Dr Venkman Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 I've gone for Soldado, his goal record is superb. Also less chance that he's in everyone else's team in my super league. Any team that doesn't have RVP is asking for trouble as always I suppose. Just hoping he either gets injured or Moyes fucks it up at Man Utd. I didn't have RVP last year and I won the company league, how shit must everyone else be Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
leffe186 Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 How much is Soldado? might consider swapping out Aguero and getting a more expensive midfielder. 9.5M. Trying to crowbar him in as we speak. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beren Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 Will Soldado start straight away? Will Negredo/Jovetic? Soldado will without a shadow of a doubt. 2nd one is a little more difficult, can't really say. Nice one, Mole. Haven't followed Spurs' pre-season, and for some funny reason managers can have a habit of not dropping the established stalwart in favour of the new superstar (like with Lloris last season for instance).

Haven't followed Spurs' pre-season, and for some funny reason managers can have a habit of not dropping the established stalwart in favour of the new superstar (like with Lloris last season for instance). That was a very different situation. Lloris signed on Aug 31st, so hadn't had any training with us - and Friedel had already played some games. In addition, it's clear that AVB has consolidated his power base with us, and now has far more influence on incoming transfers. I'm sure Soldado's his man. Just scored a hat-trick in a closed-doors friendly (against a really shit team, tbf), and I fully expect him to play from day one. Worth keeping an eye on our game against Espanol this week to see who plays. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 I'm going to be extremely f*cking pissed off if Defoe or Adebayor start over Soldado now i have made the necessary moves to sneak him into my team Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trumpet Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 http://i40.tinypic.com/n54qhw.png Changed the team. Got rid of Bale, since I think he'll eventually move despite recent news. More focus on scoring, rather than clean sheets. Only doubt is Paulinho for 8M. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trumpet Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 George, is Sturridge doing ok? I heard he's not played during pre-season. Just back in training this week. Apparently looking sharp. Not sure if he'll start vs. Stoke (subject to change), but I fancy him to score quite a fair bit this year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 When Suárez leaves Sturridge should make that CF spot his own and score a load. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trumpet Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 When Suárez leaves Sturridge should make that CF spot his own and score a load. Requires Madrid to come in now. Henry has a history of keeping an unhappy player (with Red Sox), so wouldn't be surprised if he refused to sell even to Madrid. His statement last night, was pretty ruthless (and I didn't see it coming at all). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 Henry sounds like he's in the mood to make Suarez stay for sure. Then it depends on if he can patch things up with Rodgers. Long way to go yet obviously... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 A lot aren't going with RVP, any reason for this? Too expensive. I'd rather get 3 strikers who i think that will get minimum 10 plus in Soldado, Remy and Bony than someone who might get close to 30 and can't afford much else.

For some reason on the Sun Dream Team all the white players seem to be facing to the right and the black players to the left.

Beren Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 Would FF be better or worse if you had to have a certain number of wide/central or left-sided/right-sided players? Probably have a lot more teams with a similar composition I suppose. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably have a lot more teams with a similar composition I suppose. Would make it more intersting.... I also had a thought for one of the leagues Im in.. Maybe we could do it here after this season. Basically if you finish in the bottom half of the league this season, you start off next season in divsion 2...we could have a promotion and relegation battle, the following season. As it gets a bit naff if you just lurking around the bottom with nowt to play for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably have a lot more teams with a similar composition I suppose. Yeah. Think this is a pretty decent format. This is my first go for years. My first was the 90 Minutes magazine one (for the middle-aged out there), and I was doing really well, but stopped because I thought it corrupted me as a supporter - smarmy prick that I was. I've only done a couple since - the best one was some time around 2000 or so (Henry, Pires etc) when we used a boardroom at work for an auction before the season. Can't remember the website running it, but it was ace - we all chipped in and they sent an auctioneer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
