FM 2021 Comp (Manager Poll & Team Name)

[Captain Turdseye]

I’m coming to score goals, make no mistake. I might let one or two in. That’s football.

What we thinking of other peoples sides then?

 

Obviously mine is looking like a world class pace and power unit, but what aboot the other sides? Obviously they will all be good, but some will be better than others.

 

I'm like the look of Ardja, Bruce Spanner, Street Preacher & Golden Eel as my title challengers.

 

Surprised how good my, Ardja and Street Preacher are looking considering we got statistically the 3 worst picking positions. I know, I worked it out. We averaged 14, 14.5 & 15.5 picks, respectively.

 

I don't know enough about some of the players to judge. My team is practically geriatric though. 

[Scott_M]

Looking forward to seeing Stig's defenders up against sides with pace. Hope he doesn't set his side up in a high block.

I've dropped @sir roger a message on the attackers thread.

 

It's approaching the 12 hour limit. I know it's been night time but he has posted this morning in other threads, so assume we're happy to move onto @Street Preacher at 1pm?

I'm Ok with that.

 

Also, I messaged Skidders last night about his GK's picks and he's not changed it yet so I say move on from 1pm also. So @The Golden Eel you're good from 1pm, then maybe we can get the keepers done and dusted from there.

Haven't really looked at many other sides properly , might be worth everyone posting their 11 when they have picked enough so we can have a half way peek at peoples sides?

What does Yellow denote and why the fuck are Luis Alberto and Jose Giminez in a different font to the rest?

Yellow means I have already transfered them to teams, it's so I can keep track.

 

Font, no idea, I just copy and paste.

I'll be disappointed if your team isn't called the Colonel Jessep XI.

Got to admire Scott’s efforts at reformatting every list only for people to instantly render his time useless.

Haha I know what has RB done that for on the defenders thread? Pure spite that

It did make me chuckle.

[Strontium]

I have to confess, only having 2 goalkeepers in the squad is leaving me a bit anxious. What happens if they both get injured? Do we have some sort of randomly assigned cover?

We will invoke the emergency 'keeper protocol.

 

You get Adrian on a short term loan.

[Guest Alex_K]

Loads of good sides shaping up - couple more goes up & down the list and this'll pretty much be finished. Looks like whoever can avoid most injuries to their star players will take it.

 

I think I have been joining rb in reformatting Scott's posts back to the classic; so much white space & bold font between lines hurts my comprehension. May just be me.

I tried. I failed. Wotchagonado?

[Bruce Spanner]

Right, I've got to do my actual job for a few hours so won't be updating the google doc from now until i return so please check the last few just in case.

 

The last pick that I have put in is colour coded.

Evertonians getting picked now, yesterday's result got everyone turned around...

 

Haven't thought through squad players at all, real grab bag stuff from here on out.
