By the way, shouldn't the club in point 9 say Birmingham? :p I think the number of players bit is copied from the last draft too.

Great job with the draft anyway. I'll sign in and accept bids in about an hour.

Did Roma get skipped because I can't understand how Gerson didn't get a rise after seeing Maia get one
I don't have any Napoli players in this GW, but they well and truly got screwed over in that review.

Shocking end really.

Roma should have been

De Rossi -1
Gerson +1
Schick +1

Napoli

Ghoulam +1
Allan +1
Albiol +1
Hysaj +1
Jorginho +1

Inter

Icardi +1
D'Ambrosio +1
Eder -1

Juve

Khedira -1

Plus loads of other 60/40 decisions that never happened. Considering players like sokratis got a rise so many quality players missed the ratings they deserved.
 
Barnsley Serie review A - total 5 players.

Bold = change before Predictions
Green = better than
Red = less than
Blue = correctly predicted

Aleksandr Kolorov (90) no change
Bruno Peres (89) no change
Mario Mandzukic (92) - 1 = no change
Nicholas Haas (82) no change
Facundo Collido (70) +5 = no change
Luis Felipe (76) = +2 (78)

Meh!
