'But can he do it on a wet, cold winter night in …'- League

Jan Oblak this morning landed at Brussels airport ... being as close as he was to Anderlecht's home turf he hailed a cab and made his way towards the coast to join his new team mates ...

Close call that ...he nearly got assaulted by 150 10year old little Anderlecht supporting punks... but then one of their mam's sent a a group text saying it was time to come home, brush their pearlies and hit the bunkbed

Maldjd23 · 08-11-2014 1:58am

So...15 players in! Really had to outdo myself when it came to scouting for this league! Halilovic and Sandro Ramirez the pick of the bunch. maybe Jordan Rossiter aswell, have high hopes for him!

Think it's between you and Cardiff tbh...who knows with the game though!

My offer is probably the worst of the four on reflection, maybe I'll sneak it anyway

I think the cups will be secondary competitions for everyone with whoever has the best second string winning them. Def won't be me. My second string will have an average of about 75

Mine will probably be 70!

I'll be lucky to have a second string

Burlap_Sack · 08-11-2014 2:59pm

My policy of only bringing in youth should lead to an interesting season judging by some of the players others have got in...Going to bring in one 90+ to bolster the confidence:)

bazarakus · 08-11-2014 3:00pm

But if everyone's second strings are 70-75 rated then we'll all have an equal chance in the cup and the shield, no?

This will also be my issue for the first season I reckon... Should have a strong spine in my team, which was the plan, with hopes to fill it out over the next season or two! I think cash might be a bit more useful in this GW than I have experienced in others.

Burlap_Sack · 08-11-2014 3:06pm

Just checked and I've gone from the highest average rating at 86 to joint lowest in div1 at 83:eek::pac:

Ardennes1944 · 08-11-2014 6:22pm

So....I may have not known that you could buy from externals (I forgot this was different from the Copa and Boards leagues) so blew half my budget on a not very good player thinking it was the best I could get and now I dont have enough money to buy any more and only 21 players so cant trade 2 against a new one either :pac:
