johnfinlay The Premier League’s new South American recruits, Luis Suarez and David Luiz, both scored goals and showcased their great potential – as Chelsea silenced a Tevez-less Manchester City and Liverpool continued their good form under Kenny Dalglish to brush aside Sunderland. Chelsea have rekindled their Premier League title challenge – moving 7 points behind Manchester United with a game in hand – but £50 million Fernando Torres once again failed to impress…
ok ok is getting both luiz and Cashey insane,over the next few weeks I can get lolorov and Vida to well you know who...any thoughts?
i dont like doubling up unless its a keeper
I am planing both of them if that helps u.
I think I might get both. Good fixture, Cashley doesn't get rotated and Luiz looks safe.
Thanks for the comments guys
Luiz is going to cost 7.5mill at the start of next season.
Leighton Baines at Liv 6.5 - bargain.
I would love that! Having said that, if Liverpool got Adam too he wouldn’t be such an attractive proposition. All hypothetical of course! Baines may well keep the hefty price tag next year even if he remains at Goodison – He has gone up in price after all!
No they forgot about Adam. Young, Baines and Jarvis are their targets.
If Villa went down then they would have to take less for Young – But then he’d have about 10 clubs bidding for him so I’m not sure if Liverpool would be favourites then.
Good point on Adam. Adam is going somewhere though, he won’t stay. I don’t think Blackpool would sell to Liverpool actually, their chairman didn’t seem best pleased with them in January did he! Wil be very interesting at Anfield over the summer though. I hope we do a swap deal with anyone, for anyone for Joe Cole.
Best clarify – That is Ashley and not Luke right?! 🙂 What a difference a change in ownership, ambition and budget makes. We were sniffing around Luke Young last season and settled for Konchesky instead!
Yeah, it will be interesting to see if Luiz keeps this up. A friend of mine is a Benfica season ticket holder and reckons that the fans there didn't rate him that highly (certainly not compared to Luisão).
And Luiz wasn't a goalscorer at all in Portugal - only 4 goals in 72 matches for Benfica. I've still bought him, mind you.
On the other hand, Kolarov should be a bargain...
Stuart holden out for the season

I saw Inception over the weekend, and I'm not sure what people mean when they say you have to watch it 3 times.
What might I have missed by only watching it once?
most people are slow and so need to watch it multiple times to understand it I suppose.
im not sure about 3 times...possibly twice...i understood it first time but would like to see it again.
Did you understand the ending with the top spinning?
Does anyone understand it? I'm sure it's deliberately inconclusive for the audience to make up their own minds.
Nah mate the top didnt topple so it means it wasnt real and he was in someone else's dream,maybe his wife's dream
You've got it wrong.
It's left open ended, you see the top buckle and then it cuts so you don't get to see whether it stops or not - the point is what pork pie said above - it's supposed to be inconclusive.
So exactly how long should they show it spinning,for 15 mins? come on,he said if it topples your in reality it didnt and they ended the movie so common sense says he is in someone elsels dream...simple
They showed it for just long enough.
The point is that it buckles just before it cuts, so any longer and you'd see either it would keep spinning, or it would fall and you would know one way or the other.
Since it cuts just before that, it's inconclusive.
Martin Luther king: I have a dream.
Leonardo DiCaprio: Oh yeah?! I had a dream in a dream in a dream!
It's multilayered - so some things won't have clicked in the first watch because at the point they happen you don't know their meaning yet, but once you know the outcome and watch it again you see some extra bits - the start with the old chinese man and the spinner springs to mind.
Off the top of my head i'm not sure.
I liked the movie but i didn't find that any extra watches added that much to it, there is a bit but it's not gonna rock your world.
only needed to see it once to know it’s a bit sh*t
Just done a bit of research for next season (sad I know) but Taarabt doesn’t always take the pens for Rangers – Helguson has done too. I checked that Taarabt was on the pitch at the time Helguson took them - and vice versa – It seems there isn’t a definite taker.
prob have to ask a rangers fan about it...might be one of those things where if they win the pen then they dont take it or vice versa..like arsenal used to do.
Gameweek 33
How many DGW players people got?
I have 6 at the moment
Foster, Johnson, Luiz, Lampard, RVP, Zigic (hopefully)
Prob look to get an Ars midfielder too.
Foster,Luiz,Cashley,Nasri,RVP capt Fat One
Foster , Malouda, Nasri, Luiz
Foster Luiz Nasri Lampard Walcott RVP Zigic
which fools own nasri?
i support arsenal and i wouldn't buy him
Foster, Luiz, Lampard, Nasri, Fabregas, RVP, Zigic, Torres.
Foster, Luiz, Carr, Nasri, RVP.
Thinking of bringing in Lamps, but it's gonna cost me two of the following players: Rooney, Suarez, VDV or Nani.
