Made a safe pick and it paid off. Need to start adding some word class players in attack now though before everyone is blocked. Tugay was quality and knew he would probably get through.
I would honestly let Wijnaldum jizz in my face right now

Yeah beat me to it, Henry hasn't had a red in the Prem.
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.

I was thinking Mascherano  :-X

Missed out on this. This could prove to be very costly. What an absolute tit for not paying attention to the deadline. Blurred, can we stick to the 24 hour format and 7 PM GMT? That's how we did it in the earlier sheep drafts. Everyone gets 24 hours. You can change it as many times in that time frame. That is, if everyone is fine with it.

Maybe just read the criteria fully next time?

It's fine as it is, and I think it's good to call it once everyone's picked. If you're not sure bout your pick, just wait till the deadline instead of picking and then changing.

Round Four

I've been too easy on you so far, offering up categories that are far too easy to select from. Let's go for some mediocrity and difficulty.

Criterion -  Select a player who has scored a Premier League own goal in his career.

Deadline - 7pm GMT on 12th January, or when all drafters have submitted their selection (whichever is sooner).

Simple. "Once a Blue, always a Blue."

Round Five please.

You actually had 24.5 hours :nirnir

I never said that we got less than 24 hours. Only that Round 2 was less than 24 hours which resulted in a deadline shift for Round 3.
It's my fault though. Should be paying more attention. Lesson learnt. You won't be waiting for my picks to end the rounds from now on. I am sending them early from now on.

I'm not implying anything.

It's quite clear to everyone that the irony of you criticising me for having a 4th defender as a libero (and 2 genuine defensive midfielders) while you only have 3 defenders behind 7 attackers in any of your teams has been lost on you  :wave
