My favourite thing so far, every round has been something we've never had before. Keeps it interesting for sure.You have a wide range of round ideas, @Michaelf7777777

We are both fecked if you can form the name of the player from the letters in that post.
Can we have 2 picks?
You can even have 3, depending on the clashes.

most likely alsoPick submitted......so many to choose from!
Thanks, mate - I do like it so far. Blanchflower hitting Kaltz on the run with a pinpoint pass - Kaltz then delivering a pinpoint cross into the box, where old Greavesy lurks. Old school but cool, as they say.
Yep, categories have been brilliant.
Sheepsintheteamovic (the older, I mean, obviously) isn't eligible for this draft. In fact, he's the only blocked player.
Obvious pick ever submitted.
Can everyone stop giving hints about their picks. Not cool.
It may not be their pick, but a double bluff to scare others.
Frankly I don't see any coordination type issues with what's been posted till now, so should be OK.
Been a hectic start to year at work, so haven't been paying attention to this now.
You couldn't deduce who Sjor picked? Let's see if it was actually a bluff.
Bluffs should be part of the game - not least in a less-than-super-serious draft (sheep qualifies as such).
They rarely actually happen, though, in my experience.
Most drafters are gents. I wouldn't mind more genuine mind games myself, actually, being a closet fan of the dark arts.

We need anto back!
And here comes the clarification:
When I did my initial short list I had Thuram down for both Monaco and Barca. I then realized there was a "can't have won anything" caveat in place - and, thus, the Barca part should have been scratched (they won the Supercopa, so the whole thing was a no-go). But it wasn't (scratched): because I copy/pasted Thuram's Barca season (not his Monaco one) in my PM to @Michaelf7777777.
And then, reading certain responses, I got my wires all crossed - in all sorts of ways - because my pick ended up blocked, simply, and not ineligible (which it actually was). In other words, for a brief (and maybe not entirely sober) time, I actually thought that someone had landed players from that Barca season: which included heavy hitters of the first water, of course.
Mike's mistake is very understandable, of course - since both Enigma and Mustard also picked Thuram on the same attempt. But - yeah - there it is. Like I said initially, though, it made no practical difference - the player was a bust.
Damn right, that's what I was thinking typing out that post.
We anywhere near a result?

Bloody @King Kendrick has been after same person twice now. Add in Pat and this gets insane.
I can’t unsee it now.

Not much loopholes on those criteria also. He must have learned a great deal teaming up with GSTQ last time
And dang. How did you guys find those players on Round 3? My "extensive" research just went as far as Bayern and Dortmund.
Eat a dick Jim!
Who invited Zlatan?
The feeling is mutual!