Not sure if it's worth it, as I probably would want the same players back after GW33.
Here's something I'm curious to know about..
What was the price of CR on FPL?
Who's jumping or already jumped on the carroll bandwagon? Not one for me. He was awful yesterday and while he is a handful, he's not the main man like at newcastle and think defenders are starting to wise up to him. £85m between him and torres is staggering on current form.
he played ok actually, had a a bullet header luckily saved on the line
exactly, great header, gaurantee there would be a bit of buzz about him on here if that header had gone in, he could have had an assist for a wild Mereiles miss, and that header, so he wasn't great, but still looks like he should be back to his goal a game form soon, not for me with fixtures either though, but that doesn't stop some people and it didn't stop Carroll from scoring against the top teams earlier in the season.
hrunny, I was at the game mate and he was shocking. Fair enough he had that header, but he kept falling over, misplacing passes and just didn't look a threat. Fair enough he's just came back from injury, I'm just saying I don't think he'll rack up as many points as when he was at Newcastle. Suarez seems to be the main man.
He's only gonna get better, he will get chances and i don't think it'll be long before he's back on top. More importantly earlier in the season he was so easy to have in your team and not have to worry about fixtures etc so i'm gambling with him rather than swapping around other strikers.
I have Suarez ATM. Might swap to Carroll in a few weeks. Frees up money for Lamps as well.
£85m between Carroll and Torres is staggering on current form.
What?!?! Am I just misinterpreting this sentence badly?
Oh, you mean a cumulative total (rather than difference between them)? Though I'm sure both will struggle to truly justify their prices, but it's way too early to call either a flop or waste of money, which seems to be the general reaction. To Torres, in particular.
Is there a seasoned footy gambler on here at the minute?
Currently 60 behind leader and been closing relatively fast over the past few months. 10 green arrows which I am more than happy with but need to keep it going!
Here's my rival, my team is linked.
http://fantasy.premierleague.com/M/eventhist.mc?id=1104890
I am well prepared for the doubles, gonna keep zigic now until then i think. I haven't got anything that glaringly needs changing have i?
Still no news on Djourou and szczney?? think either will be back for 33?
Wenger said 6 weeks at least for Djourou so he will miss out. I think Sz season is over.
Djourou is having a shoulder arthroscopy today. If it's good news, he'll be out for around six weeks. If it's bad news, he'll be out for the rest of the season.
Cheers guys.... I may need to tackle the run in with only begovic between the sticks 🙁
Congrats on yesterday mate. you were the better team and deserved it.
Cheers bud. Was a cracking game, I think we edged it, Celtics big players didn't show up. It should make for an exciting league run in 🙂
aye ur right, Samaras got his contract so he can put his feet up. Only player for us was Kayal. You boys played well. yu went for it yesterday and got tactics spot on. think it will go right down to the last day of the season.
I thik his hand was forced with bartleys injury as i think he would have played. but im glad we attacked and played expansive football. why you's offered samaras a new deal Il never know he's a liability.
stoke miss gameweek 33 remember
buggerr.... 🙁
who would u bench from this front 8?
gutierrez barton lampard adam nani
rvp bent torres
im thinking bent at the moment
Gutierrez
anyone else think they should be fired for how much time they spend on here during working hours? 😛
long and boring int week coming
I agree but scotland v brazil on sunday 😉
nice 10 green arrows on the bounce
money to be made this weekend on accumulators!
I love a bit of international betting. I 've not seen any fixtures yet but i'll put a few lines on.
I heard peterboro are 6/4 tonight and could be worth a punt.
i enjoy internationals too. altho ive been let down by 1 result on big accumulators so many times. once i needed france to beat israel for over 1k and they drew!
you give me some bets and I'll do it hillbilly 😉
haha, i may go for Oldham v Colchester tomorow night. it's got draw written all over it. If you are brave then 0-0
Okkk how are these proposed transfers for gw32 having two free
coleman - luiz
shawx - cole
vdv - richardson
zigic - welbeck
I will more than likely change my tune about 5 times but as a first draft what say you?
Cripey, Blacburn have conceded 13 goals in their last 4 away games, was thinking that I might prefer Tevez at home to Sunderland next GW but City at home means little these days in terms of attacking returns and Arsenal and RVP look far more assured of goals at the Emirates (bar the blank last week of course!)
what happens in FFL cup if scores level? overall rank or previous score?
goals; assists ;yellows but not sure...
It's very early I know but I'm bored, would u save a transfer with this team (barring injuries):
Foster Harper
Luiz Smalling Dawson Baird Walker
Nani VDV Young Lampard Adam
RVP Rooney Wellbeck
I can then look to prepare for DGW/blanks the week after.
