Yeah, 24h is more than enough. If he hasn't picked by then we move on.

His profile says he was on at 9.25 this morning.

What’s the deadline for him picking so? I have mine ready to go whenever so I’d want to get it posted ASAP to keep things moving and make up for lost time, and I probably won’t be on here this evening.

GLaDOS

He has until 2.50,then work away

On this, I'm not picking again before you, so if you think your pick will come back around while you're out, feel free to send on your pick to me.

Obviously, if you don't want to, that's fine too!

martyos121

Pick in and PM sent to dr. ken.

Thanks for that Slick, I shouldn’t be gone too long so I don’t imagine it’ll be an issue but I’ll send you on two names just in case, cheers.

Will I make 2 picks or 1 for now?

Modric a great pick, was really hoping to get him.

Make both picks I'd say at this stage, keep it moving along

SlickRic

Should we let H2PB just make two picks whenever he comes back? Or what?

wrestlemaniac

Ye, I think that's fair enough, it keeps things moving.

martyos121

I’ve PM’ed Hello 2D now so hopefully he’ll be back on to make his picks soon.

Is there a stand-in ready to go if he misses the deadline again?

GLaDOS

Brianregan09 said he'd play of anyone drops out

martyos121

Just to be clear, are the standard round picks judged purely on international form or are their club achievements taken into account as well to a lesser or equal extent?

I’m 100% happy with both my picks so far and I would’ve taken both under either criteria, but obviously one works out better than the other.

Thought it was overall career myself

That’s what I had in mind too, but I wasn’t sure as there have been a couple of players I’m surprised weren’t taken yet going by that criteria, so it made me wonder if some are making their picks purely based on international form.

GLaDOS

Overall career, including club form

Bounty Hunter

The player at their prime so in my mind if you think their prime was when in year x you can highlight how good they were with their club that year all you want to show it. Being at the Euros just makes them eligible.

I'd like to think Euros would be taken into account at least. Though I've been at the last 2 I guess so they probably have changed my opinion anyway...

I very much enjoyed seeing Muller taken so early. Stellar career with Germany and has been an assist machine the last 2 seasons with Bayern.
I've 2 players in mind who I think will go later than they should, could be serious acquisitions later on

Sorry people, am I up?

Bounty Hunter

Lukaku is already gone

PHEW!

SlickRic

I fully thought I'd get Bale. Well done Lucas.

Will have my pick up soon.

Bounty Hunter

Was wondering if current Bale / Busquets might mean they would slip through a bit longer. Prime versions of both of them are incredible talents

redzerdrog

Peak bale and excellent pick. Could easily have been a round 1 pick

redzerdrog

Also Slick setting up well to win the midfield battle

Ferris_Bueller

Yeah Bale a brilliant shout, he was the best attacking player left by a distance. Busquets a world class player that sometimes doesn't get the credit he deserves. Are we definitely doing the extra round near the end of players who didn't qualify for the Euros? Will it be from teams who did not qualify or players who weren't selected or both?
