Well on the basis that someone on the FPL CTC forum wanted someone to set up an automatic team changer when the NTI threshold was breached anything may be possible!

Good to see we have some players on here.

I entered a team without even reading the rules :P

What's this moving off the bench you mentioned? :oops:


On another note, why do only 18% of managers have Lionel Messi!?

£18.0m reasons - got Dzeko and Soldado for that.

There again Messi will get 60+ goals this season won't he?

Yup.
They didn't sort my account in time so haven't got a mad amount of teams.Blessing in disguise as last year subbing took ages when you add in the pondering time.First monthly includes August and September.Didn't get enough teams to aim one or two at that.I'd say most were expecting Messi to get a hattrick after that start by Barcelona.Maureen gave Torres another try I see.Getting both Persie and Messi in a team seems quite a task at the outset at least.

Probably because some of the 82% of those who didn't pick Messi were aware that when the transfer amnesty closed at 12.45 on Saturday, it was looking as though he might not make the opening La Liga game on Sunday with a minor leg muscle problem.

Perhaps they were also aware that Martino has said that he's going to pull Messi sooner from the action than his predecessors did when the game is won, implying that Messi's goal tally is far less important than the following game.

I'm sure they'll just pump some more HGH in him to speed up his recovery times :mrgreen:
