Fantasy Draft Game

Featured Replies

Right, I don't know if anyone will be interested in this, but here goes.

This is the rough idea. Pick a random order from the participants(unless its just me :sadwalk: ). Each will draft a player from any Chelsea era and after 11 rounds have their fantasy Chelsea XI. Then maybe we'll have a poll from the other members to decide who has the best team.

Like a normal draft. We need at least 5 participants but here's what I'm thinking anyway:

  • The participants will each take turns to select one player in ascending order (Participant 1 will select first, followed by Participant 2 etc.).

  • The aim is to select a team of 11 players who have played for Chelsea for at least one full season in any era.

  • Once the first round of the draft is complete (all participants have chosen a player), the second round begins. It operates the same as the first draft, except this time in descending order to ensure that those towards the end of the list get fair picks.

  • When posting your selection, please post a picture of the player. You may also include an explanation of why you picked this player. You are basically trying to convince those who are viewing the thread as to why you're team is the best

  • You may pick any formation you choose, however a realistic formation is recommended

  • One round 11 is complete, I'm thinking we can have a poll from the rest of the forum to decide the best team.

PM me if anyone's interested. Also suggest any changes in rules. I'm not sure if it should be all time or restricted to the Premier league era.

I'm not sure either about pics, but I'll give the game a go.

Can I go 2nd? Yeah why not :laugh2:

Franco Zola.

Zola's gone? Bugger :Connie_threaten:

Lots of Chelsea legends but I'll stick to the ones in my time. This fellow has a decent scoring rate from midfield.

Also remember that you are picking players based on their best form in a Chelsea shirt. And the player should have played at least 30 games for Chelsea (which means no picking Mineiro)

5 picks and no one has taken Ossie? Someone is gonna be like the Bulls getting Jordan at #3 in the '84 NBA draft.

Sorry not entering just an interested observer.

Not sure if everyone's on the same track here..

Hope everyone who picked so far stays on another 10 more rounds. My fault for not making it clearer.

Here are the picks so far. Each to his own:

  1. chelseabootboy - John Terry,
  2. Scooby Blue - Gianfranco Zola,
  3. footballoholic - Frank Lampard,
  4. moti9platoon - Kerry Dixon,
  5. dkw - Ron Harris,
  6. loz - Dan Petrescu,
  7. PloKoon13 - Peter Bonetti,
  8. Zola - Didier Drogba,
  9. Tea Bar Boy - Ruud Gullit,

I think people have stopped noticing once it was moved back into 'Fun and Games'. Guess I'll make an effort to save the game

1st round is over and now the order of picks is reversed.

I'll PM everyone once and see if they're interested in continuing. If not, turn this into an All time Chelsea XI and declare Scooby Blue the winner for picking Zola :D

Tea Bar Boy, you are up.

  1. Tea Bar Boy - Ruud Gullit,
  2. Zola - Didier Drogba,
  3. PloKoon13 - Peter Bonetti,
  4. loz - Dan Petrescu,
  5. dkw - Ron Harris,
  6. moti9platoon - Kerry Dixon,
  7. footballoholic - Frank Lampard,
  8. Scooby Blue - Gianfranco Zola,
  9. chelseabootboy - John Terry,
