Alright, I've picked for PIM/me. Hope that's okay. Always wanted to draft him, but the hipsters never let me.

I don't know how happy he'd be with my picks

Can’t argue with Batigol.

I knew you'd have my back. You're usually one of the fuckers he steals him off me

What can I say. I like my strikers to look like hair metal drummers.

Nice pick Haze. Funky. I like it. Gonna run out of strikers pdq so I drafted the very best

Quote from: Drinks Sangria on February 22, 2022, 09:24:40 am

Hipster pick from Hazell. A very good one, though I'm not all too sure it's a first round shout. Great full backs a touch thin on the ground in this one though to be fair.

Thought I'd try a different tack, always go for the more obvious picks and it hardly ever works so umm, well:

What's the time limit after round one? Because holy smokes, this is a new kind of slow.

El Lobo · « **Reply #206 on:** February 22, 2022, 05:59:55 pm »

Yes! About time, go ed Samie

Linudden · « **Reply #207 on:** February 22, 2022, 06:01:35 pm »

The bad news is that Adz has not been online for close to six hours to close out the first round

Linudden · « **Reply #211 on:** February 22, 2022, 06:28:25 pm »

This thing is a bit thin on world-class pure wingers so glad so have Garrincha on the books. Adding a proven winner and captain in Kohler to command the defence is a pretty good start from the #15 spot.

Samie · « **Reply #212 on:** February 22, 2022, 06:29:22 pm »

You don't know how close you were to never getting your filthy paws on him.

El Lobo · « **Reply #213 on:** February 22, 2022, 06:30:13 pm »

Good player Garrincha, surprisingly little known about him outside football considering his great he was

Sarge · « **Reply #214 on:** February 22, 2022, 06:52:07 pm »

I picked Franco because well its, Franco Baresi.

I thank you. Might be a dumb move though.

The age old is Kohler better with three at the back question. In which case where do you fit a winger in. But that’s not my business.

Won’t be able to update picks until tonight.

I might play Maldini as a CB depending on how the draft goes. There are plenty of other greats FBs still left though.

Cafu is not bad, he is known as the Brazillian John Flanagan for a reason.

Curse you Bobby.

Forgot how long you go between picks here when you’re on a crap middling position.

Hazell yer dickhead, stop posting in other threads and make your pick.

We're going at a good pace currently. Don't slow the mo.

Fuck you. You couldn’t have stayed offline another hour could you?

In fact double fuck you! Just seen I had a two minute window from when DRF picked to get in ahead of you. And in my head I was choosing between Nesta and Cannavaro. Now both gone. Shite!

If it's any consolation (I know it isn't

), I was also scratching my head between the two of them. Good question really as to who was better. They were completely different players though, so they were probably as good as each other in complimenting ways.

Drinks Sangria · « **Reply #233 on:** February 22, 2022, 09:56:28 pm »

Once Large Appendage Nicholas has picked, I’ll take my shot and then it’ll likely be tomorrow morning about 08:30 before I’m available again.

Technically, this is entirely PIM's fault.

I’m lost. Have we missed someone or has Nick retreated to sulk and wonder which luscious-haired Italian centre half can replace his intended?

What’s troubling you Grandad? I know it’s nearly your bedtime but I’m just going back to the drawing board because of Betty picking Nesta. Will be two minutes.

You’ve had to pick a bald man having previously fixated on the dark lustre of a famously handsome and capable centre half. Don’t take it out on us who like an early bed time
