Ep 496 - THE JOSÉ MOURINHO DRAFT

from SpitballingPod Hosted by SpitballingPod

Lawrence Roberts joins us this week. We're drafting players managed by Jose Mourinho. The rules are below. Indulge!• The player only has to have featured once for Mourinho, but you are getting the version that played for him. If you picked Alexis, you’d be getting the United version not the Arsenal one. If you picked Shevchenko, you’d be getting the Chelsea version, not the Milan one. • There’s no cap on how many players you take from each team. If you want to pick an entire team of Benfica players then you’re welcome to do that• At the time of recording, Jose hasn’t managed Real Madrid (for his second stint). You can’t take Vini Jr on your left wing just because he’s going to manage him next month• Nothing crazy with formations, you can use a 4-4-2, 4-3-3 or a 4-2-3-1• We’re not shoe-horning players into positions. A striker is not suddenly a winger because he’s fast. If you’ve already got a left winger then you can’t take another one and say he’s on the right just because he could do a job there. Take the player where Jose played them. No funny business • We go through until we’ve all got a completed 11Hosted by Luke Byron. Joined by Tom Kennett and Lawrence Roberts.
