Arsenal
Tottenham
Chelsea
Liverpool
Man Utd
Stoke

Maybe?

by David James Number One Fri Jul 06, 2012 3:03 pm

I forgot about Liverpool haha!

Think they could be up there too, but considering its 3 injuries a week I would be worried about your lack of depth..

by Fernando Fri Jul 06, 2012 3:04 pm

Injuries will be done on Monday Realistic Premier League - Page 18 3559488474

by Trebs Fri Jul 06, 2012 3:07 pm

I've still got a lot of cash to spend, I've got about 14/15 good players who could easily all start, going to use next week to sort out squad depth.

by David James Number One Fri Jul 06, 2012 3:13 pm

Yeah true:) Think I hopefully will be in with a ood chance in the league:)

are we haaving an FA CUP, if so can i do a draw?!

by The_Enigma Fri Jul 06, 2012 3:14 pm

Got the tactics up. Will post my media interview later on Laugh

I know my team won't pull up any tree's this season, but looking at finishin 9th/10th place.

by Trebs Fri Jul 06, 2012 3:17 pm

If you want to run it, yes that'd be great. Wouldn't start for a few weeks yet though. Something like:

Between weeks 4 + 5 Round 1
Between weeks 7 + 8 QF
Between weeks 11 + 12 SF
End of season Final

You could do results and the draw if you wanted

by The Special Juan Fri Jul 06, 2012 3:18 pm

Foreigns won't be up until Murray is finished. Start praying Laugh

by Trebs Fri Jul 06, 2012 3:20 pm

Is Murray on straight after the Federer-Djokovic game?

by The Special Juan Fri Jul 06, 2012 3:21 pm

Yeah. About 15/20 minutes after it play will start.

by Trebs Fri Jul 06, 2012 3:22 pm

Could get them answered around 11 tonight then Whistle

by The Special Juan Fri Jul 06, 2012 3:26 pm

Murray will win in 2 hours Whistle

by Fernando Fri Jul 06, 2012 3:32 pm

yeah right he's going to get dominated like max mosley Whistle

by David James Number One Fri Jul 06, 2012 3:33 pm

Yeah I could run the cup Smile

I will set up a page now, Could someone however take over doing the league table as I find the html confusing :L

by Trebs Fri Jul 06, 2012 3:48 pm

Thanks mate

Set up the page, but for now you don't have to do anything, it's week 4 when people get their first cash injection it'll become relevant

by Marky Fri Jul 06, 2012 4:12 pm

Cheers Trebs and Hero for your optimism about Stoke, my aim is Top 8.

There's a clear Top 5 (Chelsea, Arsenal, Man U, Spurs, Liverpool) with a secondary league between Newcastle, Villa, Everton, Fulham and hopefully Stoke, and the lower league between the likes of Reading, Swansea, Southampton, Norwich, West Ham and West Brom.

Maybe i'm wrong, and some of those sides have higher aims, but that's my view on it.

by Fernando Fri Jul 06, 2012 4:15 pm

Top 5 for me will be

Arsenal/United/Spurs/Newcastle/Liverpool potentially Chelsea

by Trebs Fri Jul 06, 2012 4:17 pm

I think that's about spot on Marky, top 5 all want CL, secondary league want Europa and lower league want to avoid relegation.

I am aiming to break into that secondary league Whistle

by GSC Fri Jul 06, 2012 4:28 pm

Flying under the radar I see

To be honest when I wrote it out I had Swansea in the secondary league, but avoiding relegation in the second season would be a great achievement for Swansea, even if the aims are higher.

by Trebs Fri Jul 06, 2012 4:31 pm

I think Swansea should aim to be top of that mini-league

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Fri Jul 06, 2012 4:33 pm

Where do you think Norwich will be? I reckon I can finish top of that mini league

by cherriesfna Fri Jul 06, 2012 4:34 pm

u think my soton will go down?

by Trebs Fri Jul 06, 2012 4:35 pm

It's difficult to say before the season has started. I reckon it'll go down to the final day.

by Marky Fri Jul 06, 2012 4:42 pm

cherriesfan wrote:u think my soton will go down?

I didn't say that, I said you'll be fighting relegation. If you keep them up that's a pretty good season.

by cherriesfna Fri Jul 06, 2012 4:58 pm

where should i finish evryone, shouldi expect to stay up?

by Trebs Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:01 pm

I think that should be your target Cherries, I wouldn't take it for granted you'll stay up as there's many teams of a similar ability around you.

by GSC Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:06 pm

How many teams get relegated

by Trebs Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:07 pm

three

by cherriesfna Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:10 pm

i think the signing ivemade are good, got some good experience into my side

by GSC Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:13 pm

They're experienced, but I'm not convinced they're that good anymore.

by cherriesfna Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:18 pm

malouda was starting for the frnech
while Maxi was one of liverpools best players
davis was one of rangersbetter players
Jones is a powerhouse who has lots of prem Experience

by Marky Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:21 pm

If Jones was that good I wouldn't have sold him to you from Stoke.

I think your side is good enough to stay up as long as the tactics are right.

by GSC Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:23 pm

Malouda was pretty poor last year and Maxi barely played

by Gregers Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:23 pm

Trebs, managers of relegated sides - do they get to immediately take over a promoted side

by Trebs Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:25 pm

They can if they want to, yes

Promoted sides also get first picks on players from the relegated clubs, so they have some chance.

But we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:30 pm

So what do you guys think will happen to me this season?

by Gregers Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:32 pm

Just wondered thats all trebs, hopefully shouldn't affect me lol

Olly, I think you'll bravely fight off relegation and finish 12th

by cherriesfna Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:33 pm

maxi was byfarone ofliverpools best players when he played

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:33 pm

What do you guys think to my squad? I have tried to go for the 'realistic' moves, in that I have gone for football league players from foreigns

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:34 pm

cherriesfan wrote:maxi was byfarone ofliverpools best players when he played

No he wasn't. He just scored some goals. Other than that he did bugger all.
If he was that good they would have played him more often, and not let him go for free to Argentina thumbsup

by GSC Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:35 pm

All of my foreigns were championship players haha

by Gregers Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:37 pm

Good moves Ollstar given the limited options you had, same question on who I have bought in (that as of as soon as trebs posts tactics will include Kuyt)

by cherriesfna Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:38 pm

maxi didnt want to bethere

by GSC Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:38 pm

Because he never played

by Trebs Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:39 pm

I'm looking to sell a couple of backup defenders if anyone's interested?
Coates, Carragher can go for the right offers.

by Gregers Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:40 pm

Carragher I'd be interested in trebs, anychance of a loan and then I'll pay later in the season once I get more cash?

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Fri Jul 06, 2012 5:42 pm

Trebs depending on how my foreigns go today I am interested in Carragher.
