I set up a classic league for us to find a reason to care about Bournemouth versus Burnley midweek games!

The insanely over-compressed images they're using for the shirts are annoying me. They look terrible.

Any hot tips from the promoted teams? I've taken a punt on Mounie from Huddersfield.

here's my AFC Vermouth team. Bravely benching my Leicester boys this week cause we never beat Arsenal.

joined up as "De Finurlige Fyre". Not a very funny name, but I already made my team to play with other friends so.



Heard good things about players like Knockaert and Ritchie but not feeling too sure about taking a punt

In as It's a Knockaert. There's a goon league that's been going for years but I don't have the code for it, TRP Goon Liga. The thread always dies before the end of the season but I've been playing this game for 11 years now so I'll always be here.

I haven't played in years but if nothing has changed then expect to be in the top 5 by mid-season because everyone else will have tired of it by then.

Hey friends what are your hot picks for the GW? I've dropped Willian for Knockaert which is probably a terrible idea and now have far too much money unspent (£2.8M!) so hopefully next week I can do something fun with it, not really sure what my long-term plan is here but whatever.

Surely this is the week that Kane explodes into action. Right..? Guys?

Good call on dropping Willian. I only had him in because Zaha got crocked. But now Hazard is back his time is up. As a Brighton supporter I'd love Knockaert or Gross or Izquierdo in my team. But I also want to do well... so I'm conflicted.

I've got David Silva in this week because De Bruyne is just playing too far back to be a good Fantasy prospect. He'll probably get rotated now I've got him in.

Finally broke into the top 5 now Harry Kane has got past the August rut. David Silva is performing above expectations and seems to be a consistent starter which helps a lot. Maguire's turned out to be a solid point scorer despite Leicester's low # of clean sheets. Not sure whether David Luiz will make it back into my team when his suspension's up.

15th. Preparing to wildcard this week, though my Team is not all bad - it's just too many hits to get Aguero/Kane in alongside Lukaku.

If you do your transfers earlier than about an hour before the deadline then you deserve all the late injuries that you get imo

Good point. I'm new to fantasy so this has been a useful lesson.

Well, yes, in a way, but there's also price rises and drops to take into account. Sometimes you just gotta take a risk.

Just moved inside the top 4,000. Had a hard time deciding who to captain out of Lukaku and Kane. My heart said Kane but my head decided Lukaku at home to Palace was the safer option. Shoulda listened to my heart.
