The Homeless SZS fantasy league thread

[cyrille]

Well the firmino transfer justified, but Liverpool look far too flat for this 'false nine' lark. Looks like a job for ... Steven Caulker?

[cyrille]

Surely there's going to be a huge jump for all twenty clubs next year. Though I have no idea how they're calculating this. I assume it's income as opposed to money in a piggy bank because just about every club is in some degree of debt.

West Brom are pretty much debt free, and the wage bill relatively low. The Chairman let slip the master plan a couple of seasons ago, when in an unusually loquacious mood: premier league income and championship outgoings.

That went down like a lead balloon...

[Jofrey]

Walker has lubed me up and taken me fer a ride.

[Jimmy McNulty]

The Leicester train remains firmly on the tracks.

[cyrille]

Yep - Vardy's goal summed it up. Most players would have taken a touch and flubbed it into touch. Vardy hammers the thing first time and it screams into the net.

And the reason given that they won't win the title has been that they concede too many goals. No longer true.

Lukaku to Vardy looks like it will attract a lot of managers if he doesn't score tonight...

[Dillinger]

Vardy has Citeh and Arsenal away next

But they're pretty good on the counter are Leicester

[cyrille]

That's it - he's pretty much fixture proof.

Only thing is FTs are priceless right now.

[Dillinger]

Four teams have a blank play week soon, but then they'll have a yet to be appointed dgw

[Jofrey]

Vardy has Citeh and Arsenal away next

could score well.

[cyrille]

The team finishing bottom next season gets 99 million quid and 64 million in parachute payments.

Last season Bayern Munich banked 54 million.

Guardiola has clearly been taking notes.

[cyrille]

Meanwhile I have nyom and targett not starting, and wollschield, lukaku and evans injured.

[cyrille]

So has this thread died?

[Jimmy McNulty]

Fantasy itself has gotten a little stagnant though hasn't it?

My team is almost identical to Joffers. Thought I'd stolen a march the other week with Arnie transfer and subsequent tally but Joffers had him too.

I'm getting a couple of Jacks in.

[Jimmy McNulty]

Though there's a lot of mileage in Arsenal bottling it chat I suppose.

[Jofrey]

My team is almost identical to Joffers.

very similar to Max's team too (in first spot)

watched the arnie goal go in and knew he would get him in immediately....

already made my first transfer of the week and considering the merits of another for a hit. probably be arnie out again if i go for it.

[cyrille]

The last game week has to be the flattest ever at this stage of the season.
Max looks like he's stumbling, but as in the real thing it's questionable whether anyone can do any better.
Think I'll sit on my transfer. Wanted to get Silva in for Payet but Mancs midfield is looking like it needs a clear out in the summer.

[Dillinger]

^^ gotta be Siggy ?

[Jimmy McNulty]

Siggy and Ashley Williams. Nice 19 point haul.

[Jofrey]

gotta be Siggy ?
