Yeah post, or I'm petitioning to move my team to this division as I think we legitimately could beat @AutoPenalti
Lol. I don't remember the rest of teams but I'm fairly confident that @GiallorossiYank and I have the best team of the group.
I think we can all agree @GiallorossiYank and I have one of the best defenses and midfields in the entire draft. We have an above average GK in our pool and while wondo takes stick our front 3 is dangerous. Also watch Finlay bounce back this year and post 10+ goals and assist. Then our depth is very solid.
Yo you should repost your squad it comes out looking like a hot mess. Can't do spaces. You should also make them closer so it's easier for people in phones/tables to read.

Voting closes in 2 days. Three teams have not even submitted their line-ups. @Balerion ??? @MPNumber9 ??? @KUSA77 and @Carvelli3 ??? I'm definitely voting for truefan/giallorosi's team, which has some balance and a play-maker in midfield, at least a couple of guys who can score, and some solid defenders. The three missing line-up teams all have some weaknesses in the scoring department, especially MPNumber9 for having taken Donovan, Haji Wright, and Jahn as his first 3 forwards. My second pick will probably be between Balerion and KUSA/Carvelli, if one of them can make a case for themselves.
I just posted links to a post by @Carvelli3 and another by @joe cleats that describe their squads somewhat. Taken from the draft discussion thread. I could not find such a post by @Balerion Based on this and the two teams that did post lineups in this thread, I'm voting for truefan/giallorosi and for KUSA/Carvelli3.
Honestly, it should be me and auto. We're the only two teams in our group that bothered to post their squads.
I agree with this, we posted our squads/lineup so it's only fair that we advance for actually participating.
