Would anybody be up for a realistic league using the premier league? Have 16 teams, cut the three promoted sides and one other team out as it makes cup running easier and easier to get all the managers in. Different teams would have different targets for the managers. Some of the teams like Man United and Man City would want a title win, whilst some of the lower teams like Norwich would see it as an achievement to avoid relegation. Each season would last fifteen weeks, with tactics due by Friday night and match results announced on a Monday morning, so we have a Premier League weekend.
Tactics and the team played would both be taken into account when deciding on a result, so shocks can happen, if a small side is set up much better than they can draw or even win games despite playing a better side on paper, just like what would happen in real life. At the end of each season the bottom three are relegated, top four get into a Champions League with four foreign teams, the next four into the Europa League and the bottom eight into FA Cup. But for the first season everyone takes part in an FA Cup, which would be easy to run with 16 teams.
The teams would be done via a random draw, but if managers both agree then swaps are allowed, and also any manager can swap their side for one of the promoted sides if they would prefer a challenge with a lower team.

When you go to Ipswich you have to put up with a funny smell. A smell of defeat which we don't experience here in Norfolk.

Defensively good except Mikel who isn't rated that high. Lamps/Gourcuff is interesting but Ramires/Gourcuff is better. Ramires is also better in a cm, cam or dam position than wide right. Mata is better at cam than on the left.
---------------Cech-------------
Ivanovic Cahill Terry Cole
---Ramires-Gourcuff------
? ------------Mata----------?
---------------Torres---------
Is much better imo, Marin on the left and Hazard/Hulk on the right.
Re: Realistic Premier League
That team would be pretty open defensively. If you play that system you need somebody to sit really.

Re: Realistic Premier League

-------------Howard
Corluka--Dann--Williams--Taylor

-------------Graham
Though graham should be replaced by Jay Rodriguez in the near future.
Should be good enough not to mention bottom.

Re: Realistic Premier League
I honestly don't know my team yet, Might go for a striker in foreigns which would change it for me.
And tactics are due on Friday night, if that makes sense

Saha, Defoe or even Adebayor could all leave if a decent offer was made.

Unsure in honesty.
Like Torres he's badly suffered for form but has shown form in the last few weeks of the last season and at Euros. Will it continue is the gamble.

Re: Realistic Premier League
It's just deciding whether or not to accept my foreign offer. I'm worried if I sell him now he might score a load of goals next season.
I have quite a few ideas who I could get in foreigns as well.
Decisions, decisions, who'd be a manager.
