Had him done too but considered him a walcott

I'm hoping with some of the speed levels in League 2 that he'll pillage defenses.

Needed a new DM. Spent £630k on one. Bit ballsy for these budgets

And £90k on a new keeper.

He was on my list Marky, I needed a new dm after your match ha

I’ve smashed my budget on two players who look to have really good stats this week but Nadz pulling out the stops and spanking 1.3m on Lainez is impressive

Tactics ready to go. As if I've made 4 changes from a side that won 6-1

Lainez was on my target list, though raising the funds for him was something I'd be looking at in about 7 weeks if I didn't buy anyone else
#shoestring

Is it too late to ask if assist stats will be noted this season?

Echo what Hero said....loads about that value but need to prioritise.

Plus it doesn't help when you do your picks, search on sofifa, and then find a massive one. FFS

I thought Declan Rice would be a good acquisition, £13m

Just re-watching my first game to pick up some last-minute tactical ideas. Then come the big changes.

Prior to the draft I had my eye on Sergio Reguilón as a nice little investment but figured it would be foolish to spend 900k on a 64 rated LB at this stage.

A couple of days later he rose to £4.5m which would have been a team transforming lawyer offer

You wouldn't have got a lawyer at the new price until the prices are unfrozen, at the end of the first season probably.

On a similar vein, I was all set to buy Gedson Fernandes till he rose to 71 in our version of FIFA. His TM value has gone from 810k to 13.5m!!

Just realized it wasn't my striker injured so panicked for no reason
Fortunately I didn't buy a striker anyway!

Four domestics done by me already, guess this FIFA league really does have something other leagues didn't!

Tactics in, signings done, budget spent. Time to prepare for Friday's edition of sheep.

CM - Jordan Houghton - £90k - 62 *MK Dons
RM/LM - Lawson D'Ath - £90k - 62 *MK Dons

ANybody want either of these guys before I release

I'll give you 50k for Houghton?

Hero wrote:I'll give you 50k for Houghton?

If you meet his release value you can have him

If someone is able to check the week 1 games, I can start to track assists alongside goalscorers

Players available and the simple, non-negotiable prices they can be had for:

Luke Prosser - £110k - 65 *Colchester United
Sergio Akieme - £120k - 67 *Rayo Vallecano
Harry Pell - £110k - 65 *Colchester United (INJ)
Courtney Senior - £50k - 64 *Colchester United
Ryan Gondoh - £5k - 58 *Colchester United

This is where releases being limited screws the league.
I've bought my 2 allotted foreigns for the week. I'd happily buy some of the players off Azzy now but cannot as I'm at 27 players atm and can only release 2. There's domestic transfers that could be made and can't go through.

I still don't see the problem tbh. Its no different than squad limits restricting domestics.

I get the frustration Hero, but then it ensures the league goes on for longer.

Would be silly if you could just release 5 players a week and replace them. All your squad building done in five weeks.

Anyone want any squad filler to get them up to 25 for injuries next week?

I'd meet you halfway and give you 100k for akieme.

I'd rather just sell for £99k to Lawyers and stop you improving your team tbh. That's why he's only available for more than his Lawyers fee, as there are few LBs that good for so cheap.

Sell him to lawyer's then. That's fine, I hadn't seen the offer.

Do you not need to check with your boyfriends first before withdrawing an offer?

He's in charge of withdrawal

I didn't think you could sell on a draft/foreign that quickly anyway

Draft picks are fine. It's Foreigns. Not sure which one that is anyway. But everyone in your squad is eligible for a lawyers offer.

I got one for Kyle McFadzean the day after I confirmed him last week

Keeping the little men down

Have whizzed through the games and noted down all the assists.

Will add it to the Excel file and setup a page tomorrow

I have added this page into the Match Day section

Morning ladies. Great to see Klopp humbled last night. Shame Kane rescued Poch, but Spurs still won't make it out of the group. United's turn for a pasting tonight

Agreed Azzy - great to see Jurgen Flopp and ol Fraudettino upto their old tricks.

I thought Spurs would have a chance if Inter lost, but their draw with Barca makes it even less likely.

Spurs need to beat Inter next time, but even then will probably need to beat Barca away final game (or just hope Inter don't win at home to PSV).

Fraudettino, sounds like something out of Starbucks

Never bought into the whole 'support English teams in Europe' thing. I hate all teams, some more than others, and only ever want Albion to win any game. I thought it was because I hated Fergie so much, but that torch has been passed on to The Not-so-Special One, The German Hobo, and The Tinkerman-Who-Never-Gets-Called-Tinkerman-Because-The-Media-Love-To-Blow-Smoke-Up-His-Jacksy (Pep, in case you're wondering).

I'm also whole heartedly in support of hoping other English teams in Europe embarrass themselves. None of this Brexit attitude supporting the teams of the yellow toothed tramp or the chain smoking Danny DeVito in West London just because they happen to spend a lot of time on the same island as me

Football should always be dog-eat-dog, except when on pre-season tour in South Korea, and any person supporting a rival team just because they're playing in Europe, isn't a real fan.

The equivalent of a Liverpool fan supporting United in Europe is of an England fan supporting Scotland. It would never happen, and should never happen.

Who's up for more domestic deals? I'm selling if anyone is buying.

I'm keen for deals.
Will be getting tactics in during the next hour or so, which would mean anything that gets agreed is to go through after this gameweek.

Same here, my tactics are already in Trebs

See from an English perspective I get not supporting other English teams in Europe. But as a Rangers fan, it’s depressing watching Scottish team lose to plumbers from Gibraltar because I know it means any time we qualify for Europe we’ll face a season starting in June with a few rounds of playing Faroe fishermen and Lithuanian mutants before reaching the dizzy heights of the Europa league groups.

Not that I haven’t bloody loved Celtic getting tore a new bumhole the past couple years by PSG and the like

Nine sets of tactics in already which is fantastic, I'll try and get some games streamed this evening (wife permitting).

Morecambe v Grimsby Town
Cambridge Utd v Forest Green
Crawley Town v Carlisle United
Colchester v MK Dons
Crewe Alexandra v Mansfield Town
Cheltenham Town v Newport County
Lincoln City v Exeter City
Macclesfield v Bury

9 sets, but only 2 from the same game

Yeah lol, I typed the sentence about streaming games before I then did the check on what I could play!

I don't mind seeing Arsenal and Spurs doing well in Europe. But not City or Liverpool. Chelsea I'm kind of torn on.

But I think if I supported a club outside of the top group then my opinion would change, i think I'd support all English clubs

Nah, I'd want United to do well. Jesse lingard needs my support.

Liverpool would never get my support, City I really find it hard to hate due to the players they have. Arsenal I enjoy it when they feck up. Spurs I have a soft spot for as they were my dad's team.

I generally want teams I find interesting to do well. So I want City through. Liverpool are interesting when they win and when they lose so I don’t mind.

Man United under Mourinho are AIDS and I hate Spurs, who are just a successful version of a Jose team.
