The Homeless SZS fantasy league thread

[Jimmy McNulty]

Two of the three players didn't even play for him at Molde

eikrem, diouf and moeller daehli all played for molde

Shows you how much interest I'm taking in Cardiff now.

[Jofrey]

Price rises...

Hazard, Suarez, Lallana, JRod, Lukaku, Ade

not too bothered about the Southampton boys but hoping Ade keeps quiet.

Ramsey and Ageuro back for my wildcard next week

[ChiangMai noon]

i think ramsey has shot his load

expect poor return for second half of season

[Jofrey]

i think ramsey has shot his load

maybe....or maybe not....

think i could do Negredo - Aguero - Yaya for the Cardiff massacre.

that would be very tasty.

[Jimmy McNulty]

I agree on Ramsey. Not to say his performances will have a downturn, but that the goals/assists will be coming more from elsewhere.

[Jofrey]

Walcott out....Giroud misfiring....

Ramsey could yet return to haunt the top of the points table.

Walcott out....Giroud misfiring....

Podolski and another quality forward in ...

Just done the wildcard.

Rooney seemingly struggling to make it even for Chelsea. And he'll be in the deeper role in a struggling side anyway. And...Chelsea at the bridge.

Didn't make sense to keep him on this weekend.

[Jofrey]

Podolski and another quality forward in ...

Podolski is totally unreliable. not a sniff of another forward so far..

[cyrille]

Podolski is totally unreliable

He's played less than three hours of football. He has the fourth highest ppg of any forward in the league.

It took Ramsey about three years to fully recover from his last injury.

not a sniff of another forward so far..

Early days, and Wenger is pretty good at keeping things under wraps for the players he really wants.

[Jimmy McNulty]

I actually like the idea of bringing Van Persie in somehow having never had him, but have no idea when he'll be back.

[cyrille]

His price is just absurd, surely?

[Jimmy McNulty]

His price is just absurd, surely?

13.6 but should he start to perform again, having him and Suarez in the same team?

I've worked out a way of getting him in and not really hurting my side, bringing Noone, Declan John, J. Rodriguez and Mannone in for Distin, Mignolet, Remy, Lukaku, and Janujaj.

Just pie in the sky anyway as there's no sign of him coming back and he may not even be happy there at the moment. May sulk out the season. I'm obviously talking myself out of it somewhat here. Good way of bringing Aguerro in though...

[ChiangMai noon]

i have left 2.9 million in the bank for the aguerro transfer

can see myself rising to the top by monday and then aguerro back next week....happy days

[Jofrey]

recover from his last injury.

that was a broken leg though wasn't it?

the current injury is minor in comparison.

[Jofrey]

can see

can see you crying into your teabags on monday.

all it takes is a couple of nice injuries.

[cyrille]

13.6 but should he start to perform again...

Well his ownership has fallen from about 50 per cent to, what is it now, about 15?
So I suppose he could be the ace in the pack, and at that price he won't be someone loads of managers will get in after one good return.
But with that fundamentally flawed midfield...
Also he has previous for sitting out the season injured.

All in all, it would certainly be a brave move.

I have to think that ManYoo, regardless of that midfield, will still grind out the wins. I think they'd have to have both Van Persie and Rooney in behind him back though. If Moyes can actually get those wingers that his entire footballing philosophy depends on him to actually be able to deliver some crosses as well....The stats I read recently regarding the accuracy of crosses by Young and Valencia make for very very very grim reading if you're a ManYoo fan.

Where the fuck is Nani as well? They gave him a contract extension recently. Can't see that helping in offloading him.

[ChiangMai noon]

Where the fuck is Nani as well?

broken

due back soonish

[Jimmy McNulty]

Moyes training regime strikes again. It's like the fucking Somme at Carrington.

I've just seen that in addition to Steve Round, Moyes's coaching staff consists of Jimmy Lumsden. He must be in his 70s by now. He's bringing all the nous he accumulated with his playing stints at Clydebank, Morton, and Cork Hibernians as well as those 2 years in charge of Bristol City a quarter of a century ago to the table. Just the man to get Anderson and Nani back on track.

That does surprise me though it seems to me that ManYoo's injury list seems to feature a lot more of their 'first team' players than most.

Thoughts On Captaincy?

we all know who will be captain.

[Jofrey]

Anderson and Nani back on track.

they should be sent to the glue factory.