Any advice for transfer to the below crippled squad this week? I don't know where to start...
Foster, Stockdale
Baines, Coleman, Kolarov, Djourou, Kelly
Nani, VDV, Nasri, A Young, Arteta
RVP, Berbatov, Zigic
Bank 1.2m
Arteta to Adam and for the next gw Kolarov to Luiz but Arteta to Adam is all you need for now
Just saw Inception for the first time too. It was good fun, but in no way deep. Wouldn't see any season to watch it again. Now, Battlestar Galactica - that I would like an explanation for!
What the new series? I keep getting told to watch that.
Yes, the new one. Entertaining. Nothing wrong with the old one either but it didn't have existentialist mysteries...
Oh, and the other film I got was Ong Bak 2. Incredible film. Most of the way through, I was thinking "okay, the plot isn't great, it's there to tie the action scenes together, and that's ok".
And then in the last 10 minutes, it all suddenly makes sense.
But the fight sequences are just incredible, best I've ever seen, which was previously Ong Bak.
Tony Jaa == best martial artist ever. EVER.
OMG I LOVE TONY JAA
now that is a youtube marathon I have been guilty of many times
You seen Ong Bak 2? The drunken style sequence? Incredible.
http://dimewars.com/Video/Tony-Jaa-Drunken-Style-In-Ong-Bak-2--Still-No-Theater-Date-.aspx?bcmediaid=ac17da34-fc48-4e97-b807-f1cb53b03222
Got 0.8 in the bank. Coleman & Baines > Luiz & Terry worth 8 point hit? Or Baines > Luiz before next price rise?
keep baines and coleman for another week atleast surely
With the international break coming up, time to step back and review our squads. Consequently, I would be grateful if anyone would be kind enough to post any suggestions regarding my team:
Al-hasbi (Mignolet)
Luiz, Smalling, Simpson (Foley, Kelly)
Nani, Fabs, Nasri, VDV, Adam
Tevez, RVP (Ameobi)
Any help would be VERY welcome!
-____-
The time to review our squads is surely when we know who's fit or not, not 2 weeks before the next game with internationals in between?
lampard just seems a bit of a hopeful punt honestly.. it's just that
1.chelsea have fantastic fixtures
2.there's no one in their forward line who seems secure
3.essien, ramires are'nt gr8 punts fpl wise
Lamps is'nt attacking as much as b4 and takes horrible free kicks. i'm gonna double up on chelsea's defense and look elsewhere.. 13 million.. my oh my
When did FPL started? History showns only 5 last years, but i kinda remember playing it in highschool. Anyone?
Unfortunately, I only have 0.2 in the bank, Fratboy. I'd love to have Lampard!
Yes, Soop. "Review", not make immediate changes. The changes are made immediately before the games begin to, as you state, make sure everyone that one wants on their squad is fit.
However, one can certainly begin transfer strategies now, and see how fitness holds out during the break.
Again, thanks to all for your invaluable advise.
Looking at this for a WC team to set me up for the run in, any thoughts?
Foster Hennessy
Luiz Dawson Coleman Kolarov Walker
Fabregas VDV Nani Adam Walcott
Carroll Tevez RVP
Adam + Walcott seems a better bet than Nasri + Hitzlsperger, though i'd really prefer Nasri + Adam.
Hennessy doesn't realy appeal but seems to be the best choice to rotate with Foster for the rest of the season.
Tevez almost seems like a punt considering his last few games, you really want him?
I refuse to get Rooney so there don't seem to be better options really. He has done well for me all season so i'm confident he'll come good sooner rather than later.
If Torres perks up then i might get him instead at some point.
Because i don't like him - i'd be much happier if he snapped both his legs every time he played so there is a real conflict of interest there.
I'd rather play this game backing the players i like because that makes it more fun for me than cheering on players that i can't stand. Hence the overkill Arsenal representation in my team.
I see, however silly an philosophy that is, at least you are willing to admit it.
I have the same issue with Nasri though, it's just lucky he's not very good. 😛
Indeed. Fully aware it's not the best tactic, but it makes the game more fun so might as well play it that way imo. Done well enough up til now doing it.
*I don't *really* hope he snaps his legs either, but i definitely prefered it a couple of months when he was skying penalties and generally looking shit.
Giving him at least the Sunderland game, will have a rethink after that. Kinda want to stick with him since i've held on so long.
Got a big enough lead that i can afford a couple of gambles - Fabs being the other one i suppose.
can you ppl suggest anyone in the place of saha for the coming 2-3 gws....got 2.0 in bank...???....got to do the transfer now....already got rvp and berba...
Carroll? Welbeck? Zamora?
Am thinking Adam and RVP are essential for next week and beyond, might try and get Luiz week after
Luiz' price is going to skyrocket before the next GW i reckon.
