A happy life, a recall to the Germany squad, loads of kids to keep him company once he retires, and a fountain of youth to keep his natural good looks for ever.

Miky if verratti comes my way in a deal then we might agree something

Well Verratti is going nowhere so I guess that deal died

What for Thiago?

Can't see anyone really who would persuade me to sell him from your team at the moment mate, sorry.

It wasn't meant in a bad way I'm interested in certain players just I want to keep Thiago and I can't see any deals adding up.

Looked good to me mate

Just remember I may be on paternity leave when my weeks come round, so if I am, please swap me for another week xx

First week, Miky v me with Azzy voting. Well I'm buggered sideways there.

Hopefully not by one of your players. Richard 'Peter Beardsley' Hudson isn't a nickname you want catching on.

Only thing I can see that may need to be changed is that it's the same matches people are voting on in the first and second halves of the season.

Didn't think about that

I'll amend it in some way this afternoon

Just swap 1st & 5th, 2nd & 4th & 3rd & 6th around.

You know Poopie is going down when Steven Fletcher starts singing "The fresh prince of bel air"

I love reading that Crawley Town's first fixtures are Accrington away, Ebbsfleet at home, Real Madrid away

Make sure you keep your fans in check when you come to the Santiago Bernabeu to play Real Madrid marky #dontmesswiththebigboys

Team page up

Good job our income isn't based on gate receipts.

Nope, it's based on government funding

Nadz get your page up when you can buddy

It's already been up half an hour miky. Look at the great offers I'm getting from azzy

Whoops my bad

Yeah it's done, will update the draft pages later but you can add Brandt and Trebs can add Daley Blind.

Can we just have 1 section for the team pages rather than 2? Annoying trying to navigate!

Looking at the teams, we should change the leagues around so we have a men's league and an U21s league.

And a veterans for yours?

Nah being MLS players, His side play walking football nowadays.

They probably need a bell in the ball so they know it's near them.

Future Man United right back Donald Love making his full debut tonight. He's like Dani Alves but he can defend.

I might have a go at seeing how good a squad you could build from those players not selected so far. Reckon it would be a very competitive one!

LVG surely getting the sack now.

Woodward is a smarmy little toad, he's too worried about how it'll look on him to sack both his appointments mid season

I'd laugh but I genuinely have no idea who they lost to.

Not a chance he'll get sacked mid way, like Bam said Woodward don't want his reputation suffering sacking aanother manager during the season.

I supported LVG until we lost to Norwich, it's an absolute joke the way we're playing not only losing but getting outperformed by teams we shouldn't. We weren't this bad under Moyes.
