As mentioned above its the defenders that I find vastly more expensive than usual

There's some good defenders in 5.5 bracket and couple of almost guaranteed 4.0 starters, which is what i've gone for in defense

I saw some 4m ones but no idea the likely hood of em starting

I'm up for this, joined!

MissChief · 7 Aug 2018 at 15:49

I thought there was one already but it looks like whoever was the admin didn't renew it. In!

Don't forget deadline this weekend is 7pm on Friday!

I'm in - Kane'd and Unable

Does anyone know if Fred is likely to be a starter for utd? Seems a good deal at 6.0m

Liquid_Entity · 8 Aug 2018 at 14:15

Who knows with Mardy Mourinho. I was tempted with Lingard but not regular enough in Utd team. Bet he proves me wrong now.

I would imagine Fred will definitely start, but he's not likely to get that many goals or assists so he's probably a waste of money from a fantasy football perspective. Find the extra 0.5 million from somewhere and go for someone like Richarlison, Sessegnon, Jota, or if you can find an extra million then Mkhitaryan is a good shout.

I've opted for this as first XI.

Allison, Maquire, Bertrand, alonso, schurrle, salah, Richarllson, grob, son and front two of firmino and zaha.

Very midfield heavy so could end badly

Son is going to the Asian games. I would be really surprised if he plays the first game, and he'll definitely miss a few after that:

Thanks for heads up!

Stuck in Mina for Jones as not sure what CB's Man Utd will play.

XeNoN89 · 10 Aug 2018 at 12:55

There are 3 chicken tikka mo salah's in the league lol.

made some final changes to defense today, downgraded second keeper to 4.0 and upgraded another defender to 6.0. Now i'm pretty happy!

Why didn't you call it OCUK league and why get non forum members to play. I thought the idea was that it was a league between us.

robfosters · 10 Aug 2018 at 13:36

I've setup an OCUK head 2 head league too. You can join if you fancy it. Code is 4187668-935696

Why wasn't the old league just reinstated?

Because the league admin needed to do it. And they didn't. I think it was @Balb0wa but he didn't respond when I tagged him in the previous thread.

Joined the H2H league, only two in it now!

Deadline is 7pm TONIGHT.

Gooner Leroy · 10 Aug 2018 at 14:26
