Muller and Koscis, two of the best international strike rates of all time. That'll do.

What I'm loving about this is that players don't know who will come up in later rounds.

With Saints wonderful one, it was kind of like "Lets hold off and wait for xxxx to be avaliable", with this you have to go for it when you see a player you need, just incase.

He might throw in Mansfield vs Luton or something next :D
We already have shit in the country, and the game of Liverpool fills life with joy. Thanks

This next round is going to be carnage.

No, you're right. Prof is it too late to change my picks? Going to bide my time til Anthony Le Tallec comes available.

Sorry Nick it's too late.  You'll have to make do with Muller instead Mellor too.  Bad luck.

Very happy with Hoeneß for 2m. Never know when his tax evading skills might come in handy either, especially in a draft like this one.

Let's try and keep 16 players. A draft like this won't work with a reduced field. You need competition for players.

Anyone want to take over Psycho's team?

Okay you have 100 million to bid on players from a category Prof chooses  If you take over SPS team he has three players Gerrard, Maldini and Paulo Rossi.  \Whoever bids the highest gets the player.

All on the first post of this thread. SPS spunked a lot on Gerrard/Maldini so your remaining budget needs to be spread thinly across several players unless you sell one of your assets.

28 million but you can sell Maldini or Gerrard for big money.  ;D

I think it's 14 rounds. We're on 7 now.

If you look on this page above Prof has attached a spreadsheet showing who has which players, for how much and how much budget they have left.

You can also see the bidding from the last round.

The next round is round 7 of 12.  The list of players are in the other thread fro which you can bid for.

Grabowski is for sale for £18 million.

Come on Max.
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.
