I think that is up to date

Really liked your Tielemans pick last round btw, had been strongly considering him myself

daithi1989

People saying they’ll be judging players on their best ability made him easier to draft Drinkwater. But yes, less said about Burnley/Villa this season, the better!

Keepers are in demand

I was going to pick him before the legends round but didn't think he'd played enough really compared to the Ox. Definitely a good pickup a round later.

I don't know, I think this round is as good as any for you to pick one up

I had 3 shortlisted before this round, Hart being one, so when he went I wasn't confident the other 2 would come back to me.

Ferris_Bueller

Jagielka a very solid pick, the longer this has been going on I thought he was forgotten about. I'm surprised by how long the talent is lasting, I thought by this stage we would be all picking bang average players but there are still some very good players available even at this point.

What happens when all of the picks are done? I understand it is not individual match ups like last years draft. Do we just all post up our teams and tactics/justifications and then have a vote for the best team or will there be an opportunity to comment on each team or what way does it work?

daithi1989

The last 2 picks have seen my list of 3 CBs reduced to 1, and if he goes too, I'll be right back to the drawing board!

redzerdrog

I have a 2 man shortlist for CB left with two picks to go before me!!!!

martyos121

Nearly took Jagielka last time, wishful thinking believing he’d been overlooked and would come back around. Excellent pick.

Was going to go for him but thought Morgan had a higher peak and was brilliant for a few seasons. Jagielka may be better for the game involved though with regards perception of him.

redzerdrog

Ugh Luke Shaw was my first choice pick for this round and as each pick went by I thought he would make it to me.

Ah well back to the drawing board

IncognitoMan

Forgot to send PM after my pick. Sorry about that.

Ferris_Bueller

Is redzer up again?

Yip.

daithi1989

And with Smalling gone, that’s the 3rd CB I had on my list! Was hoping him being away in Italy, he might have slipped through. Oh well

Shanotheslayer

Hidden gem by Redzer

redzerdrog

Fuchs is a good pick at this stage

Bounty Hunter

Fuchs may not be the greatest LB in this thing but def really good value at this stage. If you haven't picked a CM or a LB you could def say the same about Delph too. Had him on my list of potential CMs even though I think there may be a few more options available in that position than there are in another I need still.

Mr Nice Guy is up but I can't PM him as his inbox is full.

Bounty Hunter

Happy to see Grealish picked as I know I would have been tempted but he shouldn't be pushed out to the right even if he is flexible and that is where he would have to go with the players I have.

Interestingly he is picked in the same team as Maddison who he is often compared to so I'm guessing 2D will be playing him on the LW

Think others have had issues PMing him when they didn't put the . in Mr.Nice Guy but who knows now I just wait to see if him, Daithi & Wrestlemaniac make me have to rethink my plans.

Mr.Nice Guy

I got BH's PM. I'll have my pick up within the hour. Just getting something to eat atm.

Ferris_Bueller

Lallana is a great pick, had a look at who was left available earlier and he stood out by far as the best player left in the draft IMO, surprised he didn't go a lot earlier.

GLaDOS

Yeah was hoping he'd get through to me.

I had planned on drafting a CB, but had none left on my list, so need to go back and look them up again after the weekend to find one. Delighted to have Lallana in the bag. Happy with my midfield trio!

Bounty Hunter

Happy enough to have completed my defense (unless I add a CB go with 3 at the back with WBs and Henry & Kane as a duo up front in a 3/5/2 - 5/3/2) but I'll probably stick with my current formation.

edit: Rodri is a great pick by Marty, probably would have been my next pick. Hard to believe that in a current prem draft a guy that starts week in week out for City lasted this long

martyos121

Very happy with my last couple of picks, I always felt Rodri would be overlooked in this given his short time in the league but his ability is unquestionable and he’s almost a perfect fit for my team.

Finishing off the City trio in midfield was a no brainer too, even if I had to move Rodri slightly further forward than he’s used to playing since he left Atletico. I also have the option of moving Fernandinho back alongside Terry and choosing another midfielder later on depending on the lay of the land.

brianregan09

Sorry lads for the mixup(again) have my 2nd pic up now

Shanotheslayer

Really like Martys team. Looks very good.

Mitch Connor

I can't believe that GLaDOS has been allowed to seal the competition with a pick this late in the game. Grabs McT at this stage? an unbelievable steal.

The rest of you should be ashamed.

GLaDOS

Was a long 2 rounds waiting for him to get back to me :pac:

Ferris_Bueller

Will go down well with United fans anyway I was interested to see if Reece James would go. I really like him and it is a position where after the first few went there is not a whole lot of depth to. Some teams shaping up very well.

Shanotheslayer

Lads I just noticed that Victor Wanyama transferred to MLS in March(Bullsh!t) :pac: I assume he can't be picked?

Ferris_Bueller

Just replied to your post on the main thread will delete it now. I didn't pick him on that basis a few rounds ago! Think it will be back to the drawing board, would have been a nice pick.

Yeh that's no problem. Realized it must be to good to be true that he was still there!

To be honest, I'd have taken him rounds ago if the competition was player's current ability. However it's judged in their time in the PL and his lack of appearances are an easy stick to beat him with. There are a few similar players who I don't think are good picks based on this. Not played a full season as first choice in the league yet though was on course this year.

daithi1989

Pick made and PM sent. My pick is still on the Books at Chelsea, despite being gone on loans for a few years! Just a CB left to get!

Mr.Nice Guy

Anyone else very surprised Walcott lasted that long? I would have thought with his overall body of work at Arsenal he would have went a lot earlier. He was one of the most dangerous players in the league at one point in time. Great value at this stage I reckon.

I actually forgot about him last round. Had him earmarked before. Would have suited my team too. Oh well

brianregan09

with me picking fella's twice before that were already taken I couldn't believe he was still available

martyos121

Not gonna lie, I completely forgot about Jota. That’s a top pick this late in the game Liam O.

Jota is definitely a hell of a pick for round ten.

I have a shortlist of five goalkeepers, all of whom I'd be delira with. If my sums are right, three keepers will be gone before my turn.

redzerdrog

Has Kepa been picked yet? I can't see if he has
