    Well folks how are we set up? Looking forward to the game again this season? Deadline to have your team entered is 18:30 today - seems a little cruel not to mention that 😉


    What are our aims for this season?

    I settled on:

    TAA, Dunk, Digne,

    Salah (c), Fernandes, Grealish, Sarr,

    Toney, Ings, Antonio.


    Bench: Foster, Ayling, Gilmour, Omobamidele.


    Had a shocker last season ending up 300k odd, so hoping for a more respectable effort this time.

    Made loads of last minute changes and then undid them all 😂. Have had this team for a few days now. Hopefully my (begrudging) faith will be repaid.




  • Registered Users Posts: 20,336 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    Only 2 players different in our teams


    Sanchez

    Taa, shaw, tsimikas

    Salah(c) bruno barnes son

    A.armstrong toney antonio



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,974 ✭✭✭remoteboy


    There’s definitely a template already. Fine margins will decide this gameweek.



  • Registered Users Posts: 22,362 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    Like the Son and Armstrong picks, less templatey than mine! Good luck 👍



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,906 ✭✭✭claw


    Sanchez

    TAA Tsimikas Dias

    Salah(C) Bruno Mount Raphinha

    Ings Toney Antonio

    Subs: Webster White Gilmour

    A couple of late changes with Mount in for Grealish and Ings in for Wilson. Ings ownership and not sure about Grealish starting being the reason for the changes.



  • Registered Users Posts: 828 ✭✭✭SkySter


    Sanchez

    Taa Coufal Tsimikas Shaw

    Fernandes Salah(C) Barnes

    Ings Toney Antonio

    Bench: Foster Raphinha White Brownhill

    Good luck everyone!

    Great to have the footy back!! Only did my first draft last night and I've left it at that. Pretty much template from what I've seen floating around

    Sanchez

    Shaw, Coufal, Tsimikas

    Salah(C), Bruno, Grealish, Raphinha

    Antonio, Ings, Toney

    Bench: Foster, Barnes, White, Veltman



  • Registered Users Posts: 11,194 ✭✭✭✭Father Hernandez


    Am I right in saying we can't see any other teams until points are counted later tonight?

    Sanchez

    TAA, Tsimikas, Shaw, Coufal

    Salah (c), Fernandes, Gundogan

    Ings, Antonio, Toney

    Steele, Raphinha, Gilmour, White

    Will be lots of similar scores this week, but the moves for Kane and/or Lukaku and how players make them will shake things up over the next couple of weeks.

    Sanchez

    TAA Shaw Coufal Digne

    Barnes Greenwood Bruno Salah(c)

    Toney Ings


    Can't remember my bench players, d'oh!

    Hopefully Toney shows up.

    Goodluck all. Bring on the points!



  • Registered Users Posts: 62 ✭✭Ninja Avenger


    Updated quick this year



  • Registered Users Posts: 22,362 ✭✭✭✭extra gravy


    Tried to change Gundo to Greenwood at the last minute, didn't think it went through but it did. Not sure how I feel about it now in hindsight 😬



  • Registered Users Posts: 16,625 ✭✭✭✭dahat


    Great to be back folks & normal kick offs.



  • Registered Users Posts: 7,641 ✭✭✭54and56


    Anyone got codes for any Boards classic leagues? Been hunting them and for the life of me can't find them. The Liverpool league would be great.



  • Registered Users Posts: 36,007 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    Sanchez

    TAA Tsimikas Shaw

    Gundogan Salah Fernandes Raphinha

    Toney Antonio Ings

    Subs: Steele Brownhill Veltman Ait Nouri


    Tsimikas is punty, and won't last more than 4 GWs potentially, but huge upside.

    Toney, Antonio, Ings, Salah, Fernandes are all talismen for their clubs.

    TAA no brainer.

    Shaw is a rank killer not to have.

    Raphinha is underpriced by at least 1m.

    Gundogan is nailed for City and want someone for Norwich.

    0.5itb to help with getting Lukaku when he's needed.

    I'm scared of Barnes, Mahrez, Greenwood and Benrahma. I think they call could bang. But you can't have everyone.

    Bring on the pain.

    I'm terrible at this, but it is good fun.


    Mendy

    Dias Mings Tarkowski

    Ward-Prowse Son Zaha Grealish (c) Buendia

    Toney Vardy (VC)


    Bench Pickford Tierney Bamford Vestergaard

    Best of luck to everyone
