Football Fantasy Draft

so in about 2.5 hours the next guy (sajeev?) can pick - however he is in India so might already be asleep by then!

Timezones can create some issues here - if you have someone in West Coast USA followed by an Indian then there could be major delays
 
Ooops ill go with

Real Madrid and Spain international

Xabi Alonso
 
And my first pick is a cult hero at Old Trafford. While he might not have been successful here, he has gone on to achieve a lot elsewhere. Also led his team to the Copa America - Diego Forlan

I have a flight to catch now. Will post my second pick in a few hours from now.

Or
I choose another World Cup winner in Daniele De Rossi (much earlier than I wanted too) but I wanted a midfielder first up :mad:

Robin van Persie
 
suprised it took that long for RvP - i would put him higher than Drogba, Torres or Forlan on recent form
 
Wasn't sure at first. Thought it was one of the twins Halloween costume or something.
 
Definitely and the fact that he is injury prone shouldn't really affect this type of game either

Just to clarify for the benefit of everybody, do we consider the player's appearance record (injuries, suspensions etc) when we evaluate his form over the past two years (the timeframe specified by KM)? or we put that aside and only evaluate based on the player's performances for whatever match time he clocked on the pitch?
 
I am wondering who'd be the first to risk the wrath of the Caf and pick the guy who isn't currently playing...

Can we assume (and allow) Minkaro to pick Chris Woods and let me go ahead? :angel:
