by Fernando Mon 18 Dec 2017, 10:39 pm

When are votes due is it tomoz like last week?

by **Hero** Mon 18 Dec 2017, 10:57 pm

I presume so?

by Fernando Mon 18 Dec 2017, 11:09 pm

Cool ill do them in the mornin'

by **Afro** Mon 18 Dec 2017, 11:20 pm

I didn’t see Miky say it was later this week at well tbh, so I’ve been working on it being tonight.

by Marky Mon 18 Dec 2017, 11:23 pm

Until specified otherwise surely it's tonight.

by Holymiky Tue 19 Dec 2017, 12:40 am

Sorry, i have extended it to tomorrow again. Should have said when i put tactics up, knew i forgot something.

by Marky Tue 19 Dec 2017, 7:52 am

Thanks for letting me log on and vote so late before clarifying Laugh

Doesn't Fan decide the results before tactics are in?

by **Hero** Tue 19 Dec 2017, 10:06 am

And then blames it on the 'slots'

by TwisT Tue 19 Dec 2017, 10:28 am

Morning guys. I saw the first bit of Monday night football last night and what team Terry thought could beat Citeh

My question would be which team on here would have the best chance.

by Brooksey79 Tue 19 Dec 2017, 10:38 am

in terms of a combined XI?

by Holymiky Tue 19 Dec 2017, 10:42 am

Sorry Marky, I was sorting stuff out, plus its not hard to vote in my defence your honour.

by Trebs Tue 19 Dec 2017, 11:05 am

Brooksey79 wrote:in terms of a combined XI?

Not counting my own players, would probably say something like this would be the best XI to face City.

Cech
Azpilacueta Umtiti Vertonghen
Hysaj Tolisso Guerriero Alba
Asensio Belotti Silva

by TwisT Tue 19 Dec 2017, 11:05 am

No not combined, as in which actual team here.. That's also certain players playing for both sides, such as Silva for me.

I'm not expecting people to think any team really would win but which would have the best chance.....

Suppose the other question is what type of team and tactics could beat Citeh and then which one of our teams are best suited to carry it out?

The only way to beat City imo would be to do what teams like Huddersfield etc have done, and sit deep, compact the space and look to hit them on the counter and take advantage of set pieces - but obviously do it with much better players. City's defence is a bit shaky when facing pace (especially the CBs with Stones out), so i think you can score against them.

I was really surprised Spurs didn't do this, and decided to take them on by pressing/opening the game up. That's just a recipe for disaster. You can't let De Bruyne have space

by Brooksey79 Tue 19 Dec 2017, 11:14 am

is Alba in the league now? wounder he was my next target

by **Afro** Tue 19 Dec 2017, 11:24 am

I think it is tactics rather than players that would beat City. I don't think any one individual team would beat them at the moment, but if you built a hybrid team and put Trebs in charge of tactics it'd have a chance.

by **Hero** Tue 19 Dec 2017, 12:09 pm

Just doing lawyers so if you're still wanting to offload last weeks do so now.

by Fernando Tue 19 Dec 2017, 12:43 pm

If anyone wants Diaz or Dembele bid me Ok!

PS i think like Barca defending Citeh would require defending the width of the box only.

by Holymiky Tue 19 Dec 2017, 1:29 pm

I have Alba Tino

by BamBam Tue 19 Dec 2017, 2:20 pm

Hero are you doing injuries

I can if you aren't

by TwisT Tue 19 Dec 2017, 2:21 pm

Due to my foreign I'm now open to bids for Silva. Thank you

Christmas Break?

by TwisT Tue 19 Dec 2017, 2:31 pm

Olly, did you sign Malcolm or not? If so can you update your page please. Doing shopping and need to see who has who.

by Trebs Tue 19 Dec 2017, 2:32 pm

I'm considering selling both my players to lawyers. If anyone beats the offers there could be a deal.

by Fernando Tue 19 Dec 2017, 2:38 pm

He confirmed it so yeah he did Ok!

Cheers Nando, just saw. Thought he forgot and wanted to give him heads up before I nipped in.

Are you expecting him to move? Was thinking of going for him, but £12m for someone outside Europe looked a bit much

It was stubborness mate. He was 5.4m up until a week ago which I thought was a good calculated buy.

Good chance he will move to Madrid or Barca so hinges on that

by BamBam Tue 19 Dec 2017, 2:56 pm

Price rise was a while ago, I remember thinking I should have just done it afterwards

Yea be interesting to see, never seen him play but looks good

by TwisT Tue 19 Dec 2017, 3:02 pm

Yeah went up to 12.6m on Dec 7. Was peed off but stuck with it.

But you have hit the nail on the head....no one has really seen him play. If he doesn't move then it's 12m wasted.

by Fernando Tue 19 Dec 2017, 3:38 pm

Nah it's not £12m wasted just means if get a lawyer sell quickly Smile

by TwisT Tue 19 Dec 2017, 3:40 pm

I think its first time so far i have had lawyers I wanted. Laugh

Makes January fun I suppose.

by Fernando Tue 19 Dec 2017, 4:09 pm

I figured id join you in the risky ship

Bought Paulinho who's banging them in Barca & Alex Texeira who's moving back to Europe from China apparently who was quality before he left for China Laugh

by TwisT Tue 19 Dec 2017, 4:11 pm

Punts galore. Puntiful

by BamBam Tue 19 Dec 2017, 4:11 pm

Yea Paulinho has been really good

What's happening over Xmas, are we doing some sort of cup? I'm not around after Friday but will stick a team in for it if so

by **Hero** Tue 19 Dec 2017, 4:16 pm

I'm planning to...

But there's been a slight hiccup in that my Xbox blew up this morning. I'm planning on getting a new one on Friday but I can't confirm until then.

by BamBam Tue 19 Dec 2017, 4:23 pm

Surely you mean Santa is bringing your son an Xbox on Monday ahem

by **Hero** Tue 19 Dec 2017, 4:42 pm

Of course ahem

by Brooksey79 Tue 19 Dec 2017, 4:43 pm

by BamBam Tue 19 Dec 2017, 6:12 pm

by BamBam Tue 19 Dec 2017, 6:13 pm
