The Lotion League Locker Room

First topic message reminder :

Bale out for up to 4 months Oh well tis the price you pay for being the second best player in the world (number 1 is CR7 before you lot say it's the midget munchkin messi)

I'm more inclined to believe it from Sky than other websites.

Except it says that Wenger has offered £56m for someone, which completely discredits it.

Based on the players in the 20m to 30m price bracket, Belotti wouldn't look out of place amongst them. Its only when you get into the 30m+ bracket that you start to get a real step up in quality.

I thought sky were the ones reporting the £56m offer?

They were.

My point was that would normally make me believe it more, if it didn't involve Wenger spending £56m

It was a Torino CEO? that claimed it not Sky Arsenal denied it as usual We won't buy a forward

1) Because money
2) Because Welbz is back and that's like a whole new player etc...

Similarly, Hero and Outside of the Boot are in a loop where they both use each others webpages as the bible of up and coming players

Their 100 Ones to watch for 2017 is being done at the moment, my fave time of the year.

Oh dear he's going to be unbearable when that comes out On the plus side got my hipster keeper in on the cheap

It's half way through the Midfielders at present, defenders and keepers already out!

Which reminds me.... to Foreigns

ballsy.

Heard a whisper on him being on the move to a really big club this month.

Worth a risk at that price, otherwise he just becomes a £320k lawyer sale and I've lost £20k max

Tactics for week 9 are up.

I know he was linked to Bayern but signed a new deal in the summer so shall be interesting.

Hero's boy Donnarumma has made it on youtubes trending section

I'll try and get some injuries up for week 10 later.

Can anyone do Lawyers?

I'll do lawyers, can someone draw mine

Lindelof for you.

Cheers, lawyers up

Now whats the chances Lindelof gets the price rise

I've been the same the last few weeks (and again this week with Dembele), all are due a rise but it's not happened yet.

Indeed im pondering over Ake cos done well at Bournemouth now returned to Chelsea at their request so could be worth holding onto.

I got bored of my Fifa Africa side so moved onto Seria A for the fun of it (i make money from the weekend league to do it so all good)

Hope Ake actually gets game time after his recall.

I don't see the point of recalling him tbh if he wasn't cos they have cover tbh. Rather odd

He was absolute quality for Bournemouth, with Zouma looking to be back very soon and Chelsea trying to get in Kessie then there's less and less need for his recall, as you say an odd recall.

I imagine Kessie may be a summer buy considering ACON so could see him playing DM now Mikel's been shipped out to China.

John Obi

My Seria A Squad is done

---------------Handanovic
Florenzi -- Miranda -- Manolas -- Alex Sandro
Salah --- Pjanic -- Nainggolan --- Perisic
------------IF Immobile -- Dybala

Bench: Abate, Koulibaly, Asamoah, Banega, Keita, Niang, Eder
Spares - Eriksen, Raffael, Zaha, Bony, Vertonghen - Just players i don't use often but full of contracts

Nice team!

i bought all that for the price of 1 Aubameyang who's gash (had him for African side didn't go well)

Dybala much better 5 goals 2 games

Week 10 injuries are up

damn you

Anyone fancy giving me advice on a transfer via pm?

sure

I hope people rate Kante on here...

Very highly

New Year Squad Size Checks

Miky - 25
Hero - 25 - Without the new guy so he cannot play.
Afro - 22
Nadeem - 16
Trebs - 23
Bam - 24
Fernando - 24

Does everyone get £2m bonus since the deadline was moved to Monday?

Nadz still struggling with that small squad then ..

As good as it is having three people doing predictions, it is a bit of a shame that it's such big gaps between games sometimes. Like I don't get a game this week either.

Think it's something we should look into to maintain the system and have more games for next season. Perhaps only the head voter missed out and the games involving the other two people can end in draws (1 win each?)

The idea was to give people time off once in while no?

I've not removed Caldara yet who Vallejo will replace.

Fair enough.

Swapped over now

When are we likely to get results? Would like to have them before doing tactics for this week

I've sent in predictions so not really sure what's happening

I've been extremely busy at work this week, so results should be tonight. I apologise but hope you can all understand.

No worries bud

Results are up, sorry for the delay, everyone can add £2m.

Only got tactics from bambino so far.

I'll get some in tonight Nadz, I've been shocking this week in terms of the league, will improve for the coming weeks though.

French league TM Update - Wylan Cyprien has had a big upgrade

Thomas Lemar from 11.9 to 17
Kylian Mbappe from 3.4 to 8.5


Happy with both of those.
