    Ok cool. I can see a circle starting to form.

    You are wrong about Bradley however so we'll leave it at that as they say and let the judging happen at the appropriate time.
    I'm not wrong though, I've seen him enough to know he is worst pick made to this point.

    I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and believe you have a whole host of reasons for sayin that he is the worst pick so far and are merely saving them to launch a full scale attack at the end. You have watched him extensively afterall.

    Citing one half against Slovenia and a tendency to attract yellow cards won't suffice btw.

    I look forward to it.

    i'll put my team here after my next pick.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,579 ✭✭✭✭Frisbee


    God dammit Necro, I curse you.

    I was convinced no-one would go for Marchena and I'd get him as my Round 11 pick.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,092 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    He was my next round option to partner Lucio


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,589 ✭✭✭✭Necronomicon


    Sorry guys :)

    I won't post my formation yet because I've not fully decided where a couple of players will play.

    Excellent progress, chaps. Flying along now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,092 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Indeed, it's getting me excited about my impending next pick.

    If the lad I want goes before that I'll be pretty pissed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,579 ✭✭✭✭Frisbee


    I'll have my pick up soon, I'm caught between two players atm...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,589 ✭✭✭✭Necronomicon


    Just fyi guys, I've updated the spreadsheet again. This time I've added a second sheet for a more simplistic view of proceedings. Anybody with a Gmail account can edit it, so feel free to update as well.

    Toughest choice I've had to make so far probably.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,092 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Phew. He was one of my options if my main guy goes.

    Three before me....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,096 ✭✭✭Mr. Guappa


    Picked and PM'd.

    Probably my toughest choice yet. I had a couple of choices I would have been happy with but in the end I went with Dempsey for his goals, hard work and versatility.

    Kolorov a great shout in my opinion. Was looking for him to shore up my backline. A quality player


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,555 ✭✭✭Gillington


    Aaaarggh maybe I should pay more attention,I was convinced Clint was picked already!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,658 ✭✭✭✭Peyton Manning


    Redzer is coming close to missing his pick...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,418 ✭✭✭curry-muff


    1 hour 59 mins close ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,758 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    we had some real momentum yesterday too.

    it looks like it might be late next week before we complete the teams, unless we get a real move on.

    in general, it's gone along nicely though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,046 ✭✭✭eZe^


    Bradley was absolute quality yesterday for the USA, proved any doubter wrong imo. Real tenacious midfielder, looks a great prospect for the future tbh. Excellent pick Xavi.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,589 ✭✭✭✭Necronomicon


    Excellent progress, chaps. Flying along now.

    Well done, you killed it :pac:

    We should get the teams finished by next week. But I'm going on holidays Saturday week, so I may very well miss the actual ties.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,418 ✭✭✭curry-muff


    Times up! Feel free to pick Xavi ;)

    Pienaar is an excellent pick this late in the draft.
