Is there a website that shows our league position in a graph each week over a number of years? Would like to look at the last few years or something and see how each season progressed. you can see where we were in January against where we finished across a number of seasons, to see how many times we've had an opportunity and blown it. Have a look at this if you can be bothered, can interactively see league position on each date over the last decade https://www.footstats.co.uk/index.cfm?task=team_progress @TWar

Stolen shamelessly from somewhere else Here is a few to start

Reckon Dean Smith will set them up - ultra defensively for his first game in charge got a draw written all over it unless we play well 0-0 1-0 to us 1-1 or us by a few (think I have covered all the option there 😉 )

Previously at a Canada game

He / they did spend a ridiculous / huge amount of money to get them to the PL compared to other teams in each league they got promoted from though, so there is that caveat tbh I like Howe and yes he did a good job at bournemouth 👍

This is slightly disingenuous as Mark Noble is at the end of his career (34 - after 17 years at WH and over 500 appearances for them) and will retire at the end of this season - thus his legs have gone - comparing him to JWP who is 26 is a strange one

might also be this, clubs need potential English home grown players because of Brexit, I keep hearing / reading about on football forums 🤷‍♂️

would love a bit of Lerma or Brooks tbh or even at a push Billing / Mepham

Fulham agree to loan Everton and Valencia target Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa to Napoli with £9m option to buy as they ponder fresh bid for Swansea's Matt Grimes It is from the Daily Fail though 🙄😏🤦‍♂️

I would say though, people can now ID you, through PI (if they are also in the league) so you might want to change the post to in the top 10/5/3? Unless everyone knows who you are already

well done adds cliches - its all downhill from here its a marathon not a sprint etc etc.

He’s not Thierry small, he’s just far away

71pts with Son to go Think I have 11BP's to come so 82pts Salad - 3 (Cap-6) Schmeichel - 2 DCL - 1 Ings - 1 Greenwood - 1 oh Bruno where for art thou this happens a lot so don't worry - i didn't have him either

If we start a new league in the telegraph one - it would have to start from GW2 which is a shame - I was hoping there was one already set up Is he your first sub? the order you place subs in is the order they come off the bench (unless as mentioned you haven't got enough GK or Defenders) thus its always worth changing the order depending on who they are playing. If someone doesn't play (for example you have Kane) he would be substituted for the first player on the bench (even if that player is not a striker (as you can play with just one up top), if Kane was your only striker then he would be replaced with another striker Some weeks you will have a bench packed with pts whereas you team may all on 1/2/3 pointers which is gutting! Perhaps the worst thing is a player needs to play for 60 mins to gain the Clean sheet bonus (DEF and MID) - and certain managers take people off around the 55mins to 59 mins which is a gutter see Pep roulette for this and remember if a DEF or MID gets the Clean Sheet bonus and then is subbed after 60 mins he keeps it but if you keep checking your score sometimes you will have the bonus then if the opposition scores after the 60 mins the bonus get taken away

nope, unless you have played the Bench boost Chip (which can be played once a season (as can the other chips)) - probably best to save the chips for Double Game weeks (DGW's) if a player in your starting line up doesn't play, a replacement will come off the bench as long it the team shape works (for example - you must always have a GK and minimum 3 defenders) You can make one free transfer pw (if you dont make one, it will roll over to the next week) but you can never have more than 2 FT's (if you make more than your current FT, each one will cost you 4pts - thus sometimes if you have a lot of surgery to do to your team the Wild card gives you unlimited transfers for that week (the free hit chip is something different) @OldNick You chose each week before the GW starts (once a week has started you cant do anything) - same as Cap and VCap @egg - you get 2 Wildcards per season (1st has to be used before Jan IIRC) https://fantasy.premierleague.com/help lots of FAQ in there my fav chips is Triple Captain (((C))) - use this on a DGW on Salad, Kane or someone who scores lots of points! hope that helps

good luck all Should we do a poll / vote each week for Captain Choice? For Example: 1. Week 1 Captain Salah - Norwich (A) - 95 Mane - Norwich (A)- 5 Jota - Norwich (A) - 0 TAA - Norwich (A) - 0 Toney - Arsenal (H)- 0 Bruno - Leeds (H) - 9 Greenwood - Leeds (H) - 0 Martial - Leeds (H) - 0 Havertz - Palace (H) - 2 Werner - Palace (H) - 0 Mount - Palace (H) - 1 Iheanacho - Wolves (H) - 0 Ings - Watford (A) - 1 Grealish - Spurs (A) - 0 Mahrez - Spurs (A) - 0 Other - 2 115 members have voted 115 members have voted

fair point, 4 years on his contract also at Lyon IIRC think Ndombele had played CL seasons before and looked really decent (against City) cant remember if Lyon needed to sell? cash strapped also depends on payment terms I would assume - all up front or over x amount of years

His agents and/or the PR machines at Villa and Spuds are on overdrive then Like Spurs are going to offer £40/50m for him - its levy

Agents Villa did this earlier in the Window with Smith-Rowe at Arsenal - last time I looked ESR was still an arsenal player and they made 3 bids I believe

I like to be informed
