The Modern / Current Players Draft

II've got three that all seem equally appealing, and at least another two that seem like solid choices also.

I'd love to know who those five are.

Personally think it's a no brainer but we all see it differently.
 
Hmm I won't mind being a scout as it's not such a time consuming role. PM me if you want one.
 
Xavi? If @Pat_Mustard pulls a good team around him, it will be amazing. I'm not even bothering to think of my pick. All the good ones will be gone by the time I'm up.

That's pretty much my attitude at this point, already put my shortlist aside for now. Bit bummed I didn't get the last spot..but at least im close enough for it still to be a bit of an advantage.

Well I'll have to pull some sort of partnership out of my ass with my pick or I'm fecked basically. Pool of great players is tiny. The best one (Ronnie) just went IMO

Yeah, think that was really the only truly top tier one available...unless I've completely overlooked some.

I had a strategy but as soon as Ronnie became available, strategy out the window :/

feck it. Looking through the pool, there's only one that jumps out as an undisputed GOAT in his position. I'll asuredly get loads of shite for playing him in a non-Barca formation but I choose:

Xavi

It's insane that's even a criticism.
 
Ronaldinho, a great and still a fecking waste, I just assumed he was outside the age limit, didn't even consider him, not that I would have gotten him anyway.

Probably the best available player.
 
Ronaldinho is the best vote magnet on this draft and a great player to say the least but if the set up is right, I'd rate Xavi higher. Easier said than done though, esp with the scarce resources available but looking forward to see how Pat utilizes him.
 
Wow, this one I'm quite interested in, please let me know if there's a waiting list if anyone drops out.
 
Btw, this one was done 4 years ago (only players born on or after June 25, 1987), just wondering if it's about time we try it again.

*Messi was born June 24, 1987
