First topic message reminder :

Anyone selling a LW?

That is true. To be honest the last two weeks we've had a lot of money coming in, and it's getting easy to sign all the big players. By the end of the season I'd expect anyone worth having to be in the league.

For the next league when that happens I want to do what we have done in the past of choosing a real life team and you have that squad to start with but a limit on how much it's worth etc again.

So you have to build your squad more and just keep similar rulings to this league.

Miky what do you think of Dominic Solanke? Is he better than Akinfenwa?

Anyone care if run a euro 2016 sweepstake kind of thing?

Go for it. He's decent Nadz I think you could have saved hour mod you and bought better quality eventually though.

I'm up for a Euro sweep stake.

Nadeem how far you got on Dark Souls? I haven't touched it since April.

There's 24 teams. Shall I stick it up on the Footie boards and then do a draw once it's full?

Yeah sure.

There we go, Id suggest making a new one for site hero

I clocked it ages ago. Just waiting for the dlc to release now.

They were doing a euro sweepstake on the lstd league but they didn't include me! And than they have the cheek to offer me Switzerland as my team when I asked to join! Shambles I tell you.

Not a bad team to have Ive added you both

Jonathan Tah called up to the Germany squad

Bailly confirmed

Yeah Rudiger got crippled, Hummels may be out aswell apparently.

Now all we need is for Iniesta to get injured so Isco gets called up.

Nadz, you alright mate.
Any idea when we can expect results?

And if you want me to have words with the Ja lot I will.

Results have been up since Monday evening trebs! Miky's even updated the table.

Cheers Nadz, I hadn't realised

Let me know if anything needs sorting with them JA lot.

I don't care about them. You can sell me Casemiro + Pepe to make me feel better though.

At least it proves Rudiger > Tah.

Well Rudiger had already been capped 10 times and has 3 years more experience than Tah. Going forward I'd expect both to be making the squad, that is if Rudiger doesn't become the new Badstuber with the ACL tear.

----------------------------------Buffon--------------
Carvajal----------Ramos--------Varane---------Marcelo
----------------------------------Kouyate---------------------------
--------------------Kovacic-----------------Isco-------------------
Deulofeu--------------------------------------------------Montero
----------------------------------Solanke---------------------------

A well balanced team imo. Solid in defence and deadly attacking wise. Thoughts?

Defensively great (despite the usual jibes about Real), going forward though it's really not leaping out at me. Though it'lll still score more v Olly than Griezmann, Dybala and Martial.

I think it's only in strike where my main weakness is. Isco and Kovacic are more than good enough in the centre and Deulofeu and Montero bring PACE to the side.

If you were able to get Vazquez off me he would really slot into your side.

I just don't wanna lose him for Montero.

What about Isco + Deulofeu = Diego Costa + Vazquez?

I think the problem for both of them is that they're both bit part for their team, sure the team in questions is the current CL winners but neither are cementing their place and both are possibly being moved on for not making the grade.

I would like Kovacic to be given more chances next season if he stays at Real. With Modric nearly 31 Kovacic would be the perfect man to fill his shoes.

The sweepstake draw is now done if everyone could get tournament winner & golden boot predictions in by tomorrow that would be handy

Pjanic off to Juve for 32m euros.. How are they so good in the transfer market?!

Where is that being reported?

DiMarzio stating it

Does make you wonder if Pogba is on his way then.

But where to? Madrid? United maybe? City even..

Obviously he's going to Real. He worships the ground Zidane walks on and is a superstar signing, which Perez creams over. Why would he go back to United after the disrespectful way they treated him? And he doesn't want to play for a team like city who are fueled by Arab money, it's against his religion.

A footballer's only religion is money Nadz, don't be so naive.

To be honest I don't really see the connection between Pjanic arriving and Pogba leaving. Pretty different as players.

Not sure Pogba would be that keen on a return to United. His exit wasn't exactly smooth. Chelsea would make the most sense. Fabregas is very lightweight at CM, Matic was fairly crap last year. Conte signed him at Juve didnt he?. Arsenal of course would make all the sense in the world, but Wengers already signed Xhaka.

Also Juventus have sold Pererya to Watford to fund it.

Marchisio is out till November and Khedira can't be relied on.

Still think he'll move though.

Anyone fancy joining me and Nando in the V2 Forum Fantasy Football?
http://eurofantasy.uefa.com/en/fantasy16/leagues

I joined the fantasy league trebs My team is

Neuer
Pepe Ramos Boateng
Motta Alli Modric Pogba
Griezmann Bale Ronaldo

Should I replace Motta with Renato Sanchez?

Why would you pick a DM at all in a fantasy league

Feck knows I didn't have enough money left and Motta for 4.5mill was the only decent option. I'll just replace him with Sanches. What team did you pick nando?

I went

Patricio
Bellerin,Rodriguez,Hector
Xhaka,Nainggolan,Modric,Ozil
Griezmann, Ronaldo, Dzyuba

Probably change Xkaka & Nainngolan out before it starts tho.

I got Umtiti on the bench so can go to 4 atb if I want. I swapped Modric for Kroos. Got a feeling Kroos will get a couple of goals this tournament.

Might swap Alli for either Sane or Coman but don't know how much they'll play.

Is there a code for the league?
Do most people just get a pants 2nd keeper?
