WHU606 Premier League Fantasy Football for 2018-19
Yes its back! The fantasy game that can bring highs, lows and (for me) so, so many why did I do thats!
I will try hard not to make too many TFs and not use my wildcard after GW1 (I think I did so the last two seasons ;lol )
I will also try to not get itchy fingers with the chips too!
It seems a battle between the stingey, cautious TFers and the cavalier, free flowing, devil may care TFers (is that just me?)
I have a draft to watch in 3 minutes but I am sure league codes etc., suggestions to classic, H2H will be added in due course
# will do best not to go into meltdown 2/3s of the way through the season too! ;whistle

West Ham news...
Arnie reclassified as a forward @ 7M
Arthur reclassified as a midfielder @ 4.5M
and no, I havent made any TFs....Yet ;wink
Ermmm no!
I didnt get Kane, Salah, Sanchez, Aubangeyang, Aguero, Jesus, Sterling, Sane, De Bruyne, Lukaku, Eriksen, Lacazette, Giroud or Morata
Now that takes some planning! ;lol
With the draft in mind I just had a peak and got my players in draft order. All of a sudden it told me the actual draft was minutes away (as 5 others had also very recently joined) So I rolled with it ;wink
With the 2019/20 season in mind, it totally depends on Payet ;lol
Maybe because I haven't selected a squad yet, the function isn't available.
I've set up a H2H: WHU606H2H (imaginatively named ;lol ) For code, see the announced thared ;ok
Not looking good though as I'm already below MidTableMediocrities. ;biggrin
Or wait for Yarmolenko for a 'Yarmo_be_there' handle.
#Its what I do
(the logically and obviously part was me actually joking ;whistle )
For some reason, I'd only registered the Arnie part of your comment.
Arthur is as cheap as it gets for a MFer. I do wonder, if Pelle plays a different system(s), whether Arthur will be a regular starter? Maybe he will though ;hmm
Leno & Dubravka are my keepers. I expect Leno to take over from Cech given his fee & Dubravka kept a few clean sheets after joining in Jan. Newcastle are pretty solid at the back under Rafa.
Alexander-Arnold looked a snip at around £5m given his game time last season, Rice is in as another cut price deal but may have to change that depending on 1) game time & 2) whether he is moved into midfield should he play for us under Pelle. Van Dijk, Bellerin & Lascelles make up the rest of my defence. VD because he tends to be good in the air, Lascelles as Newcastle tend to defend well under Rafa & Bellerin because he is quite adventurous.
Midfield I've gone for Cairney (who I like), Jota (bit of a punt but 18 goals last season for Wolves), Eriksen, Silva & Keita. Eriksen & Silva are obviously proven at scoring/assisting/taking set plays, whereas Keita is more an unknown. I felt Salah at £13m wasn't great value as second season syndrome potentially kicks in. Mane or KDB are the two I wanted to get in but couldn't find the money for them.
My front three are currently Kane, Arnie & Zaha. Not 100% sure on that either, but Arnie & Zaha were the stand outs of the players who were below the expensive group. Bit concerned about the WC players as they may well be eased back into the side come the PL season with a few sub appearances.
But as I said, more than likely to change the XI at some point. Once I study pre-season results, transfers & any injuries/fitness issues.
(not that I'm revealing yet as I'll make at least 14 changes next week)
What’s the pin for the normal league pls peeps?
;ravel
