Ye well I have just logged on to find it is my go and I am definitely going for a CB, I have 3 on a piece of paper in front of me and one of them is JT - question is, should I risk the wrath of the Caf and go for him?
hmmm ...

I was also thinking this but opted for a goalie instead hoping someone would make the choice for me.

And then, actually, if it were down to just luck, then, Sharky should have had first pick for all the rounds. Erics' idea of having Sharky start and then when one round's done to have Melvin start was to give all a fair chance. And in this spirit of fairness, I was making my suggestion.

In the spirit of fairness it would probably be better not to change the rules halfway through the proceedings.

I could always do a Mourinho and put Essien at rightback... :smirk:
 
Vinay said:
You can't be serious about that... Essien will be less good any of the average RBs you might otherwise get...
Click to expand...

If Mourinho thought he was good at RB, who are you to argue otherwise... :nono:
 
Essien was a superb pick in fairness, didn't expect him to go so soon!

Was going to pick him unfortunately
 
Let's not forget the likes of Daniel Agger and Jamie Carragher, and even Peter Crouch! :lol:
 
Choose Carvalho. I would have liked Essien though.

Had some other names in mind, but I feared he would be gone before it's my turn again.

Well, it took me a while to decide between Essien & Carvalho...
 
At the moment I think most of us are probably looking at the same names for picks and almost all the picks so far are great players (there have been a couple of suprises for me, although I would say is down to the inevitable bias towards United players) - I think it will be later on in the process that we will start seeing some random choices and real differences in opinions

I'm stinking up the joint with this team atm,

I promise some favourites are on the horizon.
 
Good pick with Pires, thought I could snap him up later.

Your forming quite a formidable Arsenal side. Who's next? Senderos?

Nah man im settling for Ray Parlour in the 'Quarter-Back' position ;)
 
I don't know if my memory has played tricks on me, but, I rate Batty better than either Barry or Butt in the centre of midfield... And he was my choice as battling box-to-box midfield engine...

Some Chelsea players you may have forgotten who might fill gaps in people's squads....

Desailly (can't believe he's not gone yet)
Le Saux
Petrescu
Gullit (yes he was old but he was still fantastic for us)
Dennis Wise (I know you all probably hate him but meh)
