Love that Gary Mac pick, considered him myself but forgot and took Petit instead  :-[

Great picks there with Bremner and Gary Mac. It’s ridiculous the amount of world class talent Scotland used to produce.

Can we stay on top of the 1 hour rule today please, ladies and gentlemen. I really don't give a gnat's chuff about time differences and all that malarkey. Leave picks with those in Europe whilst you rest your weary. Sleep is for wimps anyway.

You're welcome, Roobie. Terry Mac was a colossus for us with his goals and guile. Him and Souness in midfield were without equal for a spell. Good pick

Decided that while Ballack wasn’t at the height of his talent at Chelsea, he was still a really good player, and a great midfielder at this point. Got a lot of planning to do for my next few picks.

Was thinking we'd do it now, liven things up a bit? Happy to wait if you prefer.

Or we could do both, have something after too. It's just miserable at the moment haha

There'd still be a couple picks after...was gonna go with "players who finished second, no restriction (ie a third LFC player)"

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.
