It's launched already. https://fantasy.premierleague.com/ @Levo could you reactivate the league? Classic league code can be found here: http://www.redcafe.net/threads/the-random-chat-thread.363091/page-1959#post-22773822 H2H league code: 2543617-680147
Salah or no Salah will be the big question. 13m seems a bit too much especially when Mane and Firmino are 9.5.
Has started again today. Create your team here - https://fantasy.premierleague.com/ Guidance on the rules is available here - https://fantasy.premierleague.com/a/help I’ll update the OP again with details on the Caf league once @Levo confirms it’s back up and running. @Damien - can you sticky this and unsticky last years please? Thanks.
Anybody doing a Caf League? I’ve never done fantasy footy before, so if there is a Caf one, I’d rather join it than a random one.
Wow, that was soon. I guess the early tactic has to be to just put in Kane and Salah and go from there.
My Essien calculator tells me it's possible to have Lukaku, Salah, Kane, Eriksen and Pogba with 4,5s all over the pitch.
Feck that. Ruins the rest of your team. I've gone for this so far Fabianski Maguire Moses Douglas Sane Eriksen Fernandinho Cairney Kane Firmino Auba Will no doubt change but my thinking was I'd rather have that front 3 than just Kane and Salah then low scorers. Not sure about Fernandinho but he scored pretty decently last season. Dunno if Sane is a rotation risk either.
Suarez has never been £14m, he was £13m when Liverpool nearly won the league RVP, Henry and Ronaldo remain the most expensive FPL players ever at £14m each.
Knocked up a quick placeholder side this morning De Gea - Speroni Mendy - TAA - Coleman - Tarkowski - Schelotto Salah - D Silva - Eriksen - Jota - Cairney Firmino - Zaha - Calvert Lewin
Not a single United player in my XI Got some spare change to switch Aubameyang out for Kane come September
Yeah I know, just didn't fancy any of the City players I tend to give up on FF after the first few weeks these days anyway
Neves is apparently a poor fantasy option. Read a ridiculous stat that he had more goals from outside the box last season than touches inside it! Not sure if that’s true as sounds incredible, but gives an indication of the type of player he is (more likely to assist the assister).
I've never found the time to play this since I got a job, but was playing this every season from the 2005-06 season before that (I remember telling my friends to pick Darren Bent from Charlton that season, what a signing he was for me ). Will try to create a team this season!
He’s currently the third most selected midfielder in the game - so I think there is some misunderstanding around how effective he is as an FPL player.
Oh wow. Yeah definitely. There's literally no point getting that type of center midfielders. He seems a bit more deep lying/box to box rather than the attacking midfielder. He's got a good shot on him so maybe that's why.
Yep, 100% that’s the reason imo. He scored some rockets last year and he looks an exceptional player - but as we know the great deeplying playmakers don’t always (or ever) translate to being good fantasy assets!
