Fantasy Premier League Draft

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Didn't really want to accept that trade as I take a big step down in midfield, but I kinda wanna shake things up and see how it goes. One of the best aspects of this style of fantasy.

Ha yep, I wasn't keen on losing Lukaku, and was never going to straight swap it - gotta give something to get something - was going to offer Stones instead of Morgan, but made little sense to give a MCI defender and get the MCI keeper - here's hoping Stones keeps starting and city start getting some clean sheets. Fan forums of both sides said to be unhappy, but excited, by the moves of the respective GMs.

The offer was more to open up a dialogue really, I didn't think it was much of an offer but I figured you'd counter with something if you were open to a deal.

 

[ripper868]

Always open babeh. leaves me pretty light in the forwards and the free agent pool is dire, will be exploring other trade options tonight

 

[Cabinet96]

Subtle brag, but I can't believe I have Costa, Alexis, Walcott and Lallana in my team.

 

[Pothas]

Costa the one that went much later? Hard to believe now but remember in the summer there was a lot of talk about how he was finished at Chelsea.

 

[ripper868]

Sent a trade offer cabs...

 

[Cabinet96]

Costa the one that went much later? Hard to believe now but remember in the summer there was a lot of talk about how he was finished at Chelsea.

I got Lallana really late but Costa wasn't until round 5 or 6 I think. Wouldn't be surprised if Batshuayi went before him.

 

[Uppercut]

Costa the one that went much later? Hard to believe now but remember in the summer there was a lot of talk about how he was finished at Chelsea.

Yeah I think the draft happened at a brief moment when he seemed certain to leave. I remember thinking it was odd because he's such a Conte-type player.

Are we going to have a set of rules to govern trades before the play-offs? I'd support either a ban completely or a seeding based thing to "force" say 1 or 2 trades from teams that have been eliminated?

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Thought I had set a Trade Deadline day, but seems not. Was going to set it at the end of March, and will do so unless people have any objections?

 

[marc71178]

Works for me

 

[ripper868]

(y)

 

[ripper868]

Accept the trade dcye....

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

I offered the same trade to you earlier in the season haha. It took more then and it would take more now.

 

[ripper868]

Haha, hence the offer . Ill offer Capoue and Deeney as sweeteners. Crazy to knock in 4 goals.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Kane, Lukaku and Llorente are absolutely carrying me.

 

[marc71178]

I dumped Llorente just before he started scoring.

I won't be winning the knock-out that's for sure.

 

[ripper868]

7 wins in a row...bring on the playoffs...think I've knocked over Groin Strain 3 times h2h as well.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Losing Kane is probably gonna end my season, always tough when a first round pick goes down.
