Topic: All Time PL Draft - With a Twist! (Discussion Thread & Sign up)

[Sheer Magnetism]

I've decided to go scorched earth in this draft and pick the players traditionally undervalued because of personal emnity. I know, I know, bold strategy Cotton, etc.

[Adz LFC]

Any sign of Xabi?

[El Lobo]

Yeah Tubby picked him

[XabiArt]

Sorry lads, in work.

Happy to pick Chelsea's best ever defender.

[Sheer Magnetism]

Woah woah woah. Woah. I picked Captain Leader Legend.

[XabiArt]

Carvalho was the far better player. You know it, you just forgot to pick him.

[Drinks Sangria]

Who's up now?? I'm lost due to my lack of intelligence and I have Linudden's next pick. Awful decision to leave it with me like.

Carvalho was going to be my Chelsea pick. I've gone to the well early with Liverpool, Arsenal and Man Utd, the Premier League's three greatest ever teams. Carvalho made Terry look better than he was, which Ferdinand did for Vidic also.

[Crosby Nick]

Carvalho was the far better player. You know it, you just forgot to pick him.

You’re both wrong.

[XabiArt]

You’re both wrong.

Think Huth was better at Leicester tbf.

[Lastrador]

By the looks both Jordan and Sarge missed their turns, it's Lobo's turn?

[El Lobo]

I'll go at 2 if they've not picked by then

[Hazell]

It’s another of Linuddens alter egos. I did suspect when the only thing he was ever sensible about was office quotes.

I thought whose a surefire vote winner and Rooney was the first player that came to mind.

[Drinks Sangria]

Can someone PM me please when it gets to Linudden’s pick. I’m going to be sporadically unavailable for the next 2 hours and I want to avoid the indignity of sending pictures of Leo Bonucci to my colleagues on Teams.

[Linudden]

I made my pick yesterday, I'm off for two hours from now onwards but after that I'm going to be okay

[vivabobbygraham]

I've got Sarge's picks. Shall I post both now? Seems way out of kilter?

[vivabobbygraham]

I've posted Sarge's first. Isn't there someone below Sarge though? What's his face?

[vivabobbygraham]

Philanthropist. Where's he at?

[El Lobo]

Philanthropist. Where's he at?

He said he's off for a couple of hours but after that should be okay

[XabiArt]

Sorry for the hold up.

Ronaldo Keane Carvalho Cole

Strong first 4 if I say so myself.

Vote winning stuff. Four good players in isolation though!

[tubby]

So going by the opening post in the selection thread (which I don't think has changed), then Campbell will be judged on his Arsenal career?  Still a bit fuzzy on this stuff.

That was the original plan, but he’s supposed to be judged on his time at Pompey now…

[tubby]

Yeah that's why I'm asking, can always switch him.

[El Lobo]

Yeah. Campbell at Portsmouth, Keane at Forest and VVD at Southampton

[Linudden]

Virgil is at Liverpool now though.

[El Lobo]

Did Tremenderson allow picks to be changed a day later?  Fair play, the lads a maverick

[tubby]

Changed Sol to Arsenal.  Update the OP innit, Tremenderson.

[Adz LFC]

No worries

That’s how I’ve drafted and will be judging players anyway!

[Adz LFC]

Everyone just needs to put the initials of the club alongside their player in the formations - e.g. Kante (LEI). Simples.

Good shout this btw - so hopefully everybody does!

If not I’ll be immediately suspicious

[Lawnmowerman]

That was the original plan, but he’s supposed to be judged on his time at Pompey now…

No he feckin isn't!! jaysus 3 days into this and people are still sleepwalking! he's judged across his whole pl career mate. picking him for portsmouth was perfectly acceptable

[Lawnmowerman]

Changed Sol to Arsenal.  Update the OP innit, Tremenderson.

your pick was fine mate. change him back to portsmouth. the team he's selcted for only matters if he's barely played for them so it's not a pisstake pick

[El Lobo]

I'm changing Sadio back to Southampton then, and Essien to Oldham.

[tubby]

[Lawnmowerman]

I'm changing Sadio back to Southampton then, and Essien to Oldham.

There's nothing wrong with sadio at southampton or VVD. they both played for numerous seasons. the minimum appearance for a team if there was one to stop pisstake picks wouldn't be anywhere near the amount of games they played for them

[Lastrador]

Wait what? Lman, stop messing with Jordan’s head.

[Crosby Nick]

Essien was boss at Oldham. Almost kept them up but he was let down by Neil Redfern alongside him.

[Lawnmowerman]

Wait what? Lman, stop messing with Jordan’s head.

They're his specific stipulations

[Linudden]

I changed VVD to Liverpool since Tremenderson basically wanted me to do it and since I don't think he was at his best at Southampton.

[Adz LFC]

[Crosby Nick]

Just seen Elmo has picked Cantona. Bullied a weak Premier League, but shite in Europe. Suppose it is a Premier League draft so he might be ok but still a bit overrated I reckon. Hated him at the time, obviously.

Is it Bobby then me? Popping out shortly but can leave my pick with a kind volunteer as I think I’m certain to get him.
