Hold up, how can you have Gerrard and Houghton?

Houghton didn't play for LFC in the PL.

Left 1992.

[tubby]

Ah ok, fair enough.

Did Spink only play for Villa in the PL?

Can't seem to find out if I need to add other clubs?!

Yeah think it was just Villa.

[Lastrador]

There goes my slightly above average rightback.

[JSteve]

I will make my last pick later. Can't decide between Parlour and Petit.

[Betty Blue]

Batty is an excellent pick so late in the draft. I guess most teams were blocked off from him.

Petit played for Chelsea, so definitely Parlour!

[tubby]

Batty is an excellent pick so late in the draft. I guess most teams were blocked off from him.

Yeah was sweating on him a bit, trying to work out who could still pick him.  Feel he'll work well with Modric.

Final line up:

[JSteve]

Petit played for Chelsea, so definitely Parlour!

I always forget that bit.

[Klippity Klopp]

Is it me?

[Sir Psycho Sexy]

Caceras hasn't made a single appearance in the PL.

[Klippity Klopp]

Caceras hasn't made a single appearance in the PL.

Yep you can't have him.  Sorry.

[Lfsea]

Yep you can't have him.  Sorry.

Thought being on the subs bench was sufficient?

[Klippity Klopp]

Thought being on the subs bench was sufficient?

Good try. 

Only Premier League clubs count.

The club that a player might have previously played for in the old Div 1 don't count.

The players have to have made an appearance as well.  Even if it is just one sub app. 

So no Peter Shilton.

Meaning - coming on the pitch as a sub.  Not just being on the bench.

[Lfsea]

Good try. 

Meaning - coming on the pitch as a sub.  Not just being on the bench.

Tbf that's in a secondary post.

[Betty Blue]

Tbf that's in a secondary post.

Would you really want us to judge Caceres off no appearances for Southampton 

[Klippity Klopp]

[Lfsea]

Would you really want us to judge Caceres off no appearances for Southampton 

Let's be realistic, no one's doing that

[Rysoph76]

[Klippity Klopp]

Who's up?

[Rysoph76]

I wasn't sure so haven't PMd anyone after I did my pick

Never known the momentum to piss away from a draft quite like it has in this

Not sure why. 

[Betty Blue]

I'm guessing that Vishwa wasn't aware that we're skipping El Lobo and therefore no-one has been PMed to know it's their turn.

[Sir Psycho Sexy]

Not sure why. 

all the good players gone, people struggling to pick decent players, and having to search hard to actually find someone they've heard of to fit their team

[Sir Psycho Sexy]

picked heaton, who did not make an appearance for utd ... please dont make me look again

[Lastrador]

[Hazell]

[Klippity Klopp]

It has all gone quiet!

[Betty Blue]

[Betty Blue]

It has all gone quiet!

I think only 4, Mondzz, and El Lobo still have picks to make now.

[4]

Didn't realise I was okay to make my pick, won't be long!

[Vishwa Atma]

[Klippity Klopp]

Unfortunately you can't have Joel Ward as he played in the PL for Portsmouth, as did Berkovic.
