Football Fantasy football gameweek 2 thread

[Ch3tan]

In an attempt to keep people active and not forget to update their squad, I thought it might be a good idea to have a new thread each week.

Remember free transfers for everyone this gameweek to apologise for last weekends login farce.

If anyone has Arsenal defenders they may want to get rid of them sharpish; a few injuries and a big game against a full strength Liverpool this Saturday.

Will everyone have Aguero in their team?

 

[Ch3tan]

Also; Dirk Kuyt, 10million value in game - Will he even play that often this season? I see his value dropping, so may be worth cashing in on him now.

Complete overhaul for me, would've messed up last weekend even if it had not been down. My defense is pants atm, trying to scratch 3 decent players together for 12.5m and realising I should probably cut back up front.

 

[Ch3tan]

3 4million defenders is easy to do right now.... Mayn't be the best, built it's a gamble if you are relying on midfield and forwards to score

S taylor at 4.5 million is a good start...

 

[Cerb]

It seems like a lot of people are going for the Rooney Aguero Suarez front 3. Just seems like 36 mill is too much to spend on one line of your team. Esp since I reckon most points come from midfield anyways. I brought in Long because I was well impressed by him against us.

 

[Sydrik]

Fairly happy now.

 

[Bahumat]

Dropped Hernandez for Rooney as I believe Rooney is a guaranteed start every match even if Hernandez is fit.

 

[megadave]

thanks for the reminder, need to overhaul as well

 

[Urgluf]

can I still sign up for this?

 

[Shagrat]

Yes, you just missed the first weeks scoring, but most people did badly so you won't be far behind.

 

[Aph3x]

I have had a bit of a shuffle around too, mainly in midfield, dropping little Modric and putting Da Silva in, Hernandez goes for Dzeko and I dont care but Im sticking too Gyan and Sessegnon, call it stupid or loyal to my team... probably stupid heh!

58 points at the end of this week, gone flying up the league, Richie De Laet 10 points alone, go on son!

 

[caLLous]

I randomly included Welbeck, glad I did now.

 

[Ch3tan]

Mine flopped - well 48 points, not bad, still 2nd last I looked. Damn Cerb and his squad!!

I have faith in my squad long term though.

 

[caLLous]

You're 2nd, I wouldn't consider that a flop.

 

[Ch3tan]

Considering I've now lost my points advantage, I do.

 

[Vae]

Now I think I can say I've flopped! 2 Awful weeks. But the league is a marathon not a sprint so I still have hope long-term.

This week 35 points with 23 on the bench

Captained Torres as well. He was no good last season and seems to be against me this season as well.

 

[Ch3tan]

torres will come good, I think the games haven't helped these first couple of weeks. Lots of big teams against each other.

edit:// When you look at the spread of strikers likely to get near 20 goals this season, I think winning this year may comedown to midfield and defence.

Rooney, Bent, RvP, Aguero or Tevez or Dzeko (crazy shitty), Suarez, Torres, Drogba, Gyan, Defoe.

 

[Raven]

3rd, not bad.

Shame the head to head seems broken.

 

[Ch3tan]

They've acknowledged the h2h and some other leagues scoring is broken, we'll get the points soon hopefully.
