:D Wait until you see my player picks ;)

No no no you wait until you see mine, I'm second in line! :D

 

On a terribly serious note tho, I doubt many participants here are aware of the types of players needed for successful AI management. I suspect most of the Vibers here are going for players as if we're managing the teams ourselves. However, the games will be simulated so it's an entirely different ballgame. AI managers look at attributes in a slightly different way so in order to build a successful "AI team" one needs to pick a specific set of players to make it 'click'. I know because I have experimented with these sort of simulations.

Can't wait to see how bad some of the people's picks are going to be :)

Wise wise words BG ;)

Picking the 20 best players wouldn't necessarily mean you're going to finish top. I remember on FMM 2015 (I think it was) I placed all of the best players at Newcastle and simulated to see if they won the league. Let's just say they ended up playing on Channel 5 on a Thursday night :laugh:

Do you not feel like a traitor for choosing Manchester City's manager, being a Manchester United fan? ;)

Firstly, thank you to those who participated in the Manager Draft. 
 
We now move onto the Player Draft, where you will fill out your squads for the tournament.
 
As I said earlier, you will pick: 
  • 4 players from the Premier League
  • 4 from La Liga
  • 4 from the Bundesliga
  • 4 from Serie A
  • 4 from any other leagues (E.g. Ligue 1)

I have changed the way we'll do it slightly, so that it goes a bit quicker.

You will all go through 4 rounds of the Player Draft, rather than the 20 rounds we would of done under the previous format.
 
I have decided to scrap the draft list as it slowed a few things down. From now on, the draft will be on a first-come-first-serve basis.
 
Each round will last for 24 hours, which should give everyone a chance to submit their picks. If you fail to submit your picks for a round, you will be given random players
 
You will choose 1 player from each of the 5 leagues above for each round, so you will choose 5 players in Round One, 5 players in Round Two, 5 players in Round Three and 5 players in Round Four.
 
You must choose wisely however, as you can only choose 1 player per team. So, for example, if you chose Lionel Messi in Round 1, you can't choose another Barcelona player for the rest of the draft.
 
Put into simpler terms, your squad of 20 will all be from 20 different teams.
 
Round 1 will officially open at 7:30pm English time, and end at 7:30 tomorrow night, with Round 2 following straight after.
 
Good luck!

Wait, so you can pick whenever you want? Is there still an order?

Yeah, as long as it's between 7:30 tonight and 7:30 tomorrow night.

No more draft list, so first come first served.

          PLAYER DRAFT - ROUND ONE

Comment below who you have chosen for Round 1 using the following format:

PREMIER LEAGUE -

LA LIGA -

BUNDESLIGA -

SERIE A -

REST OF THE WORLD -

Remember, 1 player per league. You also have to choose wisely as you can only have 1 player from a team (1 from Barcelona, 1 from Real Madrid etc.)

Also, please take note of who's chosen who, so you don't choose the same players.

Good luck all! You have 24 hours.

Finding this hilarious. Your squads are much better than mine on paper, but I plan to mop up in round 3 of all the quality superstars you lot missed. Stay tuned ;)

I like your picks tho. I just needed a decent 'spine' before going for the smaller boys. Will be tough to keep up with the picked players tho.

Good point. Rob are you making a list for this? 

I'm grabbing all the decent smaller players in round 1 and 2, mop up in round 3 and then have a mix in 4 and 5 :D

I make a list at about 9pm with all the chosen players so far. I might even make an excel sheet and update it every so often and send screenshots so people know who has been chosen
