I had bororob in 6th and CV in 9th. Dan in 10th. My top 3 were Gal P, Lone Ranger and Scotty. KK for defence Jameslfc for midfield Lone Ranger for attack (Yorke and Cole proven quality FACT) Saint Shane for balance
Well done borobob for the overall win and KK, Cotterill:49 and Joga Bonito for the other categories. I'm happy with my best balance win, with a mammoth 15 points, over distant 2nd place KK with a measly 14 points , and atleast I made the top 10 overall aswell. A big well done to Joga for this awesome thread, probably the best thread i've seen during my time on here, I will post my votes later.

I think my top 3 was 1 - Borobob 2- CeilingV 3 - Gal_P Can't quite remember and can't see my sent items unfortunately (is that normal?). Fantastic thread though - thanks for setting it up and moderating it Joga! I'll be up for another draft at the beginning of December onwards...! Congrats to all the winners. Quality thread. Special mention to my fellow Chelsea lads Gal_P and Dan for producing quality teams even though they were low down in the order.
Yeah I can't see my sent items either. I'm fairly sure my top voted was borobob and I think I gave Shane, Ollie and Gal_P good points too.

We have to point out of course that Borobob was in prime position to win this because he had 2nd pick and the first guy didn't choose Thierry Henry. Take Thierry Henry out of that side and although its a good team it probably wouldn't win.
Well at the same time, his second pick was Robbie Fowler when Dan was able to choose Zola and Cantona for being last which I guess is a large part of his success in the draft. Henry is the best imo, but he's not head and shoulders above everyone else and it is debatable. Ollie finished 8th with Bergkamp, Joga finished 4th with Shearer.
Here's my votes guys, I do apologize to those who didn't get any of my votes, but I just went with my honest opinion. 8 of the top 10 were in my top 10 and it would have been 9 if you take me out. Everyone in the top 5 were the top 5 in my vote aswell. We should do a public vote, where we are not allowed to vote, and see what the rest of the forum think?

How a team with Zola, Cantona and Hazard can be the best balanced, I don't know... Zola, Cantona and Ballack all arguably out of position.... Dans strongest area is his fullbacks imo....
