Saw this idea on Cafe Rouge and as there’s a lot of debate about who the best players are from the PL era, let’s settle this:

16 participants (Will cap it at 16)

Copy and pasted the rules as followed:

• The idea is to pick a team of 11 players from the Premier League era (since the competition name first changed).
• You will be looking to pick the best players you possibly can for your team.
• The player is picked based upon there performances at their time in the Premier League (i.e. if you pick Andriy Shevchenko, his form at Kiev and Milan does NOT come into the equation during the competition).
• The player must also have played in a minimum of 2 different seasons in the league to prevent the selection of one season wonders.
• 16 people will participate
• Each person will be randomly drawn from a randomiser to be allocated a number between 1 and 16.
• Number 1 gets first pick, Number 2 gets second pick, Number 3 gets third pick and so on....
• Once Number 16 has picked, the first round of the draft is over. Then the order is reversed, and Number 16 gets to have first pick in the second round of the Draft, Number 15 gets second pick, Number 14 gets third pick etc.
• In the third round, Number 1 once again gets first pick after having last pick in Round 2. This sequence continues until 11 Draft Rounds have been complete.
• Once the draft is complete, the 16 teams will enter into a cup format competition, where there will be 8 matches.
• Each match will be decided upon the number of votes each team gets from the rest of the members not participating.
• The winner gets the opportunity to spend a luxury night out with @OnlyOne with all expenses paid for.
• Each member will get 2 hours to make their pick, if you miss the window then your pick is skipped and you get to select it at the end once the game is done.
• If the next picker is online and active in discussion he has only 20 minutes to make his pick

I’m sure @Riou with his nostalgia of the PL era will definitely sign up

Got dibs on Sonaldo

 

[2Smokeyy]

A-M ain’t ready for Smokeyy’s PL knowledge

I’m going to start tagging people in:

@DJ_Markstar @Taneruit @Tir Na Nog @Riou @Rex Bezos @Nacho @Oxeki @SA Gunner @Trilly @grange @A__G @Sapient Hawk @Makingtrax @farzad4daarse
@BergMan

Once the list is full, I’ll randomise the order and whoever is at the top will get the first pick then number 16 gets two picks.

Anyone else I forgot to tag, feel free to join.

All you have to do is make a pick from any player in the PL era and build a team.

I was actually going to tag you first but I thought you might go ghost a miss a bunch of your picks.

How do you win? If it’s that simple why all the writing?

Copy and pasted the rules from Red Cafe, so people know the order.

I’ll randomise the list and the first person gets the first pick (quite obvious everyone will go for Thierry first) then it goes down the list to number 16 who gets 2 picks then it’ll go in reverse order all the way back to 1 who will then get 2 picks until we build a squad of 11 players. Players will only be judged on their period within the PL.

A-M will vote who has the best team after a series of knockout matches.

Simple.

So I only have to pick two players? Can I go 16th?

Depends on the draw when I randomise it but remember there will be 15 picks before it comes to number 16’s double pick, so a lot of top players will be gone by then.

It’s the whole PL era so plenty of players available tbf.
