ooo excited, potentially under a day until I get my next two picks - and they are still available, problem is I have 3 players I want so I have to choose which one to risk

I'm in exactly the same position - three players that I really want to add to my squad, but also the knowledge that if I manage to secure two of them this time around it's unlikely that I'll get the third.

My next pick is a central defender who is known for his versatility, he has filled every position across the back-four and in midfield and he once even donned the gloves to replace Edwin van der Sar in a Premier League fixture at Tottenham following a nose injury sustained by the Dutch goalkeeper.

He may not be one of the biggest names in premier League history, but Sir Alex Ferguson has trumpeted the claims of him as Footballer of the Year in the past, and he definitely has the medal haul to show that he is one of the best.

His honours include:
Manchester United
Premier League (5): 2002–03, 2006–07, 2007–08, 2008–09, 2010–11
FA Cup: 2003–04
Football League Cup (3): 2005–06, 2008–09 2009–10
FA Community Shield (4): 2003, 2007, 2008, 2010
UEFA Champions League: 2007–08
FIFA Club World Cup: 2008

He is

My next pick fills one of the very hard categories (and a few others in case) and also one of the tricky full back slots - I give you CHRISTIAN ZIEGE

There are still catch up picks from [MENTION=14929]Max Paper[/MENTION] (4) and from [MENTION=1284]moggy[/MENTION] who needs to pick again as the player chosen had already gone.

What's the score on negotiation with someone to swap picks? I'm willing to swap my next two picks for someone who's got one coming up...... Is this allowed because I have an utter blinder and am willing to do that to secure him!!!!!

Sadly not allowed, you'll just have to wait and hope he doesn't go before it reaches you (and then swear and curse like the rest of us when that choice gets picked by someone else before you get the chance)

That's not something that happened on previous drafts. Wouldn't that just muddy the waters and make the order more confusing, when we've already got people missing their pick and having to catch up, or picking someone that's already been taken and having to redraft

Not that it's up to me, but I don't think we should start getting into things like that.

Shame. I know he's going to go before he gets to me. I just know it. That said I thought that about others, but at this stage the one I've thought of is GOING to be picked :(
