Stam was my next pick  :wanker

Added bonus of fucking off ‘he who drinks toilet duck’ when he left

Yep, definitely one of the acceptable ones. One of the best CBs in the draft too.

Third times the charm Elzar
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.

Hughes hasn’t gone has he?

I thought my bad picking was embarrasing, then Lobo picks Vidic.

Feels like an end of season game, both great teams that are trying to score and creating chances (and not defending particularly well). They've just taken theirs and we haven't.

Two nice picks there Hazell. Always liked watching Pires play. Great balance, could go either way and quick too...just a fraction behind Hazard  ;)

I picked Ballack cos people said judged by whole career before the draft. Otherwise I'd have never picked him.

Robben Island
67 Appearances
15 goals
3 seasons (1 injured)

Okay... apparently he was the PFA young player runner-up to Rooney and played very well in 04-05 on the left flank for Chelsea....
and had a good last year with the club 06-07

Pepe got em on penalty though.

His peak was at Bayern, but he was still very good at Chelsea. Can't think of many better out and out wingers in the draft who you could pick as of now.

If anyone wants to correct me (nothing in the first post in either thread) I can change before PiM maes his pick quickly.

Rules should probably be clearer. First of all I can't choose two players that are already picked, now I don't know what time frame we are voting the players on

About right. He had his best years for Bayern. But even at Chelsea he was good but not necessarily the star man of the team.

Well I can think of a load at Liverpool players (who most can't pick) and some mancs I wouldn't touch with a bargepole.

Never said Robben was a superstar. I'm mostly impressed with Hazell's overall approach (still 2 Liverpool picks left and taking the best Leicester player in round 1) and the balance of the players he's picked so far. Pires-Silva-Robben is an excellent attacking three, with Kante the perfect man to sit behind them breaking up the play and doing the hard slog. Grade A drafting. Let's see how he fucks this up  :D
