If the Premier League had a US Style draft...

Who would be the top 10 picks?

Please choose yours, quite an interesting subject I think

What, drafting from our Uni's?

No drafting from the players in the league already Stella haha.

Not exactly US like

Aah.

Grant Holt, second pick for Utd?

Haha he's too good for them

What I mean is who would go Top 10 overall?

It's quite hard actually haha

As in who are the best 10 players in the Premier League? Or if you had to provide the base for a team who would you pick?

Right let me sort this out:

Norwich - 10th
QPR - 9th
Reading - 8th
Swansea - 7th
Newcastle - 6th
Aston Villa - 5th
Fulham - 4th
Chelsea - 3rd
West Brom - 2nd
Sunderland - 1st

That's the draft order. Who would each team pick. They have the choice of any player in the league

Different teams, different needs.

Sunderland - A right winger?

No no no they start with a clean slate

They have no players

Sunderland: Robin Van Persie
West Brom: Gareth Bale
Chelsea: Luis Suarez
Fulham: Juan Mata
Aston Villa: Vincent Kompany
Newcastle: Eden Hazard
Swansea: David Silva
Reading: Yaya Toure
QPR: Sergio Aguero
Norwich: Jan Vertonghen

What have you been smoking? Suarez ahead of Mata? Go slap yourself now.

Other than that spot on.

How about we use the Football League as the NCAA and the Championship would be Division 1 etc. Then have Prem teams draft for their current needs. Then it'd be interesting to see who thinks who would take who.

I'll sort it out for another thread at some point dude! Sort of liking drafting from the lower leagues, I like it

Yeah and the top picks would be players like Ince, Zaha, Bolasie, etc.
