It's okay, I'm nearly done putting it in spoilers on here.

by **Hero** Fri 12 Feb 2016, 10:14 am

No 16 is the lowest I've picked (we are still talking about the manager draft aren't we?).

by GSC Fri 12 Feb 2016, 10:17 am

We are. Viva may get the wrong idea though

Nice work Marky

by Holymiky Fri 12 Feb 2016, 10:30 am

Thanks Marky, one player wow :O

by Azzy Fri 12 Feb 2016, 10:31 am

I am over the moon with that. Got my three top players plus Kane. Shame I lost out on Butland but I can live with that Smile

by Holymiky Fri 12 Feb 2016, 10:32 am

Thiago

by Marky Fri 12 Feb 2016, 10:32 am

Love my midfield trio and striker, just need some wingers;

M.Suarez - Cazorla
RW - Mahrez - LW
Lewandowski

by GSC Fri 12 Feb 2016, 10:32 am

Azzy won this draft

by Holymiky Fri 12 Feb 2016, 10:35 am

What about:

--------Verrati---Herrera--
-------------Thiago---------
Narsingh---Aduriz---Nolito

by Azzy Fri 12 Feb 2016, 10:36 am

Guys what happened to the £500k minimum rule? I'd have had one or two to flesh my squad out if I'd known you were going to cheat.

BamBam and I need to PM our new bid for Sagna to someone (Miky?).
Trebs and I need to PM our new bids for Morgan and Fuchs to BamBam.
BamBam and Nando need to PM their new bid for Campbell to me.
BamBam and Trebs need to PM their new bid for Valbuena to me.
Nadeem and Trebs need to PM their new bid for Huth to me.
Hero and Trebs need to PM their new bid for Iheanacho to me.

Excellent work Marky.

Gutted I've lost out on Mahrez.

I really like Tah, he would have been on my list but wasn't too sure what reception he'd get on here.

There was never any mention of this rule. It was even hinted at before the draft that you could sign a few expensive players then add a load of freebies.

by nadeem2099 Fri 12 Feb 2016, 10:39 am

Frak sake Bellerin and Kante were my 3rd and 4th expensive targets I thought I was gonna get them Laugh

by Holymiky Fri 12 Feb 2016, 10:40 am

PM away.

I think we could of signed Messi Azzy and just filled the squad out with freebies if we wanted to, don't remember there being a rule against it in the draft.

by **Hero** Fri 12 Feb 2016, 10:41 am

Sane/Coman---Dybala---Barbosa

And the other half are good enough to beat your entire squad on their own Whistle

Delighted with my core - Horn / Alderweireld / Digne / Alli / Loftus-Cheek / Ibe / Kane - just really gutted I didn't snaffle Butland too. He's great value even at £7.75m.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Fri 12 Feb 2016, 10:43 am

Man that went badly - lost out on Fonte, Kante, Alli, Deulofeu and Ighalo who I had down as starters Laugh

by FIFA Diva Fri 12 Feb 2016, 10:46 am

Glad to have got Motta, £3m for a top 3 DM is a joke.

by Azzy Fri 12 Feb 2016, 10:47 am

I assumed we'd use the long-extant £500k minimum TM rule. Shows just how two-faced managers in this league are #AzzyTheHonest

by Fernando Fri 12 Feb 2016, 10:57 am

Bam you can have Joel Ok!

obviously still have to bid so put 6m again if you put 6.1m he's yours.

by **Hero** Fri 12 Feb 2016, 11:04 am

Gutted to have lost out on Ginter as RB is a real trouble position currently. Do have a decent replacement though lined up.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Fri 12 Feb 2016, 11:05 am

Excellent work marky

When is the deadline for rebids? Also could you possibly email the spreadsheet to those rebidding so we don't waster your time rebidding on players already in da league

by BamBam Fri 12 Feb 2016, 11:07 am

Well I'm Frak

Viva we're going to fall out

I'll post a list of all the players in the league in a separate thread once the rebids for tied bids are done.

by Holymiky Fri 12 Feb 2016, 11:14 am

Pm me your rebid for Sagna BamBam Smile

That rule was only valid from 2010-2015.

by BamBam Fri 12 Feb 2016, 11:16 am

Will do, just got to work so just having a think about how much

by Holymiky Fri 12 Feb 2016, 11:17 am

That's fine was just saying it in case you didn't see it before buddy.

by BamBam Fri 12 Feb 2016, 11:30 am

Cheers pal

Thoughts on Ginter .. better at right back or centre back? Better with him at RB and another CB, or him at CB and bid against Marky for Sagna?

I reckon Ginter at RB and leave Sagna to me Cool

by BamBam Fri 12 Feb 2016, 12:09 pm

Haha .. what happens now? Get rebids in and settled before sending in 2nd round bids?

by Marky Fri 12 Feb 2016, 12:13 pm

BamBam wrote:Haha .. what happens now? Get rebids in and settled before sending in 2nd round bids?

Basically yeah.

Need you, Hero and Trebs to send their rebids.

by nadeem2099 Fri 12 Feb 2016, 12:16 pm

All I need now is a RB, a CM and an AM. How much budget have I got left marky not including the Huth rebid?

by BamBam Fri 12 Feb 2016, 12:17 pm

That would tell everyone how much you bid for Huth ..

I'd also say better at RB, he's excelled there this year.

I've PM'ed you

by BamBam Fri 12 Feb 2016, 12:23 pm

Rebids in to Miky and Marky

Thinking about it, seeing as I need to buy 13 players with 53m, you'll outbid me anyway!

If I win my bids I've still got 6 players to buy on a much smaller budget!

by Marky Fri 12 Feb 2016, 12:30 pm

Bam, how much did you bid for Sagna? Seeing as we've both PM'ed Miky for proof.

by **Hero** Fri 12 Feb 2016, 12:35 pm

So which players that everyone got did they go BIG on?
My two were Sanches who's currently 600k on TM yet I bid £5m on as he's linked heavily with Utd, Real and Bayern in a big money deal & Sane who I went £4.1m extra on because he's the best young player in the Bundesliga this year.

by BamBam Fri 12 Feb 2016, 12:35 pm

5.5m for Sagna Marky

Probably only Ighalo - 5m over his TM value
