Taking Cantona for United instead of Leeds. Interesting.
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.

Made our pick.  JK had to go homer on this one (my two favorite players on LFC 2020) - Bobby and Virg

Did he specify though?

Can you not just change who he represents later, should we really have been putting teams after each pick?

No you should be doing it at the time of your pick.

I think we should be specifying with the picks if it's someone who's won it with more than 1 team.

Best certainly...  Great pick.

Van Nistlerooy over Firmino - well lets just say you'll have to work for that. 

Although I am delighted you double manc'ed it in the first two rounds.  :)

I PM'ed Flash - are we up against it?

Love Bobby but wanted a pure forward with Best already in the team instead of inside forwards like Salah and Mane.

I think George Best might be the most objectionable of all considering what an utter wanker he was off the pitch!
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.

He's oddly likeable though.

He's one of only about 3 non-offensive manc picks. The rest are various shades of turd.

Claus picked a goalie in the second round. Beyond help this bloke.

Head and shoulders above every other keeper in it.

Also I think I had about ten other players in mind and they all went.
Maybe the group, led by your leadership, will see these drafts as PR functions and brilliant use of humor

Hey Claus, fuck off.

Everyone loves an underdog story, so here's to you, Jordan Henderson.

You're among the biggest overachievers in the game right now, one who leads in their own way. And to think they once tried to replace you with a 30-year-old Clint Dempsey. Just imagine...

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.

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.
