Thanks. Can you not choose the player I want as my next pick, please.

Nothing would make me happier than robbing your next pick! @viRdjil up next.

Any chance?

To those who saw him, what kind of forward was Kempes? From what I've read, in the 78 World Cup he was deployed deeper, not as a centre forward. Could he play alone up front?

I've heard he was good at centre back - I'd play him there, personally.

Günter Netzer please

I'm not making my pick until I get a proper answer.

Added.

 

@3 Stacks - You're up fella.

Kempes often played off a target man. 

Think is nobody will have seen that much from him. Spanish football wasn't on TV, and Argentina national games less so. Most people have seen the odd big European or World Cups from any non English player pre early 90s when Serie A starting getting a airing

I've got no idea, though he seemed to play as an attacking midfielder in the 78 WC final. I mean, most of us won't have been born when he was playing.

I always thought of Kempes as I did Keegan. Both excellent finishers who done most of the defensive pressing for their strike partner, who was usually a bigger target man.

 

In my opinion, modern(ish) comps would be to ***** and *****.

 

*Will say after the draft.

Thanks for the info. Think I'll just play him as an attacking midfielder then. Don't want a target man.

Yeah, that's what I read and saw he usually played deeper and made runs into the box. Just wanted to know if he could play on his won because he wasn't small, but it seems he didn't.

Back to Lee. 

 

Cant believe Busquets and Makelele both lasted this long

@John102

 

Over to John

[John102]

Was debating taking either of those before Guardiola but thought they were both a bit too defensive, given i already have deschamps
