    Both..

    Na, I wish to have them classed as attacking wide midfielders, but ultimately it's up to you guys.

    Ha scotia good pick I had the same lined up

    My back up is Bertie Vogts - 1 club player

    [​IMG]

    Vogts joined the boys' football team of local sports club VfR Büttgen in 1954 at the age of seven, staying with them until his 1965 transfer to Borussia Mönchengladbach. A right-side defender, his tenacity earned him the nickname "Der Terrier".

    He was one of the key figures during Borussia's golden years in the 1970s, when it won the Bundesliga five times, the German Cup once, and the UEFA Cup twice. Vogts also played in the 1977 European Cup Final defeat by Liverpool.[2]

    Vogts made 419 Bundesliga appearances for Mönchengladbach, scoring 32 times and also appeared 64 times for the club in European competition, scoring 8 goals. Vogts remained with Mönchengladbach until he retired from playing in 1979.

    Vogts played nine international boys' games for West Germany, made three appearances for the under-23s team, and has 96 senior caps, making him one of Germany's most capped players. He was captain for 20 of the senior games, scored one international goal and was also a member of the German national team that won the 1974 World Cup.

    Nicknamed “Der Terrier” for always fighting for every ball as if it were his last, Vogts was a big favourite with his home crowd. Vogts famously marked, and subdued, Johan Cruyff, in the finalof the 1974 World Cup in Munich, West Germany.

    Hopefully you Scots can forgive him for his Tenure as Scotland manager

    How would that work? Don't want to make it any more hard work for Minty. The last few rounds woulda tipped me over the edge if I was was running the comp

    A tournament would be good.

    So instead of voting on all of the teams to decide a winner, we would be voting on individual match ups.

    Random draw. Teams v each other. The other drafters vote on who wins.

    If you win, you get to steal a player from the losing team to replace one of your own.

    Although we have an awkward number for a tournament tbh.
