6. Bodo Illgner
Yes he PM'ed me but I just turned up now.
This is very hard, but I'll go for Guillermo Amor.

Darko Pancev
Darko Pancev
beautiful choice there K Stand, i'll vote for you even if you're up against me
Thanks
Not sure that it is the best choice left BUT this competition is supposed to be based on the selected players at their peak and there was none better when this guy was at his best
600 games at right back and centre back for AC Milan, three Champions League titles, five Serie A titles.
Mauro Tassotti
Mauro Tassotti
Sorry pal. I was just eating my tea before I PM'd you
Not a problem.
so you Brits eat your tea? I'd like to know more about that since I'm trying to emulate absolutely every aspect of a standard Anglo-Saxon existence
at which temperature is tea eaten, and at which does it start being considered as inhalated?

Mauro Silva, one of the finest defensive midfielders of his generation.
He was a Spanish Champion, a South American Champion and a World Champion, being the midfield lynchpin of the Deportivo side that won La Liga (and finished runners-up in 4 other seasons) as well as an important member of the Seleção Brasileira, starting every match of Brazil's triumphant World Cup campaign in 94.

Has Dan Nistelroy lost one of his picks?
David Platt

6 hour deadlines not working out too well then.
From the Netherlands and Ajax
Aron Winter
Aron Winter
Des Walker
Circa 1990, he was one of the top 3 centrebacks in the world, playing a starring role in England's run to the semi-finals of the World Cup, keeping Van Basten and Klinsmann in his pocket along the way.

Amazed it took so long for WAlker to be picked. At his peak there were few better.
Des Runner was that extra bit better. And Des Sprinter was fecking amazing in comparison.
DanNistelrooy should have PMed someone to help him. When he did not so and his 6 hours was up, IBleedRed can proceed to pick. If IBleedRed does not pick within 6 hours of the expiry of DanNistelrooy's 6 hours, then it will be my turn i.e. after 12 hours of IBleedRed's last pick, the draft can continue for the rest of us. If a manager misses his turn by 24 hours or more, like Enigma did earlier in the game, I would have to consider recruiting a replacement manager.

The best ones are fast going now
Very good player but I'm sure he played predominantly on the right side?
I was going to choose him as a left midfielder funnily enough
I always thought he was predominantly on the left, either way, he is one of these players who can switch sides
You can always have David Cameron on the right wing, born in 1966 and all.. he meets the criteria
Yeah, certainly a right sided player but it wasn't uncommon to see him on the left - in the game in Turin back in '99 he played left.
What is the slowness here. Brwned and I are ready to dazzle you all.
Since 6 hours has passed since K Stand Knuts turn started I assume I'm free to pick?
Going to grab Roma legend Aldair.

My turn then...

Yes, after 6 hours has lapsed, draft skips to you and proceeds as normal, K Stand Knut can pick a player once he returns, nobody received a PM from him?
