In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
Prices don't change based on transfers.
They only change once the game has started based on amount of people transferring them in.
Also, if you have 3 of one team, and a player you have transfers to them, you can have four from that team.
However, your next transfer has to be one of that team's players.
Prices will stay the same. I wouldn’t be as interested in Grealish if he went to city, the rotation is a killer. He’s more valuable starting pretty much every game for villa.
Price doesn't change until the season begins and then only goes up/down incrementally depending on how many people transfer said player in/out.
If they pay 100m for him, I think he'd be a main man, albeit he will eventually get subbed to ease him in
Everyone blames you for him going to City.
Is there a new CAF league or is the old one being used again?
Still no price for Sancho?
My only caveat is that he may not hit the ground running. Might take him half a season to get going.
Where are the H2H leagues?

Where are the H2H leagues?
I know about that. I'm sure it could be made to work though, just need to know who would be interested.
Sancho's transfer hasn't been completed I think, and only Classic leagues are renewable.
It's threadmarked
Where to begin? Ive picked Martinez and thats it 
Well get rid of him immediately.Where to begin? Ive picked Martinez and thats it
After the opening 3 fixtures, he goes to rektville for like the next 5.
I think Villa massively outperformed their xGC last season and Martinez obviously played a part in that but you would assume some normality will resume this season. Just look at their run towards the end of last season, they conceded a lot. If Grealish stays, maybe they won't concede as much but that's a big if.
Martinez is always good for saves and gets some bonuses but 5.5 for a keeper that isn't Ederson is not good value in my opinion.
You want to either get a 4.5 (like Sanchez) or max 5.0 (Meslier/Schmeichel/Pickford). Above that amount and you should seriously consider Ederson.
Just my opinion though.
Martinez Foster
Shaw Digne Coufal Fofana Lamptey
Salah Bruno Trossard Raphinha Buendia
Iheanacho Watkins Toney
I quite like those 6.5m midfielders and 7.5m forwards. Salah and Bruno are super boring but needed unfortunately. When Sancho hits the market I will consider him as I reckon he may be getting some great numbers. I could always move 6.5m midfielder into a 4.5m midfielder and open up funds to improve. I'm going to need to put in some fodder in there anyway as going 14 deep is always a headache, though I need at least one strong bench option + almost pointless to go for 4.0m defenders when 4.5m ones are super promising. I'm inclined to swap Martinez for a 5.0 too (not Sanchez because I already have Lamptey, mostly for offensive returns, covering Brighton's defence).
Pepe will be a good option I think. Also Abraham if he moves to West Ham or Brighton (not so much if he goes to Villa).

Well that pissed on Footygirl's chips?
Do you reckon Bruno is a must have next season? He's so expensive and given his Euros and how he finished last season I'm not 100% convinced he'll hit the ground running. Also, if we do change system, is there a risk that he becomes a little less productive?
Defintely one to keep an eye on with regards to the system affecting his points yeah but seems a big risk to not have hime from the get go. Would love to be able to leave him out personally as it just frees up the funds to do so much elsewere but I probably won't come GW1.
My 2 favourite drafts so far are....
Sanchez (Steele)
Shaw TAA Tierney Digne (Ayling)
Salah Bruno Sarr (Harrison) (Brownhill)
Antonio Watkins Nacho
and the non Bruno slightly risky/more fun/differential one...
Sanchez (Steele)
Shaw TAA Chilwell Digne (Ayling)
Salah Havertz Pepe (Harrison) (Brownhill)
Antonio Cavani Watkins
Im going to win
I think having a 6m player on the bench is too much, in the top team you could take Harrison out for a 4.5m midfielder, then upgrade Sarr.
In the bottom team only having 1 out of Salah, Bruno, KDB & Kane is very brave
His penalties are worth a lot and he's a BPS machine but at 12.0m I am not entirely convinced to be honest. If Sancho is 9.5m I may go for him instead to cover United's offensive output and invest more elsewhere.
I am also quite convinced I want all my 6.5m midfielders at least to start season with. I think at least 1 of them will be a hit. Trossard could be big this season if they can get a productive forward. Havertz is interesting as well. I wish I could have 7 midifelders and 1 forward.

Currently sat on a team of:
Sanchez - (Steele)
Robertson - Shaw - Coufal - (White) - (Manquillo)
Salah - Fernandes - Havertz - Harrison - (Gilmour)
Calvert Lewin - Watkins - Toney
Definitely going to change before the start of the season, may replace Havertz & possibly switch the strikers round a bit as there are so many options this year.

