Furious League - Homepage 4

You can say whatever you like in your tactics, but you also need to have players capable of carrying out your instructions.

Jadson + Capel ...almost signed on the dotted line...opinions?

Fan - only players for sale at Sunderland:

Cudicini
Ogbonna
Angeleri
Bramble
Riveros
Riviere

Possibly Arteta and Cardozo for a big offer

selling E.Torres

But Nick can counter that by telling his keeper not to concede any shots and Modric to score more goals then your team put together times 5. Yo dis leage is sikkkk.

Is Jadson good enough to replace Augusto? Does his reputation take a blow playing in Russia?

But I will counter that by telling my strikers to shoot where the goalkeeper isn't and to make Modric face the wrong way, so all his shots are at his own goal

was it not semi finals of CL they reached last season?

--------------Viviano-----------
L'tsteiner-Bonucci-Agger-Monreal
-----------Rolfes--Vidal---------
Kalou---------Jadson------Capel
--------------Negredo----------

Happy with that

What's happening!!

Just popping on quickly, having to use my phone for now but could struggle to post tactics for this week. Have I missed much? What was my score from
Week 2?

Fro, "tay tight and mark Benzema out of the game" that is literally what people write tho.
I didn’t say my fullback are the best at defending, why would I tell my wingers to double up and help them if I thought they were the best in the world?? By telling them to stay back, or drop back and cover decreases the risk of vulnerability, do it not?. Is this not the case? Writing tactics is a massive waste of time as I feel half your Flip don’t ready them. I got busted at work when doing my tactics to hand in the week I was playing you Afro, from now on I’m writing 10 lines and no more, maybe people will read them then and they may serve their purpose.

Flip !!! Im not even talking about Glen Johnson, my fullbacks can defend. Take it not many of you watched Coentrão in the Europa League last season, he can defend just fine, his attacking play is great tho. Just like Patrice Evra and dont tell me he cant defend. VDW is actually quite a solid RB.
Next thing you know you'll say Rafael and Fabio will get exposed as there better attacking. Flip me Rafael took Frank Ribery out of the match while he was on the pitch while being able to burst down the flack and support an attack.

Your logic of if there better at attacking they cant defend is a load of Poopie

Flip waste of Flip time !!

Calm down Nick. I think most of us old guard read the tactics and have a decent enough knowledge of players to be able to put the two together.

I trust it you did not watch VDW for Ajax last year then if you are not comparing him to Glenn Johnson, because that's exactly who he was like.

And Fabio is a better defender than Rafael IMO. Rafael is good and will get better, but even he has his moments. Remember that "tackle of Gamst Pederson" where Blackburn didn't get a penalty

Andy - week 2 you won, week 3 you drew - subject to you checking my calculations.

You are joint top, second only on GS to the champions elect - Everton

Nick what happend when you got caught doing tactics?

An please do 10 lines of tactics this week, maybe people will be able to understand.

Andy are you on holiday from work or something?

Anybody who is buying players from foreigns on the understanding they are paying cash upfront + future installment when they have it. Have to post on the foreigns page when they have removed it from the budget.
So far we have Nick, Nadeem & Fan on that list.

Afro, when ive seen VDW hes looked fine defensivley, in the World Cup qualifiers and few other matches.
i find it stupid just because a fullback strength is attacking its assumed he cant defend. IMO the only fullback that really cant defend IS Glen Johnson.

Viva, I got called into my bosses office and recieved a warning (more so a slap on the wrist, im very valuable to the company I work for)

Who said anything about "assuming" he can't defend. I am basing my assessment of what I have seen of him this season.

And I'm not saying he can't defend. He can defend, but he is not a great defender IMO A lot of top class wingers will cause him a lot of trouble. You telling him to sit back and mark the winger - yes it will improve you defensively, but it still won't be good enough to cope with the best wingers. Doubling up, will help further, but then you lose some cutting edge going forward.

The same goes for Coentrao.

