I asked them at HQ in email and they failed to answer!Happy with that. Mostly as i always use it badly
So no free hit chip - have they got anything else in place of it?

Yep, that squad to me is epic fail.Trouble is 3/4 of your bench is unlikely to play which means you have to play Torreira and Hojberg every week, who even with a good fixture, are very likely to score you sweet fa.
I thought someone a page or so back said it IS still included. Just you can't use it week one. For clear reasons. So no panicI asked them at HQ in email and they failed to answer!

No Liverpool full backs? *hashtag brave pills*Hmmm, Augero, Kane, Salah and Sterling are no longer possible unless you have one 5.5m defender or midfielder and the rest 4.5m...
EDIT you can squeeze some more out of the 3rd forward position (had a 6.5m striker)

It's like an automatic thing, like my team shows back in Red Cafe.Why can I not renew last season's league's?

The aim of the game is to make your points of your defense and Midfield.Haha, you spend all your money then realise you got none for strikers?
No, good to have you on board there. It's the Twitter Premier League simply because originally just me and a few Twitter mates started up and the same folk have been coming back each year. I'm not sure my own team has ever made the top ten! So maybe this year eh...Hope you don't mind but I have joined ... Got no idea how to use Twitter so i'm not on there but in it for the banter.

Link to the code in the OP. It's in the general so that non-members can't join.Still no league code?
This year's edition is certainly the most difficult with value for money. Maybe it's just me but I can't produce a strong, balanced team out there, especially if you want 5 marquee players or so in. Last year was easy as they come in that respect. I think the prices will change when the season starts, maybe for the better.I've been playing six or more seasons now and reckon that the game is seriously flawed now because the budget has remained at 100m for a decade as far as I can tell, yet the prices just continue to rise.
Okay, on the reverse side, forwards like Lukaku and Rashford are the same value and on the cheap side but you'd plump for other big-budget forwards than them I'd wager.
At a pinch, you could muster a side with three marquee midfielders or two plus Aubameyang / Kane / Aguero etc but the rest of the squad pans out around 5.5-6m.
Wouldn't be so bad if these increases were on the small and sensible size but Mane is hiked by 2m along with other key players... what do others think?
They should increase the budget? This is like being at work with no pay increase for ten years!

Update.Thoughts guys?

Dont chase points, which is the biggest mistake people make. If Delofeu scores a hat-trick, doesn't mean you should drop whoever and bring him in for the next week.Also, on a separate note
I'm fecking sick of doing shite at this game. Can someone who's pretty decent at it give me a breakdown of how your supposed to play this fecking thing across a whole season? Is there 1 way that works consistently or is it just luck? Just wanna understand it better so I can enjoy it a bit more
Mostly skill with a little luck (captain choices a big part).Also, on a separate note

Better yeah but I still wouldn't want to be playing Hojbjerg every week. Are we sure Gomes is first choice over Matip? They'd be my two main areas of concern with that side.Update.

I think he'll be their starter but gonna see how the first few games go before moving it around. Hojbjerg will be moved on when the cheaper decent options make themselves known. Sure after 5-10 games we'll know of some bargainsBetter yeah but I still wouldn't want to be playing Hojbjerg every week. Are we sure Gomes is first choice over Matip?

I don't think there's any real science to it. You can look at stats until you're blue in the face but in reality what do we know about next season - likely Liverpool and City will contend that title again so the biggest points scorers will come from them (both in defence and attack). So that's 5/6 slots taken already. Then look at who has a decent fixture run early doors - Everton & Bournemouth for example both do and they have some decent options at mid prices. Don't worry too much about more than the first 5/6 games as by then we'll know who looks good and where the bargains are. A lot of good players will use their first wildcard around then to get the squad they want. You might not need to but it's usually a sound tactic.
A few other tips - don't have loads of money on the bench. Try to get the the cheapest playing players.
Decide on a set and forget gk or cheap rotating ones before the season starts. Do not do what the guy across the office from me did and select Ederson and Patricio. That's too much money invested in one position and completely unnecessary when in reality, when are you going to bench Ederson for the Wolves #1?
Have at least 2 good captain options. These should be your ultra premium players. Salah, Sterling, Aguero, Kane, Auba all potentially fit into this category.
Avoid United obviously. We're awful.
