Good thread this.

For those who are interested I'm currently putting the finishing touches to the 5th Bohs FF Comp...it should go live in the next day or two (€750 first prize this season).

CSF

I may also be doing one for Shels. League of Ireland Invasion

FHFC

There's a Harps one as well but I was reluctant to tell any of ye feckers as I came third last year and was hoping to improve on that.

Somehow I don't think getting a load of more experienced expert players on board helps my chances much!!

S'all about the club, couldn't care less if I win that one as long as the club makes a bucketload.

LA were poo but Herrera was brilliant and had a couple of assists. lvg said he will be playing mainly 3 at the back this year.........Valencia and shaw were the wing backs/wingers that started tonight. Shaw at 6 ml will be worth a look if he is a wing bsvk

Yeah, that was the big news of the night. Would make Shaw and Rooney more valuable if they were guaranteed to be playing further up the pitch.

Im assuming RVP didn't play? I would love if Rooney started the season, would save me a decent chunk of change to trade down

Rooney has me thinking too BUT if rvp gets back to form he is worth 2ml more and will be on pens

Liverpool 0 - 1 Roma

Lost out through a late goal by Roma.

Didn't see the match but apparently Emre Can played well and showed potential!

Can played well. Skrtl had a good game also. Lambert showed some decent touches. And the winning goal went in off Agger's arse. Take from that what you will

Will be keeping an eye on Can and Lovren (if he makes the move to Liverpool) but it depends on how our defense holds up this season compared to last. Can't see Lambert featuring in my team at all, or Remy (on the basis he moves to Liverpool, could be decent for QPR), Liverpool need someone a little more prolific at banging them in to keep challenging.

Seeing al sorts of names bandied around this morning, transfer rumours would break your heart though!

Nuts102

Lads where does Can play people seem to be raving about him last night.

From the United game a few interesting points.

LVG said he will play 3-4-3 so Shaw looks tempting as a fb and so does Rafael. Also Rooney should play up front.

He's a midfielder but can play at the back too, not sure where he played exactly last night though as he came on for Borini. Out wide possibly