I was on holiday last week smarts but this week it's Internet problems at work. And for some reason the Internet at home, works with the ps3 but won't allow my laptop to connect to it wirelessly

i paid the £1m for Negredo after 1st game, I took it out my budget

No thanks Afro - Rate Vidal much higher than Parker sorry

Ins:- Jadson, Capel & Wickham
Out:- Augusto & Nene

Happy with that

El skinto now tho lol

How about Parker + Aurier + £3m for Vidal?

What happend in the office Nick? Did your boss ask why are you making tactics for? An that you believe you are manager of Spurs lol. That must have been akward.

Boss: So Nick you play fantasy make believe games where you and your buddys pretend you are managers of Premier League teams and buy players with pretend monies lol an then you fight over tactics lol.

Nick: Yes boss (Going red)

Boss: But Nick, can you not see that Coentrao and VDW are leaving your two sluggish CBs exposed at the back.

Nick: You flippin muppet. Read my tactics, I asked them to stay back.

Boss: Right, that's an official warning, you soloist

Afro, I won my last match so I got a £3m bonus. I owe £3m to the Rolando payment so all square OK??

Andy, you on PS3 tongiht? Ive got my Mrs round but ill try get on, will facebook you

Nick: Yeah whatever it's pure sickness, I'll make a deal with you but then back off because I'm scared.

Boss: Have you ever met these so called managers you call friends?
Nick: No, but my mum is quite popular amongst them!

Nah, boss is a ok lad, only 2 years older then me, loves football, sports etc.

He had a look on the forum, asked who this Viva Tinkywinky.

Viva, if you want to sign my first team player you will have to pay over the odds. Everyone knows that.

Poping out for lunch, hummmm what to get

Boss: It's payrise time and at the time of your warning we agreed no payrise

Nick: I want 1%

Boss: But we agreed nothing. I'll see if I can get you 1% because i'm okay and i like football sports etc

Nick: I want 2%

Boss: But we did agree on nothing and you are just upping the increase

Nick: 3%

Boss: I'll leave it thanks.

I actually got a 14% rise last Nov. Due another one soon.

Anybody hear from Manchester???

nick is a sky lil punk.
Who do you rate better at lb chivu or clichey.

Chivu every time.

Clichy is average.

neither are fantastic, id say clcihy just, as im not sure chivu would be getting consistent first team football at inter and that may count against him

lol Afro that was brilliant.

So is the Tranquil man back?

I may get on tonight but supposedly going for drinks after work meeting at Revolution, buy a round get the same round again for £1 the next time you get drinks so it's quite tempting

smarts i paid the full installments for bruno alves yesterday. I confirmed it on transfer confirmation.

Any CF for sale at £7m?

Erick Torres
Kolbeinn Sigthorsson

Emmanuel Riviere

spagbonlahor

ill give you Sigthorsson + £2.5m for Spag?

No not intrested in them sorry.

Fan Gilhaus wrote:ill give you Sigthorsson + £2.5m for Spag?

nah sorry fan, wouldnt use him and im only looking to sell spag for straight cash

Afro you've taken Blackburn off the page.

Not sure how that happened.

Corrected

Afro when do you think we'll re-start the league? Another 3 seasons?

I'm badly in need of a Centre forward.

What is that about lol

Did anyone watch dispatches the other night, how to buy a football club??

the league title is between spurs, liverpool and everton to an extent.

Who remembers the czech footballer Jan Koller? Does he still play?

Why would we ever reset it?

Or are you Mouse in disguise

I expect Spurs to win the title with ease, I would be shocked if they don't win. Wiel and Contrao are probably the best fullback pairing in the league, they have so much quality, Modric, VDV and so on. The only solid game they have left is Stoke.

So we can start all over again Afro, and maybe the league runner won't get the best team again! I think we have to start again one day to keep it fresh, GAL died because we kept going on and on. Maybe in another 3 or 4 seasons.

Hey leave Mouse alone, he is a badaman who ain't whipped by no wimenz!!!

I say aim to get to the end of each season and see how we all feel.

start again? my god that is boring
