    I have only one rule when selecting my team: no Spurs players ever. I have stuck to it for the last 3-4 seasons, don't care how well they do or that I might miss points, I just can't do it - even more so now with who their manager is. . .:D

    I wish I was as steadfast as you in that :(

    Doherty is too tempting though

    To be fair to Wenger, his purse strings were under lock and key.

    A Delboy Levy comparison is more fitting. Never spends anything and when he does its usually a dud.

    I think you can see how many transfers a player makes a week and software can calculate the most likely transfers made and stuff but I dont think you can see the actual transfers people have made until the GW starts

    Balls - the changes I made for my subs and captains after I made my team never saved!!! That means I currently have 7 points sitting on my bench for Aubameyang!!

    No, listen to this: I didn't have any of the Liverpool players and then I thought I will bring one of them and who did I pick? Mane. . .

    Disaster of a week, I will be lucky to get to 30 points the way things go.

    Was between Salah and Mane, who do you reckon I ended up picking....as well, roll on next week.

    I do have Van Dyke though.

    I must have swapped Mo out for Mane at some stage during my tinkering.

    Ah I just have Mane also, was between which one to pick in the team. Was always going to captain whichever I picked and went with the wrong one.

    Only someone like Strawbs could afford both :)

    Can you sell and buy players every week?

    Yep. You get one for free each week and if you want to do more than one transfer you pay for it with some of the points you got from the previous match day

    I ain’t giving back my hard earned points so I’ll stick with the freebie.

    Another thing that you need to know strawbs is that you are allowed to save one transfer without losing it.
    For example if for week 2 you are happy with your team, you can keep your transfer and then in week 3 you will be allowed 2 free transfers.

    Also if you feel your team is beyond saving, you can activate your wild card and change the whole thing without spending your points. You get 1 wildcard for the first half of the season and another for the second half of the season.

    Or if you share your login details, someone can make a transfer on your behalf.
