[Football] Current World XI Draft

[Rohana]

Hate to break it to you again [MENTION=26348]tomfitz12[/MENTION], but managers are based on their managerial career, so Hugo Sanchez is an acceptable pick, but you'd have to move him to another category to reflect his managerial career.

Edit: Having checked to see what categories he'd fit in to, I've found out that he doesn't fit in to any managerial category apart from category 1. You could swap him into Cat 1 and Dida fits in to a number of categories. Have a tinker with it and that should work out

 

[tomfitz12]

You've picked ten players so far: Ronaldinho, Franck Ribery, Dida, Frank Lampard, Leighton Baines, Ilkay Gundogan, Tim Cahill, Kolo Toure, Loic Remy, Miroslav Klose

ah balls didn't save it to my draft. okay thanks haha

don't recall dida being top goalscorer though :/

 

[tomfitz12]

okay im going to start those picks again haha

 

[Rohana]

Realised that as soon as I posted it, I thought you'd put Sanchez in a different category.

Dida fits in to a few fair categories. He's playing outside the top 5 leagues, he's been in a Champions League Final, 70+ caps for Brazil etc etc. Have a little tinker with your category order pal, I had a quick look and I'm pretty sure you can fit them all in.

 

[tomfitz12]

again ignore

 

[Rohana]

I've just realised the terrible mistake I've made in my team.

Might have to undraft a player. Balls.

You may have to redo that as you have 12 players and a manager in your formation (Gervinho seems to be the extra player)

The retired manager bit was an interesting choice I thought.

 

[Gullflyinghigh]

I've just realised the terrible mistake I've made in my team.

Might have to undraft a player. Balls.

Oooh what was the mistake?

 

[stripeyshark]

The retired manager bit was an interesting choice I thought.

Interesting - yes. Within the rules - no.

Please tell...

 

[Gullflyinghigh]

Interesting - yes. Within the rules - no.

Edit; First reply made no sense.

It did seem a bit odd that he'd snuck in...

[Gullflyinghigh]

Haha. Like I said: interesting - yes.

Damn it, tried to correct my post after re-reading yours...you got there too quickly

 

[Rohana]

Oooh what was the mistake?

Please tell...

Thought both Rodriquez and Veratti only fitted in to one category each, both of which was the Under 23 category. HOWEVER, Veratti has won two different league titles Serie B and Ligue 1. I'll admit to celebrating slightly when I realised! Will post my final pick in a minute, just need to make sure I've found a MASSIVE player who's slipped through unnoticed.
