Time for a keeper. I am filling the hardest category with one of the best keepers in the draft. It's very strange that he hasn't been picked yet.

All yours [MENTION=14929]Max Paper[/MENTION]

I'm happy, in a good mood, next three picks sorted. Quietly confident they won't get picked, that'll be my back four sorted as well as one of my attacking midfielder slots.

I need to include a current PL player, most of the big guns have gone but this guy is up there with the best of them. A modern day Mr Dependable, can play in various positions and boasts a healthy honours list:
1 Premier League title
3 FA Cups
1 Champions League
1 Europa League
PFA Team of the Year

With over 200 league appearances under his belt and 20 goals it's about time he joined the party, hello to Branislav Ivanovic.
[MENTION=17456]The_Viper[/MENTION] , you're up

Alright chaps I need my back line fleshing out and I'll do it with a left back who has honours as long as anyones, gutted Zabaleta has gone on the right side however, this, my first choice left back was still up for grabs somehow!

Let's add some vavavoom, step up Patrice Evra
[MENTION=278]MattBackHome[/MENTION] up next.

Promoted with Hull in his final season as a professional.

So good they named him twice.

JAY JAY OKOCHA
[MENTION=22841]stripeyshark[/MENTION]

The next 3 players on my shortlist. All Gone. In A row. In less than 4 hours.

F*ck this game.

[MENTION=225]Hamilton[/MENTION] up next

 

[Hamilton]

I'm rather pleased with this pick.

I'm going for 6 times Premier League winning Nicky Butt, the last of the Class of '92 to go.

 

[Hamilton]

[MENTION=6505]Foolg[/MENTION] you are up next

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Can I confirm that we're judging players on their premier league peak years? It's the assumption I've been working on but there doesn't seem to be any mention of it in the o.p. so I might have made that up...

Also, I'm going to bed...I suspect that my turn will come up while I'm sleeping. Because I have two picks that means technically I have 12 hours, right? Not that I'll need them but I might need more than the six for one pick.

yep, once i've had my pick you have 6 hours for your first pick and 6 for your next so technically you have 12 yes, and then it's back to me

Overall Premier League career isn't ? Otherwise Amr Zaki would be a tremendous shout after his red hot half season for Wigan?

 

[Guy Fawkes]

Just back from Cardiff and have to say I hate you Hamilton for your last pick
[MENTION=1349]turienzo's lovechild[/MENTION] you're up (should have been from 8pm but no notifications made)

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Well, yeah, there is that. I meant a peak that lasted a couple of seasons or more rather than a brief run of form. I'm sure I read it was their peak years that they'll be judged on but I can't find it now. [MENTION=15934]Rohana[/MENTION] can you clarify, please?
[MENTION=6505]Foolg[/MENTION] time is now up. [MENTION=1349]turienzo's lovechild[/MENTION] is now up.

I know why you're asking, and who you're after then...

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

[turienzo's lovechild]

[MENTION=286]Garry Nelson's Left Foot[/MENTION] now has his two picks.

 

[Frutos]

Am I right in thinking that [MENTION=6505]Foolg[/MENTION] and [MENTION=14929]Max Paper[/MENTION] have catch-up picks to make?
