Just in case people don't look in last seasons thread I thought I would start one for this season coming.

Thanks to the friendly mod.

[Jw Vw]

Great stuff - looks a lot harder this year.

[MissChief]

Same thing every year. Trying to find that cheap striker who gets you 20 goals or trying to work out if you can fit aguero in without compromising your whole team.

Joined both, thanks for setting up!

I might be going mad here but how do you change the captain/vice captain? Not as obvious as previous years...

cheers

it's under each individual player now. Click on the player you want and there's an option, 'make captain'. Not a huge improvement IMO.

Brilliant, thanks!

Bumping this to the top. Have done some tweaking and now have Mahrez and Mikhitaryan in my midfield.

[Nom de ploom]

hard to spot the players from the bigger teams certain to play....

no need to worry about euro 2016 fatigue for the english players.....

can leicester play the same way and still do well....will mahrez be the force he was last season....will Payet ? who have I hexed already by selecting them in my team....

what style of play will gaurdiola go for..... will sturridge and welbeck and Carroll make it through August without injury....?

where's my pin sticker....???/

Oh god, this the worst bit of the year! I think most of the players in the PL have been in and out of the team at least once already!

Ah, that time of year has arrived again. Spend an inordinate amount of time selecting a team and structure which you truly believe will see you through to christmas. Plays wildcard after GW1.

I have modelled my team on Wenger's approach to management... have £30 mill in the bank and bought a load of youth players from the promoted sides!

[MiniMan64]

Christ alive, first bloody day and I hate this game already!

Good
2 of my players scored!

Bad
No clean sheets
Keeper didn't play
10 points on the bench not scoring
Last minute switch to transfer Redmond in didn't save
Redmond scores

FML.

[Countdown]

Absolute shocker - 13 points

too right! I actually considered not doing it this year but i'm in now and no doubt I'll get sucked into the stats and transfers and last minute changes-of-mind......

Anyone else hate the new website? Don't find it very clear or user friendly

[ajprice]

40 points! P12. It won't last

MOTD time, Linker is just in (I think) Leicester shorts.

[MiniMan64]

Everyone get their team done before the early kick off tonight?

[MissChief]

I did. Ibra Captain.

[NormalWisdom]

Just joined - "Beer Goggles"
