Soccer Draft - Sign-Up/Discussion Thread

[Rosebud]

I was wondering where Yarmolenko was gunna go. Kid's got a nose for goal and a great shot, he's a little Robben-esque in how much he relies on cutting inside and shooting, but I think he's got more forward in him with the better size, strength and quick shooting. I think he's going to develop into a very good supporting striker the way SES is for Milan or Giovinco is for Juve.

[Rosebud]

Is this the last round or are we doing one more?

[SuperPacker]

Last round. Once everyone's picked and updated their team in the team thread we can start ranking.

[Rosebud]

Ah, well can I change my last pick to a backup Goalie? I thought I was gunna get one more pick to address that

[SuperPacker]

Yeah go for it.

[Rosebud]

Done and done

[Rosebud]

So we're done now, how are we gunna do this? Just general voting to rank the teams for head to head match ups?

Yeah, vote for the rankings and then head to head match ups. TBW still has 4 picks to make, hopefully he picks soon, but if he doesn't i'll just PM people later today asking for the rankings from 1-8.

[SuperPacker]

Okay looks as though TBW has disappeared. If you can start sending in your rankings from 1-8 (not including your team) that would be cool. I'll PM people as well though.

Everyone should probably post their projected Starting XI for all 3 years....

Roster:

FW: Lionel Messi : Gareth Bale : Wayne Rooney : David Villa
MF: Cesc Fabregas : Bastian Schweinsteiger : Wesley Sneijder : Christian Eriksen : Lucas Leiva : Lucas Moura
FB: Leighton Baines : Dani Alves : Stephan Lichtsteiner
CB: Neven Subotić : Andrea Barzagli : Dede
GK: Marc-André ter Stegen : Gigi Buffon


Starting XI - Year 1



Starting XI - Year 2



Starting XI - Year 3

Like I said earlier, I have already made the teams and whatnot in FIFA 13, so since I'm not working today, I'm going to start this tournament....and I'll probably just play as the home team each game. I'm not great, so it's no guarantee that I win every game.

Matchday 1 we have:

Superpacker 0 vs. Rufus 1
-Goal by Joao Moutinho(15')
-Red Card to Hulk(23')

TheBoyWonder 2 vs. Marshall 1
-Goal by Cavani (33')
-Goal by Cavani (74')
-Goal by David Silva (79')

UkFan 2 vs. Rob 2
-Goal by Suarez(26')
-Yellow Card to Subotic (49')
-Goal by Ronaldo (50') *Penalty
-Goal by Villa(70')
-Goal by Rooney (85')

Woot 2 vs. Rosebud 1
-Yellow Card Huntelaar(39')
-Goal by Ribery (59')
-Goal by Gotze (65')
-Goal by Ozil (78') *Penalty


Mcgee on the bye

[Rosebud]

So are people gunna up date their teams for their 3 year plan? Let's get that done and submit our initial rankings over the weekend.

I was holding out hope that they would, but if it doesn't get done I'll just send mine in Saturday after the games.

[Rosebud]

I feel like sending out a reminder message with a deadline of sometime on saturday would be prudent.

[SuperPacker]

I thought we were going to rank first and then do the 3 year match ups.

[Rosebud]

I meant have people post their 3 year lineups so we can rank them. For example UK only has his first 9 picks up on his team post, yet looking at who he picked he'd be near the top of my list depending on how he utilizes them.

[SuperPacker]

oh yeah, I guess people just lost interest after we finished drafting :(

[Wootylicous]

2-1

Rosebud suck it!

[Rosebud]

Why don't you shut your damn quebecy mouth and figure out what the hell you're going to do with your team.

[Rosebud]

Ilky's so damn sexy.
