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.

Re: Realistic Premier League

Players for sale if you give a good enough offer.

Re: Realistic Premier League
Bull, you can't say "players for sale" then have extortionate asking prices. I wasn't offering £38M for Jones, I was mocking your high prices. If they're for sale, they'll be competitively priced.

Then no-one's going to sign them.
And there's a difference between the players leaving on the cheap, and you being greedy.

Higuain Torres Mata
Mate. Piazon is an AM not a winger.

Re: Realistic Premier League
Morning all, I have a team ready for tonight's game. Needing my transfers to go through before I can post though.
Bull, I don't think you're being fair with your prices, it's why we couldn't agree anything on Michael Carrick, Anderson or Nani.

Rest, looks alright but needs good tactics to turn it into a good side.

Re: Realistic Premier League
Kieron Richardson is better at left back, and I think Lallana is better further forward. Other than that, good job

IMo when on the pitch Maxi was one of liverpools best players.
i was planning to go 4-4-2 but tell lallana to push up when attacking

Davis may be an experienced keeper, but he is quite old now and I don't think he has ever been Prem standard

Shutting down Torres/Drogba (in the PL) isn't as good as it used to be.

Re: Realistic Premier League
yes but OTW you where under valuing them
you offered Krasic + 15m = Carrick and Nani?
so Nani is worth 15m?

Re: Realistic Premier League
No. You said yourself Krasic was worth at least 16m.
Krasic (16m) + 15m
=
Carrick (11m) + Nani (20m)
Krasic (16m) + 15m

Carrick (11m) + Nani (20m)

You're misinterpreting realistic.
What are you saying, if I give you 40m worth of talent you'd sell?

Certainly not a bad player and now he's got a permanent team it should assist him, needs to steer clear of the nights out.

Re: Realistic Premier League
Hoping he does something special at the Olympics, could raise his ratings. I reckon he'll do well this season, end up with a decent rating when he gets more exposure to the Premier league.

Question of the day...
As it stands prior to the first set of games, what do you think will be the top five at the end of the season?

Post tactics here
(/spoiler)
But use [ ] instead of ( )
Hero, me and you will be there, definitely. Not being arrogant but I think we will do well. I reckon Arsenal, Chelsea and United have to be the favourites on paper, but I expect a team from nowhere to come in and get a top four spot, it always seemed to happen on the old leagues, someone like Stoke maybe?

I can certainly see Stoke ruffling a few feathers because I know Marky is both shrewd in the transfer market and a decent tactician.
