34 with Hazard (C) to come. Left Evans on the bench which is annoying.

Butland is also out until September. Mandanda didn't play because (and I quote) 'he went to the Euros'. He didn't play a single game there Pardew, you giant thundercampaigner. :mad:
 
Are people going to trade this week?

I won't be, gotta back my starting team for a couple weeks; I'll then have 2 free trades to make corrections

Players increasing/decreasing in price will be annoying though

Absolutely. Got to take advantage of price changes from the start. Tadic to Redmond was a straight forward one for me, and now I have 2.5 in the bank.

He went to the Euros so he had a much shorter Pre-Season, whether he played or not.

Fair enough

I'm considering making a change, but really want to give them another match

Long to Negredo/Rondon ?
Alli to Lamela + $1.5 ?


hmmm

Either of those would be a good move I think. I'd lean towards Long to Rondon, but Negredo is looking good already as well. I think Rondon is a bigger point of difference though.

So did several players though. Kante went and changed sides. Ibra went and changed sides.

Goalkeeper is an easier position to learn in a new team as well. Just a terrible reason.

Depends how long his break was I guess.
 
47 with Courtois and Payet to come

Average last night from Firminho and Shaw, dafuq did Firminho do? Liverpool score 4 goals and he can't even pick up a measly assist :rolleyes:


Hey Cooldude RossFC Zidane98 did Firminho play his usual second striker type role or did he play out wide overnight?

If he looks like playing a different role to last year I might ship him out

Had a front 3 of Cout-Firmino-Mane. Firmino did f all. Origi probs should have started.

He was false nine, so basically was the main striker. I dunno what happens when Sturridge comes back, but I think with the difficult set of fixtures coming up, Jurg would play him upfront for a while

Coutinho's the pick this season if you want a Liverpool attacker. I picked him at first but I decided to leave him out coz I didn't wanna jinx him or something

You reckon hold on Firmino or pull the trigger down to a Lamela or something?

Coutinho is a gun, but he's not a prolific goalscorer, he's about 1 in 5 whereas Firmino is about 1 in 3, I just reckon I'd be chasing points if I went to Coutinho as surely by seasons end their output stays similar depending on injuries




The goal Lamela scored on the weekend was symbolic of how he was playing when he was at Roma, he also had a solid preseason as he tore Inter a new one 2 weeks ago, I guess one more good game from him and I'm pulling the trigger (might not be for Firmino, could be Vardy or someone else)

If Sturridge, Origi and Firmino are all fit I can't see Firmino starting every game.

I would swap Firmino for Coutinho who is cheaper, but I wouldn't depend on Firmino too much, he's a bit inconsistent. Swap for someone 1 mil cheaper or something who'd output more
 
64 done and dusted without a clean sheet, could've been so much more.

Happy with that and no need to hit the transfer button at this stage.
 
Having a look at the fixture, I've realized Long was a bad get, Southhampton have a hard early run

Wish I did some research :(


Negredo and Rondon both look juicy over the next few weeks, think I need to pull the trigger

I was very gunshy on Arsenal, Tottenham, Liverpool and Southampton because of early fixtures, but I thought Firmino would do something so went him

Load up on City, Utd, West Ham, Everton and Chelsea IMO

Absolute shambles of an opening week. 5 players did not start, no GKs either. Selected Martial, Rondon, Fabianksi and Llorente only to change my mind hours before Saturday evening. Vardy looks crap, Eriksen Alderweireld did nothing. Wow. And 24 pts is all I got from this week.

Where's the delete team button :eek:
 
on 50, with Hazard to come


at the last minute I changed Lamela to Alli
I know it's only 1 week and I won't be trading, but it's always annoying

Hopefully Alli punishes CP at home next week!
Same score and same player to play

At least one maybe two. Mandanda didn't start for palace for some reason so will check that out. Hojberg back to Capoue possibly since he is a bit more advanced under the new manager. Maybe Djiboudi if Kone isn't sold. And I wanna get Ashley Williams at some point

I do hours and hours of research the week before the EPL starts and it never seems to work out for me.

On 52 with Hazard to come. Martial, Aguero and Lamela my saviours.

Considering trading Vardy out for someone cheaper but not sure who. Arsenal did concede 4 goals so maybe trading Vardy out isn't the best idea?
