It also has something to do with the 6 English players only in the first team rule.
Yup, this was one of the main reasons I went for a non-english keeper early. Better to have a English outfielder.

@Stobzilla having a blinder here, seems that brutal feedback was a kick in the bollocks
Arrows!
Don't worry, mate: If there EVER was a draft pick who will appeal to scan voters on a United forum, you've landed him.
That one man is bound to be a very, very, happy man. Unless someone wants two keepers, which is fecking stupid. Mind you, @Cutch did it once getting two Krauts when the only draft restriction was... nationalities.
What's the theme for those three? How many nominations per manager?
@MJJ @Annahnomoss @Barney and @Gio probably need to pay attention to that info!

There is just another obvious right winger out there and it is doing my box in that no one has taken him.
So, what's the best XI for picked/nominated players? (ignoring the crappy country restrictions)
WM
...... Best ..... Charles ... Matthews ....
.......... Charlton .... Gascoigne ...........
........... Edwards ...... Stiles .............
.... Hapgood .... Moore .... McGrath ......
Finney for Gazza. Charles is debatable. Defence bar Moore is debatable too.
Stiles is HIGHLY debatable.

I still think Law is better than Charles up front in terms of talent, he's a more multifaceted striker who'd still be sublime in the modern game whereas Charles was a brilliant old school forward (if we're not discussing his CB prowess). On the other hand Charles done it in a foreign league which Law had the chance to play in and didn't succeed, so yep falls to pieces. Also isn't there more complete hardmen than Stiles in the draft?
Definitely.
Arguable too if you need a destroyer in that role. A defensively solid player should do it – and then heap some skills on top of that.
We all love Nobby – but he was a limited player compared to many of the alternatives here.
Very true. Easiest way to get one of 'em sorted.
EDIT That came out wrong. I'm getting dizzy from drinking too much coffee. Better switch to the beer.
You should have Given in the sticks there as well.So, what's the best XI for picked/nominated players? (ignoring the crappy country restrictions)

I have 5 players, need a minimum of 5 more nominations before the auction draft starts. I am sure @crappycraperson has a solution for it, it was brought up as an issue from the start that people may end up with sheep picks.

I'm ploughing into some Smithwicks ale now myself!
You mean as in: people get sheeped if they end up short of the dozen?
If you have ten men before the snake and no cash - you're fecked. Snakes cost money. So in that scenario I would think sheeping is the only solution.
2 nominations for this round are COMPULSORY for each player

Part of auction draft is that you have to but what is in front of you. (Though we do have 2 snake rounds to balance this somewhat)Can't I just get a few extra nominations from those who don't want more? Barney and MJJ are in the same position pretty much so they should share anything I would get.
I salute ye, brother!
Smithwicks, eh? That would be tasty right about now, actually. One for tomorrow's shopping list. Are you a stout man, Mustard?
I should have bunged Buffon up front. Fall by the sword and all that. He was only up against Nesta if I remember.Yep, retarded.
Speaking of which, remember when Gio had 2 keepers in a previous draft (decades) against me and due to a balls up with a pick it looked like he was gonna have to play Buffon upfront . Luckily for him i let him pick again
Aye, and then he had the opportunity to strengthen with some of the top Germans - probably Rummenigge, Matthaus or someone of that ilk - and the best option would've been to use a reinforcement pick on a third keeper.That one man is bound to be a very, very, happy man.
