Deadline for Pick 2 : 0100 UK time, 19 Feb or when I get the last pick.
@Pippa quite hard to argue against Irwin / Giggs in a United forum. Others are quality too. Looking to set up something solid but with flair. Good picks.
So finally someone has managed to block Chesterlestreet.
Fail and Fail
But then I managed to block Chesterlestreet

GKs running out quickly

I knew you were going to go Gattuso
He is perfect for the diamond, to be fair.
After reaching round 7 I have managed to discover that Excel has a built in feature that highlights duplicate entries.
OK I was about to go off on one because I thought Brazilian Ronaldo hadn't been picked yet

Is that who you were on about before, when you said everyone missed a really obvious player?

Nah
But someone looking for a playmaker needs to take a long hard look at themselves....If that is considered as a bad hint, I'll delete.
feck you @Pippa
Holy crap, I love you guys
Nah

Nah, it's fine.
Back to the drawing board!
No sheep there. Either you get a bonus player or not.
fecking bloodshed right there
I knew I should have considered moving away to a goalkeeper
@ my new signings Holy crap, I love you guys
You should love me. ME! I was the only one who could have had a pop at HIM.
There I was sitting there and helplessly watching how both he and Bergomi would go despite being in a position to have a pop at both
I'm being way too nice and getting no credit for it. Even managed to make it exciting for you!
I was about to tell you to get rid of that
Glad you edited it.Although, if you meant who I thought you were talking about, I wouldn't be surprised if someone already has him/someone will block him this round whether the hint was seen or not
Pippa keeps posting stuff then editing back to smilies. Do you think all other managers are just sitting around watching in real time?
I can't pick the player I want based on a technicality.
PS: He's not really the "finest". Just a light attempt at humour.

Let me guess, you too fell into the trap of coming up with targets who played with the other pick. No? I had 2-3 targets for A yesterday, then realised the only link they had with my team was... with B
I was pretty sure, you would stay away from him with the players you have so far. I was more worried about Edgar.You should love me. ME! I was the only one who could have had a pop at HIM.

Yeah, that's it. He's a brilliant player too for his position.Let me guess, you too fell into the trap of coming up with targets who played with the other pick. No? I had 2-3 targets for A yesterday, then realised the only link they had with my team was... with B
Yeah, I told him about digging into Baggio earlier just to piss around with you. No shit though, link to Bergomi at Inter, but also Milan, Juve... feck me sideways, he was valuable here. Maybe linked to too many good players and obvious targets?
There's a REALLY interesting piece of work to be done on those vote results but I won't spoil it for those still choosing. It's brilliant though, I can see a truckload of blocks in the second round as well.
Alright, I got my next pick.
.Are you worried about Aldo's warnings now? I'm really looking forward to the next 2 criteria, the 183cm one would have been a great one for the next round with so many still looking for a goalkeeper. The goalkeeper bloodbath really could continue for a while.

Like anto said, this is as good a criteria as you can have to get a keeper.
So, don't hope much from the future rounds.
Sent my pick, expecting a block or player already been picked, but it's worth a shot.

That would be fecking mean!
This was ideal indeed, had I missed out on either of my targets I could have quite easily picked a goalie, yet passing on them for a goalkeeper made no sense.
The warnings have been geared towards getting a keeper before the end of round 9, I would expect keepers to be "pickable" in the next couple of rounds, just harder and riskier given the number of people out for one.
What's doing my head in right now is, that aside, I know EXACTLY who I want for the rest of the team and I'm pretty confident no one would go for them. The questions may leave them out of scope though, which would be a major turnoff TBH. Having to go for someone who doesn't fit the team at all to satisfy the question shouldn't be required, or am I wrong?
