XabiArt has two consecutive picks now.

Not sure what time is the curfew in this draft. 10pm or 11pm?

In that case XabiArt better get his arse online swiftly.

Happy with my Sule and Tolisso picks, maybe the other two could have been picked later in the draft.

Nah, Dolberg is hot property. You were right to snap him up early.

Can we just skip straight to Lobo? Mondzz still hasn't caught up with his previous picks.

He's only one pick behind along with this current pick

Last online last night so no idea why he didn't pick his 3rd then

I gave Mondzz half his time slot, but it seems like he's gone AWOL. Over to Lawnmo.

Bailly not going to be a popular pick - but one of the best U23 CB's available.  :-X

Kluivert.

;D

Maybe early for him, but I think this boy is going to be really big. Love the idea of him linking up with Mbappe too  *drool*

What is 'best' in an under 23 draft though? I think on the most part it's got to be all about peak potential, as none of these players are anywhere near the pinnacle of their careers.

Au contraire, Betty's approval adds 5 points to the Kluivert hype train :D Don't think I'll be able to vote against him & Mbappe!

Quite underrated over here, but people will know about him (& Loca) very soon. The new De Rossi and Pirlo!

Cheers. We've had a flurry of really good CM picks today so I thought I'd nab Gagli while I still could. Not sure how well known he'll be on here as Betty says, but he looks a cracking prospect. Think the best thing about this draft will be looking back in a year or two and seeing who made it and who Berahinoed it!

Getting a keeper is probably a bad idea.  But there are only a few left I know much about so thought I better get one while I can.

Glad your Grandad is OK Samie. :)
