Official Fantasy Premier League 19/20 is GO!

[Martynt74]

I've joined. Hoping to make more of an effort with my team this year.

I auto-picked for both my league and my draft team last year and finished bottom of both!

Some great selections included both Morata and Giroud, of which only 1 ever played and Morata left in January. And also having both De Gea and Ederson in goal!

Just joined! Good to see a pretty big list of members here, good luck to everyone!

As per my usual tactic, I have decided to go with expensive players who are almost guaranteed points and the rest filled with terrible players who wont even play a game this season

Did my draft league pick last night in a mates league. Forgot about it though and so got autopicked a lot. A decent team but a lot of squad players rather than first teamers

This year I'm back in...been while since I've been in the OCUK league.

Draft league was quite fun to do actually. Only 4 from work in the league, I managed to get Auba, Kane and Aguero up front!

EDIT

Can have max 16 in a league, anyone up for an official OcUK draft league? We all need to be online at the same time to build our teams up.

 

[CliffyG]

OK have setup an official OcUK Draft, log into Fantasy Footy as normal, go to the draft tab and join the private league using 415551-96853. The draft starts at 21:00 tonight so make sure you're logged in then. We'll then take it in turns to pick players (60 seconds each).

How long is it likely to take? I'll still be at work but could do it sneakily...

 

[CliffyG]

Depends on how many are in it. I can set picks to 30s max to speed it up.

 

[CliffyG]

Only 4 people in so far. I've set to 6 minimum. If we don't get enough it wont start.

I’m joining later. Wanted to get deadline day out of the way.

Was there a previous OcUK league called Ultimate League XI?

I have renewed a league and I am not entirely sure who it is but the only league I remember having more than a handful of people in the past was OcUK.

 

[CliffyG]

Yeah i think that was last years, no idea why it was called that. I've removed myself from it anyway.

Cool just need 1 more then.

Any thoughts on whether Cancelo will start for City? Wondering if he'll play LB rather than Zinchenko. Bit wary of getting any City defenders now

Edit: It's like Pep's listening to me - he's just said Cancelo won't start yet

 

[robfosters]

I've joined the draft league, but I'm not showing up in the entrants list. Entered the main leagues too.

 

[CliffyG]

Only 5 have joined, thought loads more would be interested.

 

[XeNoN89]

Changed my team so many times over the last week. Think I've finally settled on it now!

I fancy he may eventually play Walker centrally alongside Laporte, Cancelo right. Zinchenko is safe until Mendy returns, perhaps even after as he has a great attitude and Mendy is an injury-prone tool.

Tempted to join this, but I'm already in Telegraph, FanTeam and SkySports
