I was going to pick someone else, had forgotten about pique. Blame @Hernandez - BFA for his post, went back to my shortlist and saw he was still available.I see a theme there...
Good pick with Pique.
Sorry, guys just woke up.
I told them not to tag you so much.
Such a weak league™
Finally Pique goes! Good Pique.

@The Red Viper
Stob you cnut.
I love this draft!One question. I've picked Luca Modric. Does he count as Croatian or Yugoslavian?
Croatia
I need to go to sleep now. As I'm going late to sleep I probably won't be on again until 12-15ish. Who is willing to receive my next pick?
I'll be around for a while

While i am a big fan of that pick from a player standpoint, I do think you could have waited another couple rounds. But still, good choice.
Couldn't take that risk. Did the same with Cambiasso last round and it backfired. Also, Hargreaves being considered for the Canadian nationality helps.

Good choice. Was torn on him...great player when fit and healthy. Can't decide if he's been tainted since being at United in some people's minds.
I have PM'ed my pick to @Skizzo
Damn it. @Isotope was around 45 minutes ago

Relax. It'll be your turn when you wake up.
I'll announce a 'surprise' and make sure you get the ex-United Brazilian Burger as a penalty.

I have Snow and Barney's picks too. I'm banking on you having to leave again and I'll take over the draft
Well I'm heading to bed. I have @Snow and @Barney picks but it looks like they'll be back around before this moves anywhere.
I'll leave them with @Joga Bonito (my scout/AM) just in case.

I hate you so bad, great pick.

I was confident he'll fly under the radar here, as he was born in 1980, plus the Canadian thing is great too. feck my life, that could've been good for me. I hate you.
I'm absolutely gutted with not getting Hargreaves, could've allowed Yaya and Pogba to run riots. @The Red Viper your team looks brilliant. Best of the lot imo
To add an eye candy to my team, that badly need it. La Liga king of assist (before getting injured):

I was amazed he was still about.He isn't the main guy I'm thinking of though. There's still some cracking players about.
I was seriously considering taking Pique as a sweeper if he was still available after the hammering Kompany seems to be getting, I suppose I could still stick De Rossi in the middle of a back 5.
The top half moves so much quicker than the bottom or the middle.
