Ight so every weekend counts as a match so to speak. Once the first game of the weekend starts you cannot make any changes.

Goals earn a player 3 points I believe. Assists earn 1 point. Playing past a certain amount of game time earns I believe 2 points. Cards, OGs knock points off players.

Defenders and GKs earn 3 points for clean sheets. Your captain earns double points. If a player doesnt play then they are auto subbed. At the end of the week there is a ToTW and if you have a player on that team in your squad you get a good point bonus.

Its been a year so dont quote me on points values and I may have missed something but thats the gist.

I actually found it pretty easy putting together my EPL fantasy squad. But i agree with literally everyone being overpriced

They wanted to give fantasy users the authentic experience.

3-2-3-2?

That's new

Every formation is divided by four segments these days.

In 20 years you'll probably have formations like 2-1-2-3-1-1

I've tinkered with mine numerous times and haven't pulled the trigger.

Will only finish it later on in August sometime.

But I definitely struggled a bit cause I had to drop key players due to their price

I seriously don't think Ronaldo understood 85% of the words coming out of Lil'Waynes mouth. But Ronaldo saying "Young Money" at the end

i felt so awkward just watching this CR7 had NO idea what anyone was saying lmao

 

[nomadicsole21]

So what made Ronaldo sign with Young Money Sports or whatever the hell they named themselves again? I dont think Ronaldo even needs further exposure/marketing in the US. Even if he truly wanted to, there is way better options out there.

So what's the deal with Madrid keeper dilemma?? One day they're saying Casillas is leaving (possibly to Arsenal) another day that Lopez is leaving, Navas signing...

 

[hugebird]

Would anyone be interested in a Bottom 10 Premier fantasy league? You can only pick players from the 3 promoted teams and the bottom 7 that weren't relegated last year. Did it last year and it was challenging but very fun. If anyone is interested let me know and I'll set up the league.

AS Sport is reporting the club is getting rid of Lopez with Navas' arrival. Lopez is also rumored to be coming to Chelsea...

Looks like Dani Alves has been told by Enrique that he should find another club as Barca intends to sign Colombian Juan Cuadrado away from Fiorentina...

A reunion with Thierry Henry?!?!?

Brazilian site UOL is reporting Ronaldinho's people are meeting with the NY Red Bulls... He's also rumored to be a target for Orlando City...

that sounds fun, but can you do it on espn or something since my premier league team is already done on premierleague.com

That goalkeeping thatz some * my highschool team would do

Word is Madrid has opened the door for Lopez to leave and Navas will be joining Los Blancos by next week.

I don't know how the situation with Navas coming in will be, just more drama imo. He becomes our best keeper, but then you have the saint Iker still.

Unless Carlo goes the same route as last season where one plays for the league and the other plays Spanish Cups/Champions League. I wasn't really a fan of that.

Looks like the Cristian Ansaldi to Atleti is official. On a season long loan from Zenit. Very solid replacement for Filipe Luis...

That poll.

Leichester

 

[Kimchi Papi]

Huh, Mike Meyers is a 'Pool fan... He went to the 'Pool vs City game in NYC.

I watched a little bit of that game again before I deleted it from my dvr, Stevie G made some awful mistakes again which lead to both of City's goals.





Sport announced that Enrique has brought back Pep like rules. I just hope he lights a fire under La Pulga's *** & some of the others...

Pique is a lost cause though...

1. Fines return from 1000 to 6000 euros
2. Must arrive one hour before training
3. Prohibited from going out for 48 hours before matches
4. A serious infraction can result in expulsion

Ochoa to Malaga is a good look.

I read an article this morning about this. He's truly bringing back the Guardiola discipline and adding his own piece to it. Also the players have said that the two a days have been rough but this should bring the boys back to that hunger stage we've been missing since Pep left. He also said no Snowboarding, Bike Riding and that social media would be checked to not be giving the club a bad image. I'm all for it. Can't wait for the season to start.

Opps, my bad bro. I knew I missed someone.

I don't think I can edit polls.(?)

But City weren't winning anyways.

 

[atransta]

Damn Arsenal has a commanding lead

Yea man, where the **** are The United fans at?

I thought they'd be past 10 votes.

Word. I knew most guys here were gunners but not by this much.
