Cheers for the welcome, and I hope my midfield do the job for me this season

Look out for Jay Rodriguez (ex Burnley player, now at Southampton) this season as he is quality

Don't worry about a lack of knowledge, most of us don't follow teams in the English premier league. I'm happy to provide advice and Warspite has been as well. We might not be right, but we'll try!

If there's enough interest then we can probably set up similar games for the European competitions and upcoming World Cup, if the lack of knowledge about the English league is putting people off.
I chose the English league as I've already got a team set up in this game and it was free. If there are other free games based on other nations I'll happily give them a go as well.

Well, Mignolet aside, you've got to be happy with that first half. Liverpool look unrecognisable - very fluid with Coutinho, Sturridge and Aspas.

The fact he can't even get into the West Ham starting XI says it all really.

Doubling up on Liverpool defenders was a good move - although I think you may lose some for Agger giving away the penalty*.

Snodgrass apparently is not even in the Norwich squad today - may be that is why I got a point for Lucas (one of my subs).

* EDIT - not so.

Status: offline 		A decent, if unspectacular start for my lot. Not helped by Wenger not starting Cazorla and Snodgrass not making the Norwich team And Stekelenburg has picked up an injury.

Still, Lambert scored and I told you all that Wolfswinkel was going to be good! 28 points from day 1, I'm expecting good things from Chelsea, because if they're rubbish then I'm buggered already! At least I remembered to change my goalkeepers before the match.

When the points update we can have a more in-depth analysis of who messed up the most! The annoying thing is I considered changing my team around to fit Benteke in but decided Villa were likely to struggle against Arsenal. I'd also considered putting Nolan (West Ham) in the team instead of Giaccherini. Bah!


This clearly shows what I know and why my advice might not be very good

A late change of mind so this was my team.

de Gea,

Evra, Hangeland, Ivanovic, Johnson(Liv)

Mata, Coutinho, Routledge, Colback

van Persie(c), Lambert

Bench Davis(gk) Johnson(Eve), O'shea, Naismith
