As per my team name, I'll give it a go but can't guarantee I won't forget/end up not bothering about it after 2 weeks (about how long I lasted last time I played, but I wasn't in any leagues then so might be different this time)

Yeah, hoping that we get a few of us and then it'll be more likely to be a success. I have played in the same league for 10 years since the time I was in the UK and we still all turn up every season!!

19, great stuff. How many have Bale in, took him out already as he's pretty obviously off to Real. Ronaldo and Bale, scary stuff

Joined.

Have Bale and RVP in my side, figured I'd pick the goal bankers and through Gerrard and Carzola in there for my assists. Mignolet in goal should pick up a few clean sheets in that Liverpool team.

I was reluctant to get Bale (and still am) but RvP should do the business again this season.

I've spread my budget across the whole squad, RVP will certainly score goals but he's too expensive and if he gets injured you've blown 15% of your entire squad budget on a single player

For the pedants out there I know it's actually 14% but that sounds a bit too geeky!!!

You run that risk with any player though. Have to hedge your bets.

I was tossing up Benteke given he is comparatively cheap. But how often does a new player have a brilliant debut season and then suffer second season syndrome. Ba being the most recent.

I made the Torres mistake last year...cost me a fortune - lost money when i flogged him several weeks later.

I'm sticking with Lambert and RVP up front then spending decent coin in the midfield...that's where the points are earned.
