Have four years passed already? Apparently so which on one hand means the World Cup is only a few months away but even more importantly @A_G and I can run another draft to celebrate.
Now certain members (no names) had some difficulty following the rules in the last draft so no excuses this time round.
The rules are:
1) You can select any player who has started a World Cup game from USA 1994 to Qatar 2022. When selecting your player you have to state which World Cup you’re selecting them.
We’re NOT judging players on overall World Cup careers, just the World Cup that you’ve selected them from.
For example, if you wanted to select Emile Heskey you’d have to specify which one of his two World Cups you’re picking him from. Draft posts would then ideally look like this:
“I select Emile Heskey – South Korea & Japan 2002
Insert reasons for selection here.
@next user it’s your turn”
2) You can only select ONE player per nation.
3) You must have at least one player from each of the five FIFA regions in your starting XI:
• CONMEBOL (South America)
• UEFA (Europe)
• CONCACAF (North America & the Caribbean)
• CAF (Africa)
• AFC (Asia)
There is technically a 6th region Oceania but they’ve only sent one team to a World Cup. So if you want to select anyone from 2010 New Zealand they’ll count as an AFC team for the purposes of this game.
Please try and remember that it's a World Cup game so ideally you'd pick players based primarily on that basis. There are bonus points available based on performance...
If you don’t follow these rules you will be of course randomised into oblivion.
One footnote: if you select a player from any one of Yugoslavia, Serbia and Montenegro or Serbia you are not allowed to draft a player from the other two iterations. Yes, they’re technically different but each country inherited the previous one’s FIFA place.
not sure he will as he’s still on about how
