It really is only 36 minutes left to make your final changes, this time.

"I dunno, I think Haaland will underperform this season"

Well there you go.

 

[AverageJoe]

Pep not happy with him.

Imagine what a player an angry, fired up Haaland could be.

 

[sealion]

No stones for man city

 

[Lord Camomile]

Ffffffffuck it, guess who had a last minute panic and took Nketiah out of his team in favour of Martinelli?

 

[BristolEcho]

My bench has 22+ points on it.

 

[Puddy_Tat]

seems to have been a reasonable first week

although i now have three defenders with injuries

 

[Numbers]

Which of the U75 leagues are the main one? upper or lower case?

 

[Puddy_Tat]

Which of the U75 leagues are the main one? upper or lower case?

yes

 

[elbows]

I wouldnt describe one as the main one, I would just say that one is longstanding and the other is for people who have actively engaged on these threads in more recent years.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Whereas I would say the site's branding has always been urban75

 

[jerry spuds]

Guy's I seem to have two teams in the lower case league. My new team and the old one which i couldn't log into for the new season.
I cannot see the other league.

You were never in the old league so you didn’t auto renew into it.

I will follow which of your teams does better going forward. I think the old ones winning at the moment

 

[belboid]

Why is everyone’s league score is eight points less than our actual scores?

 

[jerry spuds]

My new team is doing better. 71 points is my score,only a lunatic would not have captain Haaland and no spurs players in his starting eleven.

 

[Puddy_Tat]

i doubt this will last...



and should i remind anyone that there's another friday tea-time deadline today?

Thanks, PT. I have a lot to do, and didn't know this. Short hospital stay followed by a weekend at a festival came at the worst time...I have an auto-selection squad atm...nightmare.

I think I've missed out on H2H this year, too. Shame, that's my favourite league

 

[hermitical]

Jota was my left field pick for captain and thankfully it paid off, 24 points.

 

[Puddy_Tat]

hmm

12 points on the bench, and a growing pile of injured defenders

still top of the h2h league, though

 

[starfish]

Awful, awful week to follow a fairly poor start. Is it too early for a Wildcard?

 

[Charles Ufarley]

Is it too early for a Wildcard?

No.

 

[Puddy_Tat]

Is it too early for a Wildcard?

maybe

the (real world) premier league transfer window closes 1 september, but the saudi league thing's window does not close until 20 september - there is a risk if you do wildcard now, you might lose players to that

I'm getting very tempted - so far that Norwegian Donkey has proper let me down

 

[Puddy_Tat]

the good start to the season didn't last

and another week, another knackered defender

meh

I know the 20th has been mentioned but I think its actually the 7th. I dont know what the reason is behind the two conflicting dates being given.

 

[belboid]

Deadline day madness! I take it we've all sold Salah. Even my keyboard thinks he's gone and wants to write Sarah now.

(Saudi top flight has a deadline of the 7th, 20th for the rest of their divisions)

Waiting till next week

 

[Lord Camomile]

Bloody fuckery, posted on last season's thread, din't I

I've already had my best week of the season so far, so feels a bit churlish to be whinging, but boy did I get the order of my bench wrong...

Wilson ruining Brighton's clean sheet in the 92nd minute didn't go down well, either

 

[Lord Camomile]

Top scorer this week probably did as well you could hope for your TC, tripling Haaland's points to 60.

Their score this week is also equal to their entire score for the first three gameweeks* combined



*pre- a couple of -4 transfer deductions.

 

[belboid]

I have 100 points this week v 150 for the first three. Keeping faith in Nunez and swapping Estupinan for Ake worked out nicely.
