only time he wasn't smoking a Marlboro Red was when he was on the pitch.

"We would barely see him at training during the week but, my God, when he played for Portsmouth he was unbelievable."

And he'd pretend that he doesn't understand English as soon as they asked him to press.

I'm pointing the way when you're bloody picking Kranjčar ahead of some all-time greats.

Even some of the more familiar nations to everyone have huge stars not being picked yet.
