I still don't fully understand what I have to do

What don't you understand?

Have you not been following it?

By the end of the selection process you have to have a full XI team and manager, with each of them fitting into one category. So one player has to have had 70 international cap, one never to have played in a World Cup, one to have played Brighton and so on. You can't have the same player/manager as anyone else and have to have a sensible formation. You now get to pick 2 players who you want in your side.

Get it?

Tom Cleverly and Emile Heskey. That's all you need to say

Shhhh, I want those two!

 

[Gullflyinghigh]

I'm now beginning to understand just how tough this will be by the time of the last pick. I currently only have two players who've not already been grabbed left...nightmare!

 

[Shatner's Bassoon]

Shhhh, I want those two!

Messi feeding off Heskey's knockdowns? No point the rest of us playing!

Yup, this is going to get VERY tricky the further into it we go.

Sorry! I don't know what came over me, I know its against the rules to mention any undrafted players...

Between you trying to nick my players and [MENTION=23606]Shatner's Bassoon[/MENTION] giving away my strategy, I'm tempted to lodge a formal complaint.

I will, just don't think we need it after every pick. I will every so often though!

I am sad and have a running list going in a spreadsheet

I am pretty much as sad - I'm using Word rather than a spreadsheet to just give a straightforward list of those picked, but the effect is much the same.

 

[Rohana]

Sorry out for a meal but I've snuck on to keep the draft going.

My second pick will be a brilliant defender and a exceptional athlete. Tiago Silva

Will post details/categories when I get in. [MENTION=23606]Shatner's Bassoon[/MENTION] is up now.
