I have submitted my first tactics Yahoo

I tried to take some examples from the last league, so hopefully they will go down okay

by Holymiky Thu 27 Feb 2014, 2:05 pm

I'm sure they will be fine Bianco.

I am yet to try out Lallana Zebs but I do want to.

I'm excited for the league to start up again , I will be writing the tactics for the match against Ajax tonight after the football podcast recording.

by Marky Thu 27 Feb 2014, 4:33 pm

Took me a while but I've decided on my England squad for WC14.

Based on us playing 4-3-3/4-5-1 and having two players for each position with plenty of flexibility.

GK: Hart, Forster, Foster
RB: Jones, Flanagan
LB: Baines, Shaw
CB: Cahill, Jagielka, Lescott, Dawson
CM: Gerrard, Henderson, Wilshere, Barkley, Milner, Lallana
Wing: Sterling, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Welbeck
CF: Rooney, Sturridge, Carroll

by Guest Thu 27 Feb 2014, 5:00 pm

by Guest Thu 27 Feb 2014, 5:28 pm

Please tell me you mispelt Dawson...

by GSC Thu 27 Feb 2014, 5:43 pm

Why would he misspell the name of Englands finest CB?

by Marky Thu 27 Feb 2014, 6:04 pm

Who else goes ahead of Dawson? Caulker? Smalling? Exactly.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Thu 27 Feb 2014, 6:15 pm

I'd rather take a Smalling or a Caulker actually, Michael Dawson is absolutely atrocious.

by GSC Thu 27 Feb 2014, 6:49 pm

...so are Smalling and Caulker

by Guest Thu 27 Feb 2014, 6:51 pm

id rather take Jones, over all of them!

by GSC Thu 27 Feb 2014, 7:08 pm

Jones is a jack of all trades, master of none right now. He'd be a squad player for me

by Marky Thu 27 Feb 2014, 7:19 pm

Jones is my right back choice.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Thu 27 Feb 2014, 7:20 pm

I'd take Smalling instead, and he's Poopie thats how much I dont rate Dawson

You've also missed Big John

by Marky Thu 27 Feb 2014, 7:36 pm

If I dropped Dawson it would be to move Jones to CB and bring Kyle Walker. So Dawson it is yeah?!

Ruddy and Foster is the toss of a coin to be fair.

Good god there's a conundrum

by FIFA Diva Thu 27 Feb 2014, 7:48 pm

We don't need 4 CB, I'd rather take Jones who can cover CB and rb and take an extra attacker.

by Fan Gilhaus Thu 27 Feb 2014, 8:03 pm

The gks getting 22.5 mins each lol what a waste o time

by Marky Thu 27 Feb 2014, 9:26 pm

Tactics sent to Zebs. Looking forward to seeing how it goes.

by GSC Thu 27 Feb 2014, 9:43 pm

Andy Townsend has described Adebayor as a leader

by GSC Thu 27 Feb 2014, 9:46 pm

Soldado missesa sitter. Normal service is resumed

by Marky Thu 27 Feb 2014, 9:52 pm

Considering Dnipro are still only one goal away from going through on away goals, it's a bit early to be commenting on anyone being a leader Laugh

by **Hero** Thu 27 Feb 2014, 11:43 pm

Tactics in x

by Holymiky Fri 28 Feb 2014, 1:04 am

I sent my tactics in a little while ago also - Good luck Hero

by **Hero** Fri 28 Feb 2014, 7:00 am

You too fella

by Holymiky Fri 28 Feb 2014, 9:49 am

Thanks mate

How is everyone today? What is everyone up to? How do you feel your first match will go?

by **Hero** Fri 28 Feb 2014, 9:56 am

Mine will be interesting as it's a lot down to judging who people rate etc, whilst I may think Player X is the next Messi, those judging my games may think he's a pile of overrated tosh who's never proven it.

On that note though Halilovic looks to be signing with Barca.

by Marky Fri 28 Feb 2014, 10:05 am

Problem (for you) is that even if he does move to Barca, it won't be until June at the earliest. Won't play first team game until August. There will be a point where World Cup players are the best ones to sign!

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Fri 28 Feb 2014, 10:06 am

Morning,

Tactics will be up soon guys.

by **Hero** Fri 28 Feb 2014, 10:15 am

Yeah I realise it's a distant thing but it does though show he's thought of highly by one of the best teams in the world which can only be a good thing for me.

If the idea is to encourage domestic transfers, then it makes sense that it can be either, otherwise isn't it just generating cash which is already proving tricky to spend.

Would be good to know as it will decide whether I try to use a player in a part ex or just sell him.

Can I get an answer on this as it has an impact on who I sell?

by **Hero** Fri 28 Feb 2014, 10:36 am

I'd like to know that as well as I was getting offers on Bojan which I'd have probably gone for but he was the only one of the three I got lawyers on that I would have accepted.

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Fri 28 Feb 2014, 10:39 am

With the lawyers offers, is it that we have to accept one offer, or one of the players must be sold either domestically or through the lawyers offer?

Sold to lawyers or from your team internally that week by Sunday 11:59pm.

by Bianconeri Fri 28 Feb 2014, 10:41 am

Thanks Zebs.

Can Hero have Bojan back to sell domestically then (possibly to me Whistle

, as he only accepted Bojan because he thought he had to)

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Fri 28 Feb 2014, 11:26 am

Sorry Bian he cant lol. Hero didnt ask about the selling thing before he sold + wasnt your enquiry after?

by **Hero** Fri 28 Feb 2014, 11:40 am

Hero wrote:One of the players I've got an offer on is currently involved in transfer negotiations with Bian, if I instead trade him does that mean I have to still sell one of my remaining two?

I did ask a few days ago and before I then sold Bojan.

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Fri 28 Feb 2014, 11:43 am

The Gregalicious Tactics are up
Everyone in my league please get voting. Send votes to me.

by GSC Fri 28 Feb 2014, 11:55 am

Nice to see a range of tactics not 4-2-3-1

Here is Hero's question about it, which didn't get answered

by Bianconeri Fri 28 Feb 2014, 12:08 pm

GSC wrote:Nice to see a range of tactics not 4-2-3-1

When I first did my tactics, I used the 3-5-2-1 formation until I realised it was 12 players

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Fri 28 Feb 2014, 12:12 pm

I did ask a few days ago and before I then sold Bojan..

Did you?

by Bianconeri Fri 28 Feb 2014, 12:28 pm

I can vouch for it as I was waiting for the answer to his question as well, before I asked it again.

by Holymiky Fri 28 Feb 2014, 12:34 pm

Hero are you getting Thief?

Is anyone else?

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Fri 28 Feb 2014, 12:42 pm

OK Bian, ill make a decision by this afternoon.

Milky, Hero is a Thief, he like to shoplift bacon.

by Bianconeri Fri 28 Feb 2014, 12:46 pm

I don't even know if Hero wants to reverse it and he might not be remotely interested in my offer.

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Fri 28 Feb 2014, 12:54 pm

Bian, offer some bacon, Hero will accept them.

by **Hero** Fri 28 Feb 2014, 1:07 pm

Not sure on Thief tbh, reviews haven't been that great. Getting Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare later today though probably.

by **Hero** Fri 28 Feb 2014, 1:40 pm

Anyone wish to purchase two players from outside the league that hasn't used this weeks cap yet and sell them to me for a quick 1m profit?

by Marky Fri 28 Feb 2014, 2:31 pm

I thought that process was banned months ago?
