To speed up the process even more I am going to do the posts by positions. First up is the starting Defenders or at least those who played a lot of minutes. Just vote for who you would protect in the comments (Don't worry about the No vote).
Check out the other posts here.
How it works
- Vote by posting a Yes (to Protect) or No (don't Protect) in the subject of a comment, then explain why in the message
- We (the editors) will keep track of all the yes/no votes for each player
- At the end of the whole roster we will total up the results and post the community's Protected list
- Your list will be compared to the list of each contributing editor
- The only player we will not be voting on is Darlington Nagbe as he is automatically protected based on his Generations Adidas Status.
