In his defense, Alisson Becker is a valuable commodity in this draft...  Only a few keepers worth their salt (and not Manc).

Claus will get my vote for the balls of it (and I'm a former goalkeeper coach)....  Well out lad.

Gerry doesn't understand BPA, pay him no mind
Maybe the group, led by your leadership, will see these drafts as PR functions and brilliant use of humor

Hey Claus, fuck off.

I actually think there's plenty of top goalkeepers, i'll be leaving that to last, there's 5 that have achieved 'the double' and plenty of class elsewhere

I love Alisson though

A fantastic goalkeeper this early won't win you any drafts, but it can sure as hell help you lose one by missing out on outfield players.

Always looking to challenge conventional norms for me but your point is well taken

If it was any other keeper, even other LFC greats I might agree but Becker is the shiznut

Was wondering if Lawrenson would last, so I could go Hansen/Lawrenson.

Might create a mad team now and get eliminated first round.

There's Cech who wears a helmet, Schmeichel the racist, Schmeichel the baby racist, Seaman and his mustache, so you're basically left with big Nev and Tim Flowers.

Godspeed lads.

Godspeed lads.

Papa Schmeichel is vital though if you’re teaming him with John Terry and Vardy to create a theme....
If he's being asked to head the ball too frequently - which isn't exactly his specialty - it could affect his ear and cause an infection. Especially if the ball hits him on the ear directly.

Would've been a nice combo, but I reckon those who are saving at least one of their Liverpool picks are playing it smartest here. Plenty of quality across our 19 wins.

For sure, I was only going to go with that as it looked like it could be available. My original plan was to get one of the best Liverpool names and then leave the next for a few rounds and see where I am struggling.


Without names, anyone you are surprised hasn't gone yet?

Holding midfielders already thin on the ground.  There's a couple of other options out there but I wanted to keep picks from those teams open.

Toure is great

Lastrador has a great pick there too with Stam, was between him and Ferdinand but I went with Rio because he played his whole career in England and arguably just as good
