Lemonade Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 Howdy,Since the one a couple of seasons ago (or was it last season?) was quite succesful, I have set up another Aberdeen-Music Fantasy Football League.Pick your team etc. at fantasy.premierleague.com and there are 2 leagues to join:315897-78125 for a classic "most points wins" league.and315897-78132 for a "head to head" league. Basically every week you play against another team, and whoever's team scores the most gets 3 points, or 1 point for a draw. With 3 games to go in the season, the top 8 teams go into a knockout cup.Will you be Alex Ferguson or Alan Shearer? Time to sort the men out from the boys....

Guest idol_wild Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 Joined the league.Last season was good fun until nobody started paying any attention. Apart from the guy who won the league, that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodsinho Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 send a midfielder or defender to the bench and promote your extra striker to the first 11, little yellow arrow style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonade Posted July 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 send a midfielder or defender to the bench and promote your extra striker to the first 11, little yellow arrow style.That's sneaky. Unfortunately that means I'm going to have to start every match with Daniel Sturridge. Back to the drawing board methinks.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest idol_wild Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 What people don't seem to realise about this particular game is that the key to success is making that crucial free transfer every game week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonade Posted July 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Rathen Rovers mk III took the risky strategy of putting a cheap diddy on the bench (Nigel Quashie) on the thinking that he's bottom of my subs list and won't play anyway, thus freeing up valuable cash to sign decent strikers and a keeper. Still not convinced by my front line, not sure if it pays to have "big 4" players at the back and thus not conceding, or up front and rattling in goals. Depends on which gets you more points I suppose. I think walcott in midfield is a good shout, as I think you get extra points for your midfielders scoring and he will definitely be in the goals. Tim Cahill as captain because your captain gets double points, and Cahill scores for fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
givemeasmile Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 wouldn't have picked nani, he's going to be shite this yearI've done these things a few times, I reckon it's best to have one shite (well....cheap player) in every zone then at least 3/4 of your team is made up of good ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave-IRL Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 I found various tactics worked a treat last season at different times, but the real key to this game is working the free transfers and being jammy enough to have the guy that scores a hat trick as your captain. Or Arshavin when he scores 4! I did have Vidic as my captain during Man U's epic spell of clean sheets last season tho, which is worth 12 points a week, and I had Lampard for a bit as well, who would sometimes only earn 2 points for playing one week, then score 1, set up 2 and get man of the match the next week and be worth 30 odd points as a captain.

Lemonade Posted July 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Change your team every week to heavily features players that have a mid-week game. That way you get two sets of points per week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodsinho Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 It's nice not to feel compelled to put any players in through loyalty to the club I support for a change. Finally something good has come from relegation... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
