There was one last year, I'd set one up if there's enough interest... |

"Bargain"
It's not though, this happens every year. When you look at £ per points, it's extremely unlikely a £13m player can justify themselves. A couple of seasons ago it was aguero and people were complaining that he 'only' got 25 goals that season or there abouts |

I've passed. I have no doubt that he'll have a good season, but i prefer players under £11m as they are easier to trade based on form |

Alexander-arnold £5m

Arnautovic - £7m
Mitrovic - £6.5m
Lascelles - £5m |

"Fucking £13m for salah "
The reality is that going without Salah is very likely to be a horrible mistake that puts you in a very tricky position. He's clearly no flash in the pan (as evidenced from his time at Roma), he'll be playing same position, likely same minutes, he's scoring in pre-season, Liverpool are even improved and there's nothing that points towards rotation this early in the season. Chance are he'll hit 30 plus gials if he stays fit. So you're gambling that not only will he fail to reproduce, but that whoever you pick instead will do the business. This is a double whammy of risk, and one that's very unlikely to come off in your favour. On top of that, Salah will have almost 100% ownership in the top 500,000 quality managers, and very high in the remainder. So when you miss out on his points, which you probably will, you'll plummet like a stone. When he scores in week 1, and he likely will, everyone that doesn't own him will jump on him. This will leave you either sticking to you guns or facing a hit in Week 2. If you do stick to your guns then his price will be rising. How much will he eventually cost and how much ground will you have lost by the time you admit defeat. Basically, this is not the player to make your big gamble on. It's not worth it. If you do own him and he fails, no biggie, everyone fails. |

Ooh I’m tempted, the only thing is I tend to enthusiastically go at it for the first few weeks then lose all interest .. (much like my time on Fab, to be fair!) so I’ll sleep on it and make a decision a bit later as I don’t want to start if I won’t do it properly! Great idea though! |

Understood. But I’m very unlikely to be challenging at the top based on previous form, but will try and get in before 7pm if I can to maximise the score. |

I do better in head to head league as i tend to score reasonably well every week, but don't tend to have the players who score 4 goals once a season |

He might get injured in game 1 and then we'll all rush to sell him and lose £1m in the process! There's a lot of luck in fantasy football! |

No don't do it. Towards the end of the season there will be weeks where teams play twice. You want to save your cards for those weeks. |

Don't waste points like that, you can never predict a players form so accurately to know that it's worth sacrificing points. Essentially the player you buy has to score or keep a clean sheet to make it worthwhile. |

You'll have good weeks and bad weeks, generally you get the most points when your players are playing weaker opposition. There is no team you can pick where every week, your key players will be playing weak opposition. |

I know yeah. I guess patience is the key, not to panic buy and waste points. |

One own goal, one goal left on the subs bench that i would have gotten if Schurrle didn't come on for 2 minutes and one goal in my starting 11 |

1 off Alison. Hat trick of Mane and Salah each assisting the other and a clean sheet, not too much for me to ask surely |

I aim for 53 points a week as you'll normally finish in the top quarter of a league on that. I've exceeded that am I'm 16th |

I've never been so high in leagues as I currently am.
I'm treating ours as:
Bottom 6 relegation
Top 6 Champions league
Next two Europa League.
I'm the kind if person that wears a track suit on cup final day / Football Manager |

I've now got 2.4m in the bank and nothing to spend it on. I gave up on mahrez and schurlle. But i don't have quite enough for kane and am happy with my midfield. |
