Ty sold ferdinand since he's value has dropped to 3m and his offer is still 6.5m

Guys, Im using my Jan wildcard (unlimited transfers) in Fantasy League.
Im currently 13th out of 170 in works sponsored league. Top 15 get paid.
The leader is on 1371 points. Im on 1263.
This is my current team:

GK: Federici & Bunn
Def: Rafael, Cameron, Davies, Nastasic, Demel
Mid: Joe Cole, Wilshere, Walcott, Taarabt, Pienaar
Att: RVP, Suarez, Dzeko
Money in the bank: 2.4m

Looking to change to this:
GK: Federici & Boruc
Def: Azpilicueta, Rafael, Dawson, Zabaleta, Demel
Mid: Joe Cole, Adam Johnson, Fellaini, Lennon, Taarabt
Att: RVP, Suarez, Giroud
Money in the bank: 0.6m

What you think? Does it look better? Obviously fixtures make a difference & form. Ive looked into most of this. Just want opinions from other Footie Fans who aren't in my works league, as I dont want people coping me, im way ahead of any of my colleagues which will total to me winning £125 just from bets with them.
If I finish in top 15 in the league I get anything from £20 up. 1st gets £300, 4th gets £50. Im aiming to repeat last years 4th place at a minimum.

Hope Akpan's gone up 566.7%

£50k to £450k

Has anyone ever heard their own voice and been like "that is not how I sound"

I sound completely different in my own head to how I actually sound. It's terrible.

Duncan Alexander ‏@oilysailor
Balotelli departs the Premier League with just one assist. Won the title with it, though.

WOW

I'm same as you

Has anyone ever heard their own voice and been like "that is not how I sound"

Yes, we reacord all calls at work in case. Ive had to listen to them at time.

Anyway, does nobody have anything to say about my Fantasy Football team? everyone here like football, surely you must know a thing or two about dream teams!

I don't want to give advice that may cost you money!

I don't want to give advice that may cost you money!

Hush!! Its not advise, its an opinion. You wont cost me money, im like 200 points ahead of closest work colleague. + I can always use my normal wildcard and sort my team out if it fails. So does anyone have any opinions or not?

id change Johnson/Demel/Dawson tbh if i was you ZZZ and why keep 0.6m in the bank use it or lose chump

Lennon will probably be injured soon
Giroud is poo and behind Walcott at Arsenal I guess

Giroud is not poo

Anyone want Szalai for TM Price (6.2m)

So 13 goals and 9 assists isn't bad for a 1st season tbf

He is a bit poo

Nando, I always keep a bit in the bank in case of injuries. Injured play may result in needing to make a transfer. 1 free transfer per week. If I have no cash then I could have to make 2 transfer to free up some for the player I want to bring in. If you make more than 1 transfer per gameweek it cost 4 points per each one.

Johnson/Demel/Dawson

Demal 4m back up.
A Johnson, picking up form + sunderlands fixtures. Last 2 games hes got 1 goal, 2 assists & 2 bonus points.
Dawson, back in spurs line up. Im last 8 spurs matches they have kept 6 clean sheets.
Giroud, 7.8m as a striker in a team which creates lots of chances is cheap. got a brace last week followed by a brace in the FA cup. picking up form.

Does that make sense to anyone? If you give me better reasons then "he poo" ill happily take him out my team.

Should I go Podolski instead of Giroud?

Heh heh, now you're doubting your gut. Don't doubt your first selection, because you'd be really angry if they turn out to be good ones, so stick to your guns.

I'm thinking who will get more starts. Its quite mixed. Podolski can take set pieces too

Podolski will play on the left so he may chip in more assists. But he won't be playing West Ham anymore, sadly for him.

Another option is take Suarez out & put Demba Ba & Tevez in.
But both aren't regular starters of late so its not ideal.

Ben Pearce ‏@BenPearceSpurs
#thfc New signing Lewis Holtby also goes straight into the squad for tomorrow's game at Norwich.

Decisions people decisions! Come on we are supposed to be pretend managers! Where's Viva & Azzy when you need them?

Since I put Tevez in my dream team he has been woeful. Demba Ba always pops up with goals, but he might not play much in front of Torres.

Chamakh

Surprised Afro hasn't bought Fer by now
Good replacement for Fellaini

I normally wait to see how they settle and perform. No blue tinted purchasing from me.

And it is inevitable that Fellaini will leave in the summer if we don't manage to get a CL spot. Whether Fer can replace him depends on how well he does, but he is definately a built to directly replace him

Chamakh lol never! Rather put Vaz Te in lol.

That's my concern with Ba, he's not guaranteed too start with Rafas stupid rotation policy. Tevez has got 13 assists but not loads of goals + his minutes of late have been poor. With Agureo back Dzeko is bound to drop back to the bench.

Ive got till 7:30pm to decide

There a few rumor going round that he may be gone by Thursday

It's looking pretty certain from the club and the player that he wants to stay until the summer, but will only stay with CL football after that.

BTW My 0 Everton players v your 4 Arsenal players

I think the paper rumours are because we suddenly announce we are spending £7-8m on Fer when we have no money.

What it ignores is that we are apparantly paying only a small amount up front and most of it in installments. We also had a net profit of £4m from our summer dealings which is supposed to still be available for Moyes to use

Afrojit !!!!
What you think to my Fantasy Team dillema?

I'm not good at Fantasy League, so not the person to give advice.

Right, I'm off now

I know there's still a cup final to come, but are we definitely going to be nominating two players for lawyers offers and then having to accept 3 out of our 5 offers?

Cup Week 6:
Final
Deportivo la Chorizo v Atalanta Falcons

For this, tactics deadline is Friday, but if you both get them in earlier, I can post them earlier and the voting can be done earlier, wrapping up the season a little sooner.

How many have you had or tried to buy

How is this draft going to work?

I think putting them all back on the market for TP's is a better idea than a draft, for one thing, there's plenty of squads at the maximum and they'd technically have to release player(s) just in case they win with the highest bid.

Yes. I think that is the way we are going

Okay, that is a reasonable point, so perhaps it is best just to release them back into TPs

Cool. I think i've picked mine, it's no suprise one of mine is Erik Pieters after his 'head's gone' moment last week!

Sandros tm has gone up by 4 million!

be a good time to sell him then since his out for the season

Indeed, he was going to be one of my end of season lawyers anyway due to injury

What up?

They were asking for songs it would be inappropriate for Paul Scholes to listen to on his iPod on the radio this morning

Keep the Car Running by Arcade Fire was my favourite.

lol
One he can use when he get a new ride is, Feeder - Buck Rogers

I have two leaving cards for people in other departments today, and I am supposed to give money. Thing is, I barely know either of them, and I only have tenners. No way are they each worth a tenner.

Is that tight? I don't feel that bad about it, it's not like they're leaving to live in poverty.

what where the results btw

No soddy thats not tight.
I get well pee'd off when bleeding bday cards, get well soon, leaving, sponsor me for jumping on the bandwagon (Movember) poopie comes round work.
£5 here and there builds up. In Nov I had 6 people ask for sponsorship just for jumping on the movember bandwagon. That could of totaled £30
Then every damn month its someones bday or something so there a damn collection.
Ive been with my company for 4 of my birthdays, I always book mine off as I make plans for the week, have I every received anything from the company/staff, no. So because im on annual leave they dont do a collection for me, not even a card.
Ive been dubbed at work as Scrooge McDuck. Everyone thinks I get mahoosive bonuses & because I dont put into anything Ive got stacks of cash.
Really grinds my gears.

So no soddy, you dont have to put in if you dont want!
