    If you want the challenge of another managerial post, this time in Europe, this is the one to go for...... http://en.uclfantasy.uefa.com/

    As mentioned above, it's run on the same format as the Premiership league. However, it's a lot more difficult to choose players as we've never heard of a lot of them. Just adds to the challenge though!

    I've taken the liberty of forming a private league for ourselves here, simply called Boards.ie, the entry code is 77253-14888

    All aboard the Euro gravy choo choo... departing in a couple of days

    I spent too much money on my midfield - not that you'd notice (Lampard as sub!) so my strikers are crap - should be a disaster :D

    Yepes

    Garcia (c)
    Gerrard

    Not a lot of people know much about Celtic's players.

    Hedman is the 3rd choice keeper yet he is chosen by more teams than the other 2 keepers. Laursen is nowhere near a first teamer and he is picked by over 5,000 teams. Lambert is Cetic's 2nd highest selected midfielder and he has hardly made the bench this season. Beattie selected in more teams than any other Celtic striker and he has only played 15 minutes of football this season even with Sutton out injured.

    Also, to back up what Redspider was saying about the public's opinion on Duff and Robben. They both cost 9mil and even though Robben is out for another month he is selected by 4 times as many teams as Duff.

    Do you reckon Duff will be given a game in the CL matches? He hasn't figured much so far in the league. I hope he does but I wouldn't risk him as captain....

    It looks very likely. He was given his first appearance for Chelsea just before the internationals and ran the Soton defence ragged. He had played 2 games in 4 days and since he's only back from injury Mourinho rested him aswell as Bridge and Gallas.

    “Damien was tired, he had just played two games for his country and had played every minute of both games with Ireland,” revealed Mourinho, as reported in the Star on Sunday.

    “I went to Dublin on Saturday to watch him and I know he played the full game against Switzerland.

    “It has been a hard week on our players away on international duty and it did affect us ahead of this game.

    “But I can say that Damien Duff and Wayne Bridge will be selected on Tuesday night.”

    Can't wait to see Duffer and Bridge playing against Paris, hopefully create something too. Hopefully Mourinho will realise that this Chelsea squad can tear teams to pieces if they are allowed, rather than playing everything up through the middle.

    Evra

    Hyypia

    Andrade


    Maniche

    Gerrard (C)

    Subs

    Van Steenberghe

    Hansen



    I find it amazing the number of people who are spending large sums of money on players who are out injured for months. Two players that we know of here, Smicer, @ 7M and Aliadiere @ 8M, both have long term injuries. Yet 253 and 52 people respectively have decided to invest at least 7M on them.

    We've mentioned the fact that people are stabbing in the dark on players we know are not going to play. But Smicer, Aliadiere and many others I don't know, are long term injuries and have red markers on their info boxes!!! It doesn't give details of the injury, whether long or short term, but if you don't know, I'd say it was a bit of common sense to steer clear and pick someone you know, instead of throwing away a huge amount of money.

    Some people!!

    Is that team even possible :eek: Looks way over budget to me!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 394 ✭✭DamoRed


    Yeah, that's big time BULL! The team cannot be chosen as there are three players from Real Madrid on it and only two can be chosen from one club! Also, choosing players starting upfront, leaves a big fat zero left to buy anybody else beyond Zambrotta and Dida, Roberto Carlos being the 3rd Real player cannot be bought, so 5 players short.

    I think we have a serious case of wishing on a star!

    Mind your wallets lads, Bazmo could be dipping into them if you're not careful!

    Chillax the pants there Damo!!! Of course I was taking the p1ss!!

    Sure without subs, that team comes to over 108 million!

    But it was nice of you to do the research into how the team wasn't possible.
    Well done you!! ;)

    I have Henry as my captain but he wasn't credited with his assist in yesterday's game. Can someone confirm if he actually got the assist?

    AFAIK you don't get credited for an assist if an own goal is scored.
