Fantasy Football 08/09

Thought i would do it this year.

Team Name: Schumi's Allstars

Team:

1: Van der Sar

2: Woodgate
3: Richards
4: Campbell
5: Carragher

6: Giggs
7: Kuyt
8: Modric
9: Carrick

10: Keane
11: Defoe

12: Carson
13: Hyppia
14: Zamora
15: Arteta

Hoping for a good season, though when i used to do the Daily Telegraph fantasy league i was always rubbish :(
 
Giggs is not a good buy as he hardly plays, Kuyt actually is not bad, despite him being **** he plays a lot and actually scores about 10 goals a season, Carrick on the other hand is so-so, scores a goal now and again but someone like Cahill is a better buy. I would swap Arteta for someone cheaper and put the money into better strikers and midfield.
 
Hi there Raymond, cheers for the advice, i shall have a look around and maybe tinker with it a little.

Was the first team i put in, and managed to come in on budget.

/Edit am debating whether Rosicky or Wright Phillips would be a good bet. hmmm, decisions decisions

As weringo pointed out, im rubbish at ff and people shouldn't pay attention to me but surely it makes no sense picking defensive midfielders? :confused:

Surely an attacking player, even from a **** side, would be better?

Any idea what happens if Ronaldo does go to Madrid and we have already bought him ?.

do we get a refund and have to buy again or do we automatically get a playert of same worth ?.

my guess is he'll become 'red' as in 'injured/away' kinda thing.. and wont no longer be buyable - but he'll still stay in your team until you get rid of him

Whats everyone doing with Ronnie ?.

I bought him but just read this http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/m/man_utd/7501105.stm as we currently have free transfers I might sell him and buy someone else.

Who though ?, Lampards future is not set in stone yet & Fabregas just doesn't do it for me really, had a good start last season but faded away in Ronnie's shadow.


Hmmm.....

Well 3 months off, thats at least the first 6 weeks into the season he will be missing. That is if he stays.

Fat Frank was GREAT 2 seasons ago, last year he wasn't so good.

Fabregas was great last season, yes he goals dried up the last few months but it was an improvement over the season before that. He will get better.

The rough diamond this time round could be Modric at Spurs, a playmaker that scored 14 goals i think last season in his former team. I doubt we will see another midfielder that scores 40+ goals in a season in years, i don't think even Ronaldo can do that again.