I know what you mean. I'll probably end up bottling it and sticking him in. I like both those teams above. Was considering Pepe as an outsider punt but decided against it in the end.
Yeah, agreed. I will definitely have an eye on Sancho's price and I also think mason looks good value too. Particularly if Rashford gets the op. I know exactly what you mean re midfielders Vs forwards. Gone are the days of Aguero, Kane +1.
So far I have:
Henderson
TAA. White. Shaw. Fofana
Havertz. Salah. Greenwood. Mount
Nacho. Watkins.
Bench: Sanchez, Toney, Raph, Ayling
Auba can suck it this year. Not making that mistake again..
I'll almost certainly get sucked in when he comes in against Norwich or whoever and bangs in four, before reverting to bench/shite. I just can't resist a differential.
Can those posters that showed up the second the season ended to casually mention their top 1k finishes actually help us out this year?
I remember them. Seeing us stress all year and just laughing at us.Can those posters that showed up the second the season ended to casually mention their top 1k finishes actually help us out this year?
So I think Everton got a great run of games for the first 10. Who is the best long term pick do you think? Pickford? Digne? DCL? someone else?
Nay for Pickford. His shotstopping means he will never be that good for a 5.0m. Digne always comes across as a fantastic asset on paper, but rarely lives up to expectations. Never been convinced by DCL.
I finished in the top 1k once, it was before anyone gave a shit and you didn't have to make an effortCan those posters that showed up the second the season ended to casually mention their top 1k finishes actually help us out this year?
so tldr don't ask me
Oh yeah, I forgot to say I came top 100 in the world.Can those posters that showed up the second the season ended to casually mention their top 1k finishes actually help us out this year?
I can't attach a screenshot though, you'll just have to take my word for it.
Was hilarious how many came out the woodworkCan those posters that showed up the second the season ended to casually mention their top 1k finishes actually help us out this year?
I finished 3.5k but I think I provided my fair share of advice
Sanchez is also not great for shotstopping, but decent still for 4.5.
What do we make of the medium value gang with high potential for top teams in midfield?
Foden, Mahrez from City, Jota from Liverpool, Greenwood, Rashford and maybe Sancho from us, Mount, Havertz, Pulisic, Ziyech from Chelsea.
Who will get most minutes? Who is most explosive and worth the risk.
I think Greenwood and Jota could be worth it as cheaper alternatives for Bruno and Salah, but as captains they are not enough. Rotation high chance, but may start the first 3 potentially before CL starts.
Mahrez I think is maybe the best City captain over KDB if he keeps pens and score from them, but KDBs nailedness makes him better I think unless we somehow know Mahrez will play. Unless Kane comes then he becomes the guy to get.
Havertz the best captain from Chelsea, but the others can be worth it potentially when Chelsea have good games. Rotation can kill us though.

My current lineup is dependent on Grealish staying at Villa. If he leaves, I think making the squad would be comparatively easier
Its the rotation that's the issue? All good players.
Apart from Foden, little tart.
Any ideas? So with Rashford out for sometime that should make Greenwood more likely to play right?. Jota could start the season too given that Firmino played longer for national side.
City and Chelsea rotation is annoying, but at the end of last season Havertz and Mahrez was star players in CL. Thus you think they will be key in the league early on now too?
If City buys Kane it changes I think then I probably go with him.
I had Greenwood but I dropped him after Sunday. If it’s going to take him a few months to get going again I’d rather be watching than investing even though he’s obviously still really interesting, especially if he’s playing some games as a striker.
Downgrading him to a 6- 6.5 let’s me get another 6 in instead of dm fodder. Trincao, Gill, Sarr, Olise are all quite interesting.
I'll be honest, I haven't sat down and looked at FF yet.
Workload (8-5), sun/garden (5-9) and run (9-10) taking up entire day.
I'll be looking after this week. Also have my asst (@Sandikan ) to help... hopefully does a better job than the Euros FF.
(I like Greenwood tho)
Aaah how did Greenwood looked. Missed the game. Been out to travel with friends a bit.
I think it is first friendly so should not judge too much. We have more friendlies to see.
Man you are busy. It is long time to go.
Following pre season do not gain a lot. Form normally change. The key is just knowing who starts. Which can be tricky with the 4 best teams that we want players from.
