Fantasy Premier League 18/19

It's launched already.

@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

Done, should be working.

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.

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.

any interest in a money league this year? £20 each or something, if that is allowed?

Who looks after the money, clearly should be a non United fan .

Wow, that was soon.

I guess the early tactic has to be to just put in Kane and Salah and go from there.

Not sure on Salah at 13m

Think I’ll avoid for now

has anyone been 13m before?

Kane last season. Suarez. Ronaldo was 14.

lol I need to pay more attention

My Essien calculator tells me it's possible to have Lukaku, Salah, Kane, Eriksen and Pogba with 4,5s all over the pitch.

There’s already a Caf league that’s been running for the last few years.

There is a code that you need to join. Let me search and pm it to you

Edit: Pm’d you the code

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.

The question was 13m, not 14m.

My bad, I missed the full stop next to Suarez.

Back when picking a captain was the least of your worries, now it's the complete opposite.

Are we doing the draft again?

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

Not a single player from City either though and an over-reliance on the Liverpool attack.

I want Auba but I don't fancy Arsenals opening fixtures at all.

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!

Hardly a shock. He's a centre midfielder after all.

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.

I thought I was in this league last year but can't find it. Could I get a pm of the code please!

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!

Could you please tell me the code too @Indnyc
