But with no prize money before you try it Nadz.

Oh okay thanks Afro, haven't seen any of him really so that's useful to me, he can play on the wing then?

Also Miky, not sure about Rabiot and Maher together. I think they'd get steamrollered. I'd have Rabiot + a new, solid enforcer type midfielder

If that's the case I will use him on the left wing instead of Afellay.

Interesting thank you Afro.

He was a winger in Brazil and for Benfica when he first moved there, but they moved him a second striker behind Lima and he was superb.

Have a look at him on the web. I'm sure I remember something about Chelsea wanting him, but there being work permit problems. Mourinho is a big fan, so he could even join Chelsea

Awesome stuff, thanks mate.

I have heard of him so maybe it was when rumours were flying around. Would you play Rabiot instead of Maher then alongside an enforcer type midfielder?

For me, Rabiot is better than Maher. Others may think differently

Miky what's your opinion on Oscar and why is Mourinho such a failure in bringing through young talented players? If Oscar was at Liverpool he'd be the best AM in the world.

Oscar is too soft for the Premier League. I don't think it is Mourinho or Chelseas fault. I don't think he is suited to the league.

Thanks Afro,

I like Oscar, pretty sure Jose said he wanted to build the team around him when he first came back to us.

I think Oscar has done okay this season although i wouldn't say he has been at his top level , I think there is much more to come from him and of course he is still young.

That's interesting Afro I always thought he settled in well and got used to the league very quickly.

You watch more of him than I do, so your opinion is more qualified than mine.

He just always seems to be on the floor.

Oscar was preferred to Mata who was considered too lightweight

I can only see him getting better and I feel he is an exciting player.

When he first joined Chelsea I had huge hopes for him, I thought he'd become one of the best players in the league and even overshadow Hazard.

I reckon Mourinho has to take the blame, he doesn't have the confidence in Oscar, he has never known how to take care of these young talents. Robben would have become better than Ronaldo, he ruined Cole who would have been the best English player since Scholes.

I would argue that Robben's career was helped under Jose Mourinho.

I'd actually play Isco CM, that's where he's flourished more this season for Real and was catalyst for their long unbeaten run, only since moving back to AM have Real started to suffer again.

Oh and results are up...

I didn't say anything YET

Well done hero the results were very good but can you please not give away my transfer targets. Malouda is MINE!

Also Isco has turned into a rather good CM but since James has been injured, his form has dropped off.

You've improved the team miky and for that I SALUTE YOU TEN HUT! But I feel 40mill for Isco Disco is a bit too much. He is not 17mill better than Ericcson.

Also someone put up a page for end og season aw rds and some categories.

Iniesta and Schwein, can they play together in a 442 or does it need Coquelin/Carrick behind them?

A bit of Coq never hurt anyone. When your team doesnt have the ball, thats when Coq matters. With the ball, the Coq is outshone by others.

I wouldn't play Iniesta in a midfield two, or in CM at all tbh

Iniesta has always been a player that just doesn't work in pretend manager games as no-one can ever decide on what position he's best in.

Miky I'd go three man midfield but look to bring in a more b2b option instead of Touly. I'd also look to improve on Hunt up front.

Iniesta for me would only be CM in a 4-3-3. Anywhere else doesn't really work IMO.

What about this Hero?

-Maher - Isco-

On another note I joined a draft based league the other week on a different site (not Ja). I've ended up with this so far with 3 picks left:

Messi, Isco, Blind, Di Maria, Bernat, Luiz, Dost, Ramsey, Bartra, Jung, Badstuber, Draxler, Herrera, Hamsik, Gaya.

I took over the team after Luiz had already been drafted before anyone raises an eyebrow at that!

Or Toulalan in place of Rabiot.

Just a need to ask a question does people that are traded in league (not TP) after 9th March not count towards it so just solely TP's? Or is everyone that's moved...

That's how I'd go Miky.

From memory it's those from TP's, but someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

Shame Bellarabi's injured for me, but means I'll probably be playing;

I wanted to make iniesta an end of season lawyer

I presumed you bought Iniesta, regularly rated as the 3rd best player in the world, to, you know, play him?

How much do I get for write ups btw?

1.5m

Personally I think Iniesta is a steal at that price. Can't see how you can replace him for even Lawyers value.

If he wasn't 30, he'd be up with the value of Bale, Suarez and Neymar. Still the man who makes Barca tick.

And where to play him is easy, he plays behind a striker or left inside forward. Same position as Silva for City. Exactly where he plays for Barca.

I wouldn't sell him Trebs. Until someone signs Messi or CR7, easily the best player in the league IMO

To be fair I did think that Isco would get more ratings, interesting.

I rate Isco higher than Iniesta because of my Real Madrid bias.

I like Isco is he worth 40m? Not really tbh as much as i dislike him for being a **** id have bought shrek or waited til next week and splash out on a Reus/Lewandowski/Kroos/Modric

That's it for me, with the money floating around that how on earth Kroos or Reus weren't purchased is head scratching.

Isco is a great player.

But as Nando says, it's value for money on him that is questionable.

After hearing all of these opinions as much as Isco is quality and I rate him highly I'm thinking that I have made a mistake now :/

It's not a mistake he's still a quality player admittedly you could of bought higher quality but you have a good chance of getting a high value lawyer to rectify this somewhere along the line if he's not getting as good as you want ratings.

If you were going to fork that much out id have seriously considered letting Griezmann go

If Transfermarkt wasn't the purchase method then bringing in Isco would be a good thing, his value on there though is vastly inflated. I'd be hoping to get a lawyer on him and trade up.

Yeah mistake might of been the wrong word because I like him but what ive learnt in this league is that the players that I like won't nessecarily get the ratings that I think they might just because I like them.

Anyone got a cheap CB for sale?

Depends on how cheap Nando?
