Sorry @JB7 @RedRazor you've both missed out but the Stoke draft will be on after this draft ends so you both still have a chance at players.

@Flying Fox your turn.
 
Hazard hits 90!

Ridiculous selection headache on the cards though especially with the concerns already there.

Yeah. Your problem is a bit more to do with the number of 89 rated players you have in attack that you can't loan out

My 90+ rated midfield/attacking players I've been able to manage:

Toni Kroos (28/95 DM,M,AM(C))
Antoine Griezmann (27/95 AM,F(RLC))
Paul Pogba (25/93 DM,M,AM(C))
Christian Eriksen (26/93 M(C),AM(RLC))
Alarcon Isco (26/93 M(C),AM(RLC))
Kylian Mbappe (19/93 AM,F(RLC))
Dele Alli (22/92 M(C),AM(RLC))
Raheem Sterling (24/92 AM,F(RLC))
Leon Goretzka (23/91 M(C),AM(RLC))
Julian Brandt (22/90 AM(RLC),F(RL))
Anthony Martial (23/90 AM,F(RLC))

Your 89+ rated midfield/attacking players:

Thiago Alcantara (27/94 DM,M,AM(C))
Harry Kane (25/94 F(C))
James Rodriguez (27/93 M(C),AM(RLC))
Marco Reus (29/93 AM,F(RLC))
Ilkay Gundogan (28/92 DM,M,AM(C))
Alvaro Morata (26/92 F(RLC))
Felipe Anderson (25/90 M(RL),AM(RLC))
Thorgan Hazard (25/90 AM,F(RLC))
Kingsley Coman (22/90 AM,F(RLC))
Youri Tielemans (21/89 DM,M,AM(C))
Max Meyer (23/89 DM,M,AM(C))
Bryan Cristante (23/89 DM,M,AM(C))
Armindo Bruma (24/89 AM,F(RL))

You've only got two more than me total but your players are a lot less versatile on the whole.

Yeah, true. I have a set of CMs and a set of wingers. Very few can play both. Its not that big a problem in isolation but does make it tougher. 89s are the biggest problem, feckers don't get loaned out and you are always wary of playing them.
