Looks like first waiver pick for me again then 8-)

Don't think anyone decent has popped into the system though.

Its a pity that there is not a money element to the draft game. I would love to be able to make transfer bids for others league members players. Trying to improve a team is very difficult with the poor quality of players available on waiver/ free agents.

Six of my players with 1 pointers :cry:

Also managed to pick the wrong goalkeeper. Liverpool 1 - Crystal Palace 0, yet Mignolet gets 6 points and Hennessey has 9 on the bench :x

Must confess I'm clueless how this waiver stuff works. I try to sign people but nothing happens, what's the trick?

Your transaction history suggests you haven't bid on anyone yet?

Just done again and it works, so maybe the ones I was trying to get were already taken by someone ahead of me in the order.

But that would show as a failed waiver with an X rather than blank?

I'd pressed 'sign' and it had looked like it was set, but next time I looked it wasn't there.

Today, after a similar fail, it now seems to have worked. Really can't see why. Anyway, may be ok now, ta.

David Silva didn't last long on the free agents list :D

Shame I couldn't snap him up to replace anyone in my threadbare midfield.

Suspected he would be most peoples (unsurprisingly foot of the table got him - SE) so went tactically elsewhere first :wink:

Obviously my masterplan has gone under the radar. Bottom of the pack to pick up the discards, then watch out! At least, that's the theory!.....

Absolutely no chance of making up ground from the scraps available to transfer in.

Injuries to the admittedly terrible Benteke and Mounie have led to ridiculous punts on Niasse and Depoitre.

I think 9 is too many in the league, especially for the managers drawn low in the draft. It's hard when injuries hit your premier players. Two or three leagues of about 5-6 teams, with promotion & relegation would be more interesting, realistically, over the season. I'm struggling now Aguero's gone, but I still think I'm solid, other than my frontline, 19pts behind the leader.
