My team is a who's who of who will be playing for Barca and Madrid... In 2016.

My team, well I don't actually have one yet!

I have 9 players

When will the second draft be occuring Mr Hero?

Probably Tuesday.

I know a couple of people don't appear over the weekend so we can't sort out all the players who had joint bids until Monday.

Ok I will send it to you on Tuesday then

Morning

James, will put up his squad when we are back from footy this evening

should we send the join bids as well then to you hero in the second draft

I'd presume send the joint bids when you decide on them.

Are you sure? I will if that's allowed thank you

Bull, how much do you want Kehl? I've got two other potential targets to replace him so let me know asap

Kehl?

im willing to take him if you and sodhat dont want him

I'm going to be submitting a second bid for him.

Got my second round draft sorted. Not exactly dependent on these players, but it would be superb to get them all.

Me too. Except I am extremely dependent on the players

New name. Genius if you ask me.

What's the rules on nationalities starting in the games, if anything?

I won't be bidding on kehl again, got a better target...

Having said that I should probably focus on getting a goalkeeper!

I have sent Hero my rebids for Verratti and Barnetta.

No nationality rule on starting XI, just so many in your squad. I think it might be an idea to have a rule for cup teams though, say minimum of 3 domestics and 3 U21s

I bought loads of Germans thinking I had to be starting some of them

I'd favour having three Germans and 3 U21s in the league actually

I think the rule of needing 6 in your squad is good, but My opinion is u21 restriction just for the cup.

I'm open either way to needing 3 domestics in the league

You should be able to pick whoever you want for league games, maybe 1 National and 1 U21 at a push.

Can we send are draft 2 to you now hero or wait till tuesday?

Bull, we have to wait until the tied first bids are sorted.

so we send the tied bids first?

Yes. Send your new bid for any that we're tied in the first draft. Once that had been sorted, then draft 2

Since Olly has pulled out of the running for Cudicini can I just confirm him for the base limit?

Yes that's fine, unless you wish to raise your bid for some odd reason.

My team is currently 14 strong and has 2 players over the age of 21 and two that aren't Spanish

Think I went a little OTT on ensuring I had the Spanish youth team!

Thank you I'd pay miwwions for Cudicini! It was a sad day when he left Chelsea!

Not sure I agree with this. I could have picked 6 500k Germans just to make the quota, and a starting 11 of much better players. There has to be a nationality rule for starting XI, otherwise it was pointless to have it as a rule.

I vote for all eleven being of your nationality and under 21.
I might win then.

Rubbish. You can't have 6 domestics and it not have an impact on your team. That's a quarter of your squad if you have the max.

But regardless, I am in favour of a nationality rule, but it wasn't stated before the first draft, so you can't just introduce it afterwards. Managers may well have done what you say, but there was no rule, so why not. They were playing within the rules and then suddenly we move the goalposts after they have started building there squad

This is what I would do, but let's make a call on it before second draft

Its not rubbish at all. Pick 6 German and U21 players for 500k each. That's the quota sorted. Now I can pick any players I want with 97m and am not restricted on age and nationality. I am not saying this is the correct thing to do, but I do see it as an advantage.

I think 3 of your nation in the starting XI and also 3 U21's in the Cup. Makes sense

Looking at everyone's squads so far they have all apart from Olly really gone for the nationality element so most would have no issue in playing 3 from that country in a starting eleven.

My starting x1 has at least 6 Spaniards...

Mine has ten!

mine has at least 3 germans at the mo who will start

Ba can leave newcastle for £7 million in Jan... Wonder if Chelsea will go in for him

Naah Olly will have bought him back before then and have put the curse on him once more.

I got some big points for the fantasy league.....Mata and Torres score. And Stoke get a clean sheet bonus so thats big points for all of my defenders

Vertonghen, Aguero both score for me so far.

whens the results of the tied bids?

When everyone who needs to rebid has rebid.

Just noticed the League A and League B sections, considering Season 3 was cut short shouldn't we just stick to the current Premier League and Championship placings?

No they've been redrawn so that we have two clubs from each country in each league.

some teams arnt named after citys do they need to change?

Mine is

I think as long as they have a German, Italian, Spanish, English theme, should be okay

I agree. I've already text Russell suggesting Footlong Frankfurter FC
