No problem :wave

If not then everyone's going to start messing around with already picked players real soon!

Actually, just realised it's the lawnmower's turn!

He was like Konchesky and London clubs, but just a tier up.

Alisson was not eligible to be selected for Bobby due to his first-round Gerrard pick and I needed to get my pick in to be sure because my main computer at the office is not yet reconnected to the internet. Bobby next, then Tubby.

Good night everyone :wave

Can we make a call re: JordanTre and Philanthropist please.

'Zombie' teams where those drawn against them get a first-round bye is my view.

Should we make the picked players available from a certain round onwards, however? It's just a bit weird to suddenly abandon your own draft dammit...

I’m pretty sure you can’t have a week picking VVD for Liverpool and then change him to Southampton a minute before you then pick Alisson
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.

There’s one thing following different rules, but there is never a rule where you can retrospectively change your pick.

Well if you change the rules mid-games then certain people would want to change their picks too.

That's why I suggested that we stick to the "players being judged for performances at the team selected" and allow the few cheesy picks to be repicked, changed etc.

Now everyone is picking cheesy players. Its a mess. Obviously if you selected VVD for Southampton and changed to Liverpool to meet what JT said, you would want to change back.

Is Gallas at Spurs a cheesy pick? Can change if so. He played more games for Chelsea and Arsenal but played 61 league games in three seasons there and captained them for a bit so I’d say it’s legit.

No he's not. Nor was vvd for southampton and mane but if they've been selected for a team already then changing them now just adds to the clusterfuck of the whole thing. 7 rounds in here

Was at his peak at Chelsea. Was hot and cold for Arsenal. At Spurs, he had one good season and then he was past his best and was mostly a squad player.

Yeah but none of that really matters as he's judged across his pl career or at the least according to op..."Players judged at their time in the PL at the club they thrived at most"

First off as Southampton, then I was asked by Tremenderson to change him to Liverpool but then the consensus was to go by rules as written which is 'judged by their performance at their best club' which said nothing about which club you'd pick them for.

Since I picked him at Southampton at first to me there's no doubt that's legitimate, the same as Lobo strongly indicated while picking Mané he wasn't sure which club he wanted him for.

Bottom line is, this is Tremendo's doing and he's deserted the trenches to grasslands much greener and we're now having quite a fun anarchy. I'm obviously not winning the draft anyway, hell half the covid thread will probably show up just to vote against my team to own the Lin so I'm just in here trying to have fun and pick the best team that I can ;D

Can I shock you. I like Linudden’s Iberian draft suggestion.

Cheers mate, at least in that instance it's abundantly clear that cheese is legal if you played 26 games and the rules are very simple.
