Yesterday was the sites Champions League draw. Last time round I got Slava Prague due to being in the top flight. I actually really enjoyed the team and there were a couple of decent little players in there. However this time round after bottling division 2s promotion chances, I was expecting a slightly better team. And oh boy was I not disappointed. Can I get a drumroll please S8TY ?
NAPOLI!
For anyone not familiar with Naples team, it’s extremely fifa friendly
Solid all over the pitch with several superstars!
Osimehn leading the attack, MarcTheSharc will tell you he’s silly good I’m sure. Pace finishing height strength Skills … but don’t worry, that’s where Kvat.. Kvart.. Kvash… Kvaratskhelia comes in! 5* skills and weak foot!
In the midfield we have André-Frank Zambo Anguissa who the commentator loves to full name, so I will too. A proper box to box midfielder, he was everywhere in the pre tournament warmup, even getting himself a couple goals. Alongside him playing a more defensive role is Lobotka. Absolute rock of a defensive midfielder.
And to round it off at the back, Kim Min Jae and Di Lorenzo. Two proper units providing security at the back and the ability to start an attack after winning possession.
Ultimately it is still me controlling these lads, so realistically I wouldn’t peg myself as a tournament winner, but with a strong-ish performance in division 2 and luckily getting a team that wouldn’t look out of place assigned to one of our division 3 friends, I should really be doing quite well. I’m aiming for a semi final appearance minimum, anything less will be a classic Morris bottle job
