Fowler being selected for blackburn would kill the draft

I've changed camp and am now pro chaos. Please pick Fowler at Blackburn, Weah at City, and Eto'o at Everton.

Just catching up. So what are picking/voting on? Cos I've been making my picks based on the clubs players were most successful at (and not cheating like some, naming no names, I don't know any but Andy Robertson at Hull?).

It doesn’t impact anyone else and gives people a bit of wiggle room so I don’t have too much of a problem with it.

Course it does. I still have a liverpool pick and I can  work out if I can hold it until the end if everyone has taken liverpool, meaning I can go stronger elsewhere knowing a player is safe waiting for me.

I say this.

1. We vote based on players based on their performance at the team they were picked for. (Most players are following this rule so far)

2. The people with Cheezy picks (there are only a 3 or so) can change the team of the player, re-pick or leave it as is.

In absence of JT, I think we should go with this.

Me too. We should have just stuck with the original idea which was as simple as you'd want i.e. an all time Premier League draft, it's just gotten too complicated now. This is why I hate drafting in large groups. Everybody has their own little opinions and it all gets homogenised, and you lose the whole edge of it.

The only thing lacking in this mess of a draft, is a John C visit, informing us that Jordan has been banned.

Their peak still needs to have been in the Premier League, picks like Eto’o, Weah and Hierro are still useless no?

You literally have Roy Keane for Nottingham Forest as your first pick in the draft so you should be jumping for joy here!
