ye dats a good midfield

mine is a bit weak with alonso, musampa, johansson and boateng

Only person I'd keep put of that is Kiki!

 

[z10]

Like in the case of Alonso. He's my favourite player alongside Stevie but he won't get you as many points as Stevie or even Garcia!

true

dis is why i need to make changes..im thinking of trying to accomodate emre..

For midfield, try to have players who score goals or in other words play a more attacking role. e.g Makelele and Didi are good players but you don't expect them to go forward.

For defense, try to have defenders which you think'll keep clean sheets (like last year everton, mancity and blackburn had plenty) and it'd be a positive if ur defenders usually go forward on set pieces and score goals (e.g terry and hyppia)

ye...das wat i suspected would be the best idea

anyhow how does a defensive midfielder score points?

Well you get points for appearances and midfielders do get point for clean sheets too but it is less compared to what they get if they score hence ur better off with attacking midfieldes.

They also score points if they assist goals!

 

[z10]

i c

thnx

in that case lets go for a goal scoring midfield

points galore IMO

That's why I have picked all 4 as attacking midfielders!

actually Musampa is not a bad option!
i reckon he will have more points than Boateng

BTW your midfield is average imo z10 - i guess you used all your money in strike

 

[z10]

my strike is pretty gud

forssell and henry

tho i think i will have to change this definately

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

my strike is pretty gud

forssell and henry

tho i think i will have to change this definately

Forsell is very good and he will score goals BUT he has injury worries - Everton didnt sign him cos he failed a medical, some say he is some issues BUT B'ham felt confident he would be okay!

Henry will score goals no doubt about it if he doesnt get any major injuries!

BTW hitman i wudnt get Cahil myself - yes he had a brilliant season BUT i think its a case of beginners luck! most players from Div 1 that have a good year usually follow it with an average one

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

Also every year a player from Division 1 usually has a class season for example Kevin Philips, Marcus Stewart, Michael Ricketts, Andy Johnson etc etc
So im considering whether to have Harewood,Ellington,Roberts or just go for a current Prem player..........dillema,dillema,dillema

COS last year i had Andy Johnson BUT at the last minute i got rid of him which was a bad mistake

 

[Bitman]

That is what I said! Musampa is his best midfielder!

 

[Bitman]

GA, remember you can make transfers throughout the season! One if free per gameweek and any on top of that cost 4 points each! So if somebody gets injured or is out of form you can make changes!

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

That is what I said! Musampa is his best midfielder!

OH so you did, i obviously misread it!

 

[Bitman]

OH so you did, i obviously misread it!

Go to Specsavers!

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

Go to Specsavers!

[Bitman]

[Geordie Ahmed]

"tho i think harewood may be a gamble"

and besides, hijacking is only really worth it when its a nice juicy thread to hijack...not one like this

 

[Rob H]

I again request:

PLEASE KEEP THE DISCUSSION ON THIS THREAD RELATED TO FANTASY FOOTBALL OR AT MOST, FOOTBALL!

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Gotcha. Back to fantasy football it is then.
Do you think that Marcus Bent is a decent player to have or is there a better striker for 6.5 million?

 

[Bitman]

Marbus Bent won't get you too many points!

My strikers are Henry and Diouf!

 

[Rob H]

[Bitman]

For what?

 

[Rob H]

A replacement for Marcus bent. Someone who is 6.5 mill or below

 

[Bitman]

k wait.

 

[Bitman]

Earnshaw (WB)
Pedersen (Bolton)
Stead (Sunderland)
Ferguson (Everton)

 

[Has]

Hey guys, i thought we were competing with each other, whats with all the tips?

 

[Bitman]

lol. Some people ned a bit of help! Tips are limited though. That is why not everybody is displaying their team just yet!

 

[Has]

So what formation are you playing?

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

***?

I tried to log on to the fantasy league site and it says you cant log on cos there are too many managers on the site at the moment. . . . what kind of rubbish is that?

 

[Rob H]

***?

Yup happened to me too. Maybe some people have hijacked the site

 

[Has]

Yeah same happened here, all those people put it off and try to do it towards the end and the site gets jamed.

I managed to log on about 20 minutes ago though.

 

[Bitman]

Yeah that did happen earlier. I logged in sucessfullly after a bit though the site was a bit slow today! I think everybody has decided to wait till today before entering their teams. lolz

Has, I'm playing a 4-4-2 ans my bro isplaying 3-4-3!

 

[Has]

Your bro is a wise man!

 

[Rob H]

Hitman your bro supports Manure? You must be disappointed in him.

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

A replacement for Marcus bent. Someone who is 6.5 mill or below

why replace bent?
for £6.5mill he gets good points - last year he got 99

 

[Bitman]

Hitman your bro supports Manure? You must be disappointed in him.

haha.

He actually defected from Liverpool to United a few years back!

I have three brothers and they support: Chelsea, United and Arsenal. lol

 

[Rob H]

haha.

He actually defected from Liverpool to United a few years back!

[Bitman]

and why did you let him?. We shouldn't allow people to become glory hunting Manu fans.
