Two matches in a row, the position I struggle the most with, ends up helping me big time. In both cases, my pick was not random, somewhere in da intarweb someone hinted both guys could play RB. I also use some sort of rule of thumb - a heuristic, if I'm speaking to the press - when picking between 2 players who are equally obscure to me. Even then, I'm still pleasantly surprised with the outcome. > > 2. Dzodic, Nenad 68 - 71 Ballesteros, Sergio > > I don't get FM. I had Dzodic rated higher than Ballesteros.

There were more than a few defenders in that pool I would pick before Ballesteros, even if you had left him there. [snip other comments I fully agree with] > > 8.

After a little scouting, Mostto didn't actually look to bad of a choice, but I agree, obscure south-americans are extra risky. > > 10.

Besides stating that Carey *is* also a RB (I only had seen him listed as a CB elsewhere), they also have some extra info that could be helpful. Abraço, Luiz Mello

From the little I've seen of PSV in this year's Europa League and some highlights, Dzsudzsák looked like their best player. Very good dribbler, fast and with a decent shot. His immaturity (getting himself sent off for touching the referee) cost PSV dearly against HSV. I'm pretty sure we'll soon see him on a bigger stage. Ciao, Werner

Indeed Transfermarkt has he valued at 8.500.000 (third in Eeredivisie, after Suarez and Afellay), while Tonetto is just 2.000.000 : http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/balazs-dzsudzsak/profil/spieler_35004.html http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/eredivisie/marktwerte/wettbewerb_NL1.html http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/max-tonetto/profil/spieler_6447.html -- Cheers milivella |
