1. Only Gold managers will unfortunately be allowed to do transfers thanks to SM. If it is your turn in the draft and you don't have Gold – and you don't have any intention of getting Gold, please say "Skip" or "Pass" as we can't do the workaround anymore as they have patched it.
2. Time between picks is now 16 hours instead of the previous 12. I would prefer if you message me picks in advance to make things go faster.
3. Once you make your pick, bid face value for the player.

Draft order:

1. Sheffield United - £177.3M GOLD - RICO Lewis (£12m)
2. Norwich City - £186.2M GOLD - Ousmane Diomande (£14m)
3. Torquay United - £193.8M GOLD - Franca Wesley (£5.6M)

Sunderland's turn @Fenômeno

Rules:

1. Only Gold managers will unfortunately be allowed to do transfers thanks to SM. If it is your turn in the draft and you don't have Gold – and you don't have any intention of getting Gold, please say "Skip" or "Pass" as we can't do the workaround anymore as they have patched it.
2. Time between picks is now 16 hours instead of the previous 12. I would prefer if you message me picks in advance to make things go faster.
3. Bids will only be able to be made once the draft is over and the temp manager has resigned. Do NOT bid for other players than the one you picked.

Zinchenko for the LB/CM option?

Mannini for the wildcard Italian?

Pedri should be 94 for you.

Stones maybe drop
Sancho maybe drop

That’s about it other than your suggestions.

Stones, Sancho and Alaba are all down, easily.

Stones, Sancho and Alaba are all down, easily.

If it bleeds we can kill it.

Could this be the beginning of the downfall of United?

@Dom Gill you’re a better man than me.

I originally was going to do Risers, Rumours and Movers as the heading but wimped out of it when I realised there was only a handful of the team that weren’t linked elsewhere.

But having seen yours I feel duty bound to now.

Excellent effort!

To be honest, this is the most comprehensive one I have ever done.

I have done the risers before but never the whole team in one post during a review window.

Was fun though.

Bournemouth's turn. @Dans

Rules:

1. Only Gold managers will unfortunately be allowed to do transfers thanks to SM. If it is your turn in the draft and you don't have Gold – and you don't have any intention of getting Gold, please say "Skip" or "Pass" as we can't do the workaround anymore as they have patched it.
2. Time between picks is now 16 hours instead of the previous 12. I would prefer if you message me picks in advance to make things go faster.
3. Bids will only be able to be made once the draft is over and the temp manager has resigned. Do NOT bid for other players than the one you picked.

Draft order:

1. Tottenham Hotspur - £190.2M FREE MISSED OUT
2. Norwich City - £194.3M GOLD - Dybala £9.785m
3. Sheffield United - £197.3M GOLD - Ait-Nouri £12m
4. Torquay United - £200.7M GOLD - Quinten Timber (£12M)
5. Bury - £220.8M GOLD - Mattia Liberali (£180k)
6. Blackburn Rovers - £266.5M GOLD - James McConnell (£700k)
7. Bristol City - £280.3M GOLD - SKIP
8. Arsenal - £291.2M FREE
9. Sunderland - £313.7M GOLD - Adrian Bernabe (£4M)
10. Cardiff City - £323M GOLD - NEco Williams (£6M)
11. Southampton - £328.5M GOLD - Youssouf Fofana (£14M)
12. Fulham - £328.9M FREE
13. Kidderminster Harriers - £334.3M GOLD - SKIP

15. Manchester City - £360.4M GOLD

17. Milton Keynes Dons - £369M GOLD

If it bleeds we can kill it.

Could this be the beginning of the downfall of United?

That was when Hakimi got a +2 after I sold him. Really pissed off about that – there's no reason why he couldn't have got a +1 any time in the past four years as he was never injured.
