    This has started up again and I've set up a boards.ie private league

    http://en.uclfantasy.uefa.com/

    Code to join the league is 2353-805

    Mods - Can we leave this thread seperate from the Premier League one until the Champions League gets going. Just so people are aware of the Code etc, then the chat will move to the main Fantasy Football thread.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,346 ✭✭✭blindpilot


    I'm in. Usually do crap in these. Hopin for an improvement.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Cool I'll give this a look. I love these thingamajigs. :cool:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,013 ✭✭✭✭eirebhoy


    Interest in this always seems to drop after the group stages. Try to keep this going lads! :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,570 ✭✭✭✭Frisbee


    So much easier to make a team in this than in the Premier League one I think....


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,536 ✭✭✭Dolph Starbeam


    Grand i'm in, liking the look of it...

    I couldn't be too bothered so i'll show my team

    Vercoutre

    Bosingwa - Cannavaro - Carragher - Chivu

    Walcott - Deco - Nasri - Santi Cazorla

    Messi --- Van Nistelrooy



    So your thoughts? I think its pretty solid:)

    Boruc
    ----Mellberg
    Krompkamp
    Dainelli
    -Ronaldo-Sneijder(c)-Deco-McGeady-Juninho-
    Mutu----Berbatov

    Subs Bejap, Pogrebynak, Samaras, Khagush

    Taking a bit of a risk with Ronaldo and to a lesser extent Berbatov. Hope it comes together and I think Pogrebynak is a decent back up anyways.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,014 ✭✭✭✭titan18


    My team is

    Boruc
    Bosingwa Ferdiand Abidal
    Fabregas Diego McGeady MOntolivo
    Messi Adebayor PAzzini

    Subs:Coupet,Lugano,Gourcuff,Lewandowski


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,013 ✭✭✭✭eirebhoy


    I'd pick Maloney instead of McGeady personally. He's looking the much better player of the 2 at the moment and is cheaper. He'll also probably take right footed set pieces.

    Any good defenders not off Chelsea, Liverpool, Man Utd or Barca playing for clubs that will keep clean sheets?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,004 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    I'm in for the fun of it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,536 ✭✭✭Dolph Starbeam


    Ye i've Boruc as sub goalie, i wouldn't pick as 1st choice cause i can't see Celtic keeping many clean sheets:o Nasri, Messi and Van Nistelrooy are my main men, easy easy:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,393 ✭✭✭elshambo


    Joined, cheers mate, these things more fun when u got a small league to be in

    Uses real names, what happened to anonn... anonm... what happened to nobody knowing yer name on tin'ternet:confused::D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,909 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Usually get bored of this after a few weeks but I'll go in anyway. Xavi as captain as always.

    Cech

    Srna
    Vidic
    Mertesacker----Chivu

    Quaresma---Xavi
    Sneijder
    Nasri

    Torres
    Trezeguet

    subs: Zaz, Bernhardt, Lugano, Maloney

    It may change though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,283 ✭✭✭Smegball



    Cech

    Brown
    Puyol
    Mertersacker----

    Xavi---Quaresma----Ballack----Aquilani-

    --Torres----Pogrebynak---Berbatov

    Subs: Srna, Bardon, Lewandoski, Olimpa

    Subs are cheap as chips as you can see :)

    The way Celtic are playing at the moment I really don't think McGeady will even make the team on Wednesday. If you have McGeady, switch him for Maloney. You won't regret it. :)

    So this is what Rosickys at! http://en.uclfantasy.uefa.com/M/tipster.mc
    Interestingly enough he picked McGeady

    Quite happy with my team but maybe not enough spread from different teams


    Casillas

    Lucio
    Carvahlo
    Chivu----Clichy

    Quaresma---J.Cole
    Kuyt
    Nasri

    Vucinic


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,013 ✭✭✭✭eirebhoy


    Ok but its on your head if this fails :P
    I have Maloney as my captain for the first week. :D J.Cole at home to Bordeaux or Diego home to Anorthosis would probably were the probably better choices for captain but I'll take the risk.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,014 ✭✭✭✭titan18


