Well done lads. Odd only 3 people had either of you 1st in their votes. I can't remember what order I had you both in but think you were my top two.
Even when the player in question had arguably one of the finest peaks of all time? Sure, if you don't consider him as the best striker in the draft or even amongst the top ten strikers in the draft but to completely rule him out? On the hindsight, I would have drafted differently. I thought the draft was about picking the best players with the club legend thingy being the add-on/bonus. If I had known that was the primary aspect, I would have picked differently.
Well done to JB and Ollie! Once you made that double swoop for Matthäus and Vieira you were going to be very hard to beat, well played. I'm disappointed to have finished so far down while AJ got second with the exact same formation. I think I overestimated how much others would weight their voting to club legends, as I only think his team really outshines mine on the left wing, LB, and CDM, possibly also RW unless that's the Lazio version of Nedved, I can't remember. I had probably the top GK, two club legend centrebacks, a Bayern legend and Chelsea's greatest ever in midfield, and the one and only Raul up front. Not that I'm bitter or anything...
I will claim that. It was my only 'political' vote - I knew he would vote me last, as we generally don't get on, and he's always confrontational towards me. Other than that, I judged it entirely fairly! It's all fun and games.
My votes: Best Team 1st - Plymouth Gooner 2nd - Shane 3rd - Doc 4th - Prolifik 5th - Bob 6th - Cotts 7th - Joga 8th - Viper 9th - Gal P 10th - Guyett 11th - Punch 12th - CV 13th - PB 14th - Tel 15th - mrwatfordfc 16th - Yakubu 17th - AJ Best Defence (including GK, CB, FB & WB) 1st - Guyett 2nd - Shane 3rd - Joga Best Midfield (including WB, DM, CM & AM) 1st - Cotts 2nd - Tel 3rd - Joga Best Attack (including ST, FW & W) 1st - Viper 2nd - Doc 3rd - Gal P Best Balance 1st - Guyett 2nd - Gal P 3rd - Joga Well played, everyone!
I take in so many other things when determining the best 'team' though. Plus I did it in about 10-15 mins so we could get the show on the road.
Wtf LEF my top 3 were mrwatfordfc, Suffolk Punch and Purple Bananaa and you have none of them higher than tenth!
Well done guys. Who the FOOK voted aj's team last? That's the first draft where I've thought that some players have voted tactically tbh. Gladly the right team won.
Three people voted me first, more than anyone else apart from PB who was 7th everyone else must have marked me down massively, *****. Red Viper finishing 11th is a ****ing scandal.
These were mine.. Best Team 1st - Red Viper 2nd - Telstar 3rd - Joga-Ollie 4th - Suffolk Punch 5th - AJ 6th - Shane 7th - Borobob 8th - PG 9th - Guyett 10th - Prolifik 11th - Doc 12th - LEF 13th - Gal 14th - PB 15th - CV 16th - Cotterill 17th - Yakubu Best Defence (including GK, CB, FB & WB) 1st - Suffolk Punch 2nd - PB 3rd - Guyett Best Midfield (including WB, DM, CM & AM) 1st - Red Viper 2nd - Joga-Ollie 3rd - AJ Best Attack (including ST, FW & W) 1st - Red Viper 2nd - LEF 3rd - Borobob Best Balance 1st - PG 2nd - Shane 3rd - AJ
