    The idea is that when you make your first pick, you can also pick ANY player that currently plays for your club.

    Vote whether you want this or not.

    Thanks.

    It's a free pick when you make your first choice.

    For example:

    If I was Arsenal. I would pick Wayne Rooney, and then Fabregas in the same round. This can only be done on your first pick though (assuming those players aren't taken).

    Also, I didn't really have this in mind when picking a team, so a legit complaint can be made there.

    Yeah having the option to sign David Villa or David Silva is legit reason for complaint....

    :wub:

    Because it was a new rule I put it up for vote. I meant to add it earlier just forgot.

    If it passes via the vote then it is in. Fairest way.

    Spain is a good country to pick, anyway.

    Does it mean another person can't pick someone from your squad in the first round?

    You have no players. So they can pick anyone in the world. The "marquee" idea is that you can pick any player who plays for you in real life.

    I voted no. As mentioned previously, there was a lack of notice for some people. Selfishly, I'd go for it as I would get two great picks.

    Silva might not be around that much longer.

    But thanks, I get it now.

    Glad I didn't pick a more obscure team like CA Osasuna.

    I was going to pick St Etienne because like I said, I forgot. Also glad I didn't. :P

    so we all get to pick a marquee player BEFORE the first round of picks begin, is that correct?

    Bafétimbi Gomis is a good striker but they just lost him.

    I think it's in conjunction with the player you pick in the first round, but this might be another option.

    that's what i'm thinking, because it wouldn't be fair for whoever picks first to be able to steal a club's best player from one of us ya know?

    Yeah to Marseille.

    There isn't much you can tell me about footy that I won't already know. :tsktsk:

    Yeah that could be a smarter way of doing things actually.

    Nice idea.

    The vote has passed by the way so feel free to add your marquee players.

    (In the event of a tie, first one to 50% wins the vote because it rewards active players)
