Right so the draw has been made. If you still want to join after this you can but you’ll have to do so before the end of the first round and you’ll be added to the back.


This is the order for the picks…

1) @Riou
2) @Juan Matas Beard and @Gooner416
3) @A_G
4) @jones and @albakos
5) @pigge
6) @Uncle Good-Advice and @SA Gunner
7) @Oxeki
8) @Rex Bezos and @Trilly
9) @Sapient Hawk
10) @bingobob
11) @Clrnc
12) @farzad4daarse

That means that @Riou you are on the clock.

Don’t forget after the 2nd round the order flips on it’s head.

No discussion in this thread, only picks.


Tag the next person who is after you, so they know it’s their pick.

3 goals and 3 assists while establishing himself as one of Europe’s premier holding midfielders, Fabinho 2016/17:

Next up the human juggernaut, never before or afterwards seen combination of raw strength and technique, the "defend in his own box jog with the ball to the other box then score"-man, the brute-destroyer of birthday-cakes, the midfield general himself, Yaya "wallahi better than your CM" Touré 13/14

PAUSE THE GAME!

To counterract any gaming of the simulator system I'm instituting a new rule...

From this pick onwards any player you choose must have reached the Champions League quarter finals at minimum and have played in over half the games to get there! This will be called the Yaya Toure rule.

This is a Champions League draft not a "great player who was amazing in the league that season the same season their team did f*ck all in the CL".

@pigge you may continue as normal you have 10 minutes left.

Ok so @Oxeki has taken a worse player than the randomiser gave him but still...

As for our pick it's a CL two time winner who was an absolute demon in 2003/04. 2 goals and a monstrous 10 assists from midfield for the eventual winners. It had to be Deco.

So @bingobob wants Harry Kane. He initially requested but that doesn’t meet the updated rules….

So the only season he can have is 2018/19 where he still bagged 5 times despite missing most of the knockouts.

Youngest to 20 goals in CL history apparently

I've also got @bingobob pick and he's gone with the star name from that 1999 CL winning side Goldenballs. Great player it has to be said, always one I wished had played for us. Way too cultured for Ferguson and his lot.

It's David Beckham 1998/99

Kalou needs an able striking partner to punish the foolish defenses that have the audacity to take my team of mythological warriors on.

And who better to have lead my line other than...

So for us it’s the best defender on that 2008 Utd team. He played every minute of the knockouts where they conceded just two goals before the final including a shut out home and away against peak Messi Barcelona in the semis.

The only right back to eclipse Dani Alves during his reign of terror. Fixture for a treble winning Inter, scored an extremely important goal in the semis vs Barcelona, indomitable in defence, by far the best RB in 09/10