    Real look really good for the first week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,589 ✭✭✭✭Necronomicon


    Big question mark over Ronaldo. He did wonders last season but I'm still not sure he'll start against Villareal, despite being available.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,014 ✭✭✭✭titan18


    My new team is

    Cech
    Carvalho
    Materazzi->Abidal
    Clichy
    Afellay->Juninho
    Diego
    Walcott
    Lucho Gonzalez->Xavi
    Ibrahimovic->Schweinsteiger
    Van Nistelrooy(C)
    Benzema

    Subs:Boruc,Maloney,Lugano,Lewandowski. My subs are now Shovkovskiy,Lewandowski,Didi,Onder Turaci.

    So,providing that all my palyers start,I have a good side

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,046 ✭✭✭eZe^


    I joined, my first fantasy league team so I don't really know the drill. My team;


    VV

    --Cole----Chivu----Mellberg----Aurelio---

    Gago---Aquilani

    ----Quaresma
    Babel

    Adebayor----Etoo


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,013 ✭✭✭✭eirebhoy


    Cech

    Carragher
    Evra
    D.Alves
    Maicon

    J.Cole
    Maloney
    Zyryanov
    Diego

    Berbatov
    Pogrebnyak

    Gourcuff & Cavenaghi my decent subs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,589 ✭✭✭✭Necronomicon


    Late entry after much deliberation:

    Reina

    Brown----Chiellini----Lucio
    ----Deco
    Xavi---L.Gonzalez---Walcott
    Aguero---Pogrebnyak---V.Nistelrooy(c)

    Subs: Boruc - Srna - Maloney - Lewandowski

    Still a bit iffy about it, but it's late. I'll see how gameweek 1 goes anyway. Sure, transfers only cost 2 points in this so it's easier to change than the Prem one. I think I might take eirbhoys advice on board and stick Maloney in for Lucho Gonzalez for the first round of fixtures.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,692 ✭✭✭✭OPENROAD


    Just made the deadline :p bit rushed to get a team in so many changes will be made.


  • Advertisement
  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,595 ✭✭✭✭KevIRL


    33 points from tonights games. 5 more to play tomorrow including captain.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,630 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    I wanted to make a few changes to the team I picked a week ago but I missed the deadline so this is the team I'm left with:

    The Berba Shop

    Valdes

    Sagna----Ferdinand----Gallas
    ----McGeady
    Lucho Gonzalez----Deco---Quaresma
    Van Nistelrooy (c)--Lisandro--Berbatov

    Subs: Volkan, Scott Brown, Ujfalusi, Emeghara.

    I picked up ten points today with 8 players still to come.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,570 ✭✭✭✭Frisbee


    Not happy. Chivu didnt play and i put in Bojan for Aguero at the last minute... :mad:

    Chivu and Aurelio didn't make appearances either.. Damn not researching the injury lists... :pac::pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,909 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    An inspired decision to put Xavi as captain. The little hero bagged a goal and an assist for 20 points.

    No Chivu for me either but 40 points overall with 5 players still to go.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,889 ✭✭✭Third_Echelon


    woop... 57 points so far..

    Gerrard as captain. Lampard goal and 2 assists, Xavi goal and assist...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,589 ✭✭✭✭Necronomicon


    26 points from 4 players...mostly from Xavi and Aguero. Have 7 playing tonight, including captain.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,536 ✭✭✭Dolph Starbeam


    Uggghhh a disasterous 19 pts.:( 7 players playing tonight so fingers crossed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,014 ✭✭✭✭titan18


    26 points from 4 players.With my captain to play tonight


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,727 ✭✭✭✭Sherifu


    Picked up 20 points from 4 players. Xavi did well for me. I'm sorry I didn't have Gerrard in there now :(
    I'm expecting big things from Adebayor the captain tonight.
