Now onto the admin side.

• The idea is to pick a team of 11 players from the Champions League era
• You will be looking to pick the best players you possibly can for your team for all areas: goalkeeper, defenders, midfielders and attackers
• The player is picked based upon their performances at their time for the season you chose him for (i.e. if you pick Andriy Shevchenko for AC Milan, his form at Kiev and Chelsea does NOT come into the equation during the competition).
• You need to select at least one player from the top 5 league in Europe: Premier League (England), La Liga (Spain), Seria A (Italy), Bundesliga (Germany) and Ligue 1 (France).
• For the season that the player is picked, he must have reached at least the quarter final stage of the competition
• Each player, must have played in at least one Champions League final.
• Number 1 gets first pick, Number 2 gets second pick, Number 3 gets third pick and so on....
• When offline, each member will get 2 hours to make their pick, if you miss the window then your pick will be chosen by the Rexdomizer ™.
• If the next picker is online and active in discussion he has only 20 minutes to make his pick
• The game will be frozen each night at 9pm GMT and resume at 9am GMT the following morning. You are still free to make your pick in this period if you want to but are under no obligation to do so.
• The draft order will be drawn at random and will follow the 3rd round reverse snake format. So the same as last time where we flip the order after the second round. This should stop anyone building up an unfair advantage by going first.
• The season of your player must have reached one of the below stages depending on when that season falls...

Prior to 1994-95: Quarter finals
1994-95 to 1998-99: Semi finals
1999-2000 to 2002-03: 2nd group stage
2003-04 to present day: Quarter finals

• AGAIN, You need to draft a starting XI and five outfield substitutes. The 17th round will consist of backup goalkeepers. You have to draft one Goalkeeper in the first 11 rounds.

That’s it for now. The game will hopefully start at 12 noon GMT on Thursday. That should give everyone enough time to figure out the rules and make plans. We may start earlier depending on sign up.

As I’ve said above there will be a definitive result this time! I’ve set up a custom league ready to be simulated, I just have to add your players once selected and fingers crossed we’ll have the results and champion before the Leeds match

Thanks everyone and enjoy the game!

Gamble because there could be some tasty randomisers in the future if he can’t get online

Bro i barely sleep anyway a lifetime of employing litigious lying American aholes has cured me of the curse of a full nights sleep

 

[Sapient Hawk]

Paul Lambert isn’t even that bad a pick

Guy was class for that Dortmund side lol

I never said he was bad. He's just obscure enough to make it into my side

 

[Farzad Stoned]

@A_G you see how i am working the officials to gain the coveted double pick mate? Straight up Sir Al in the heyday. Mercenary United got Fergietime but in AM draft games we operating on Farzadtime. I can’t help it mate it’s like i am playing that 3 dimensional chess they play on Star Trek

 

[Rex Stone]

@bingobob can you make your pick mate?

 

[bingobob]

If I've got the rules straight because I picked Larsson who played for Barcelona in a final am I now blocked from picking another Barcelona player or Celtic player. Really should have understood the rules before picking...not that I wasnt picking him as he is one of my all time favourites.

You got to post choice on only selections commentary and Farzad comedy here on this thread posts on the other thread

@bingobob maaaaaaaaaaaaaaan MY ACE IN THE HOLE. Elite pick tho
Imagine if he played for Arsenal 2000-2006. Just wished he played in a great league at his peak.

No isn't it that if you pick Celtic henrik, you cant pick a celtic player anymore, but you can pick a Barcelona player

 

[2Smokeyy]

Actually surprised a few first rounders are still in the mix una

True that is actually a big advantage it is a good pick since all the Barca guys are still available for him

I am straight up cackling my evil laugh and rubbing palms together waiting for my double pick

Basically only the team he was playing for in the season you’ve picked counts.

So you’re blocked from Celtic players now but can still choose Barcelona.
